🚗💥🚙 What happens when the person who hits YOU doesn't have enough insurance?

That's where Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage can come into the conversation.

If you're involved in a covered accident caused by a driver who has no insurance — or not enough liability insurance to cover your damages — your own UM/UIM coverage may help protect you, depending on the coverage you've selected and the circumstances of the claim.

Think about it this way:

You can do everything right. ✅
Carry good insurance. ✅
Drive responsibly. ✅

But you can't control the insurance carried by the person driving toward you.

That's why we don't like looking at auto insurance as simply finding the cheapest price. We want our customers to understand what they're actually buying and what protection they have when something goes wrong.

Not sure whether you have UM/UIM coverage or what your limits are?

Give us a call. We'll help you understand it.

⏱️ MONDAY MINUTE... ON A TUESDAY! 😂

We're a day late, but today's tip is a good one!

☂️ WHAT EXACTLY IS AN UMBRELLA POLICY?

Think of an umbrella policy as an extra layer of liability protection that sits above certain underlying policies, such as your auto and homeowners insurance.

Imagine you're responsible for a serious accident and the damages exceed the liability limit on your auto policy.

🚗 Your auto liability coverage responds up to its applicable limit.
☂️ Then your umbrella may provide additional liability protection, subject to the policy's terms and limits.

And umbrella coverage isn't just about car accidents. Depending on the policy, it can provide additional liability protection for covered incidents involving your home, rental properties, boats and more.

Why does it matter?

Because serious liability claims can get expensive FAST — and protecting what you've worked hard to build is important.

Umbrella policies can provide $1 million or more in additional liability coverage, depending on the policy and carrier.

Not sure if an umbrella makes sense for you? Ask us. That's what we're here for.

💡 FUN FACT FRIDAY!

🏠 Your homeowners insurance doesn't necessarily stop protecting your belongings when they leave your house.

Surprised? 👀

Many homeowners and renters policies include off-premises personal property coverage, meaning certain belongings may still have coverage while they're away from home.

Think:

💻 A laptop stolen while traveling
🧳 Belongings taken from a hotel room
🎒 Personal property stolen while you're away from home

But here's the important part: coverage limits, deductibles and exclusions can apply, and some types of property have special limits.

So don't assume something is covered—or isn't covered—without checking your policy.

That's what we're here for. 👍
