What is excess liability coverage,
and do I need it?
By Laura Kearney
The peace of mind liability insurance
protection provides, combined with
the reasonable cost associated with
higher limits, makes excess liability
coverage the best value in personal
insurance today. It is a vitally impor-
tant layer of protection and a critical
part of every client review meeting
we conduct.
Liability coverage provides protec-
tion against a third party. The cover-
age is a central part of most personal
insurance policies and, most notably, a
staple in auto and home insurance poli-
cies. Excess liability policies, some-
times called umbrella policies, provide
limits “in excess” of the limits offered
on underlying policies. The liability
coverage within a home, auto or water-
craft policy is considered the “pri-
mary” liability insurance, meaning it
responds first in the event of a claim.
Excess liability insurance responds
after primary limits are exhausted.
How much excess liability
coverage do I need?
Only you can determine the appropri-
ate amount—however, you do not have
to be a billionaire to be sued like one.
One measure is to carry limits that are
at least equal to your net worth. Most
high net worth insurance companies,
such as AIG’s Private Client Group,
provide excess liability limits up to
$100 million. Coverage is available in
increments of $1 million to $5 million,
and then commonly offered at levels
of $10 million, $25 million, $50 million
and $100 million. Often, consumers
can get $10 million excess liability cov-
erage for under $2,500 per year.
Perhaps the greatest benefit associ-
ated with excess liability insurance is
the defense cost coverage. Most poli-
cies pay defense costs outside of your
policy limits—an enormous benefit,
given how some lawsuits drag on for
months or years, accruing large legal
bills. Additionally, policies typically
include the wording “We will defend
an insured person against any suit
seeking damages covered by excess
liability under this policy. . . even if the
allegations of the suit are groundless,
false, or fraudulent, we provide this de-
fense at our expense.”
Where and what am I
covered for?
Most excess liability policies provide
worldwide protection for personal in-
jury (including libel and slander) and
property damage, as well as owned
and non-owned vehicles, homes and
watercraft. Companies like AIG in-
clude a “drop-down” feature to elimi-
nate potential gaps when covered
incidents are excluded from your pri-
mary liability policy.
Excess uninsured motorist coverage
is also available by endorsement for
accidents involving underinsured or
uninsured drivers. Given that an esti-
mated one in six drivers are uninsured,
why not provide yourself the same
protection you are affording others?
1. Many owners of large estates use
golf carts to navigate their properties.
A 16-year-old was driving one (insured
under her parents’ policy for underlying
liability) with a friend to the nearby
country club. While traveling at a fairly
fast speed, the teen made a sudden left
turn and her passenger was ejected
from the cart, sustaining a serious head
injury. The accident resulted in a seven-
figure settlement.
2. A couple hosted a charity auction at
their estate. When workers arrived to
deliver the items up for bid, they were
instructed to move a large item around
the side of the house and through the
pool area. The wet tile caused one
worker to fall, fracture his wrist and fall
into the pool, where he almost drowned.
He later developed a chronic/progressive
neurological disorder. Although the
homeowners were not on the property
at the time, they were sued and found
vicariously liable for their staff member’s
actions and the subsequent injuries.
