Umbrella insurance, often called personal liability insurance, gives you extra protection on top of your home and auto policies. These policies kick in when your home or auto limits aren’t enough.

How personal liability insurance works. Personal liability insurance is easier to explain with an example.
Let’s say you have an auto and umbrella insurance policy with Cano Molina Insurance. You have limits of
- Auto Liability: $250,000 per person and a total of $500,000 per accident
- Umbrella: $1 million
So instead of only having a liability limit of $250,000 per person, with an umbrella policy you’d have $1.25 million. Broken down, that’s
- $250,000 auto liability
- + $1 million umbrella
- = $1.25 million of liability coverage
