Personal Umbrella Policy (PUP)
Accidents happen.
For example, while driving home on a slippery road, your 17-year-old accidentally collides with the vehicle ahead of him. Or, a guest in your home slips and falls, seriously injuring her back.
Your home and auto insurance policies will provide protection for covered incidents of bodily injury liability and property damage liability, up to the policy limit. But what if your legal liability exceeds the limits of your policy? Or someone sues you for a liability claim that's not covered by your other policies?
That's where we can help.
Be prepared.
A Personal Umbrella Policy (PUP) works with your existing liability coverage, providing additional protection.
Additional benefits of a PUP:
- You won't have to face court alone. If you're sued over an incident covered under your personal umbrella policy, your PUP will typically retain and pay for an attorney to represent you in court.
- Your coverage goes with you everywhere. So, you're coverd no matter where you are, including outside of the U.S.
- Helps with gaps in your coverage. Homeowners and auto policies don't cover certain types of incidents, like those alleging slander. But a personal umbrella policy help provide protection for this kind of incident, as well as others.
- Your policy pays on your behalf. In the event of a covered claim, you won't have to pay out of your own pocket first and submit for reimbursement.
- Reimbursement for lost wages. You will be reimbursed for the wages lost for your absence from work for a court appearance, up to the limits specified for the benefit in the policy.
How to tell if a PUP may be right for you.
Not everyone needs a personal umbrella policy. So how do you know if you do? It depends on what you need to help protect. Start by looking at your assets. What do you have to lose? A house, you savings, a boat? These things, and more, could be put at risk in a loss situation. A PUP can help you protect all of them.
Certain other factors in your life may also create a higher need for a PUP. If you have young drivers on your auto policy, for example, or if you volunteer within the community, you could bear some risk of liability.
Contact The Sloan Agency to learn more about what a PUP policy can do for you.
