Is Commercial Umbrella Insurance Required by Law?

Commercial Umbrella Insurance typically extends coverage for:
- Excess Liability: It increases the liability coverage limits beyond what your primary policies offer for lawsuits involving injuries, property damage, and certain types of legal disputes.

What Does Commercial Umbrella Insurance Not Cover?
Commercial Umbrella Insurance provides broad coverage but does not extend to:
- Intentional or Criminal Acts: Damages or liabilities resulting from intentional misconduct or illegal activities are not covered.
- Employment Practices: Issues such as wrongful termination, harassment, or other employment-related claims often require specific Employment Practices Liability Insurance.

Knowing these exclusions ensures that you seek the appropriate coverage for all aspects of your business risk.
