Umbrella Insurance in New Jersey That Protects Your Future

What Happens If a Claim Costs More Than Your Policy Covers?

Most New Jersey families don’t realize how quickly liability claims can exceed the limits of their auto insurance or homeowners insurance policies. If you’re responsible for a major accident—such as a serious car crash or a fire that damages neighboring units—your base coverage may only pay part of the total cost. Umbrella insurance adds a powerful extra layer of liability protection, stepping in after your existing limits are exhausted so you’re not paying the remainder out of pocket. With lawsuits and medical costs rising across NJ, we help you choose coverage that shields your assets, income, and long-term peace of mind.

What We Help With

Extra Liability Protection (Above Auto & Home Policies)
If you’re responsible for an accident with damages that exceed your auto or home limits, umbrella coverage pays the remainder. For example, if a car accident results in $800,000 in damages but your auto policy covers $300,000, umbrella insurance helps cover the additional $500,000.

Coverage for Serious Injury Claims
Umbrella insurance helps protect you from high-cost medical liabilities, pain-and-suffering awards, and legal settlements—common in severe NJ accident cases. It reduces the financial shock of major claims.


Review Your Home Coverage →


Coverage for Property Damage Liability
If you cause damage to someone else’s vehicle, home, or property and the costs exceed your underlying policy limits, umbrella coverage fills the gap. This includes incidents like large multi-vehicle crashes or fires that spread to neighboring units.


Protection Against Certain Lawsuits
Many umbrella policies include personal injury protections such as libel, slander, and defamation—important in a time when social media disputes can escalate.


What Umbrella Insurance Won’t Cover
It doesn’t apply to your own property damage, business liabilities unless you add specific coverage, or intentional acts. We help clarify every detail so you know exactly where umbrella protection applies.

Your Umbrella Insurance Questions, Answered Clearly

  • What does umbrella insurance cover exactly?

    It covers liability costs that exceed the limits of your auto, home, or other policies—often including bodily injury, property damage, and personal injury claims such as libel or slander.

  • How much umbrella insurance do I need if I live in NJ?

    There’s no set rule, but most choose coverage equal to or greater than their net worth. Homes, savings, rental properties, or teen drivers can increase your need.

  • Is an umbrella policy worth it for a homeowner?

    Yes—especially if you have significant assets or host guests often. One severe accident could exceed standard liability limits by hundreds of thousands of dollars.

  • Can I get umbrella coverage with only auto insurance?

    Most insurers require both home and auto policies first, with minimum liability limits. We help you meet these requirements easily.

  • Does umbrella insurance cover business liability?

    A personal umbrella won’t cover business activities, but a commercial umbrella might—ideal for landlords or small business owners. You can explore commercial options under our small business insurance.
