How Commercial Umbrella Insurance Can Help Cover Large Lawsuits

One of the most significant threats Arizona business owners face is the possibility of a large lawsuit that exceeds the limits of standard liability policies. Safeguard your business from unexpected financial setbacks with commercial umbrella insurance from MCarrillo Insurance Agency.

Commercial Umbrella Insurance Overview

When a claim or lawsuit causes a general liability, auto liability or employers’ liability policy to reach its limit, commercial umbrella insurance may help pay remaining costs up to its own coverage limit. This type of policy is designed to address large claims that exceed the limits of standard liability coverage. High legal expenses or settlements can place significant financial strain on a company, which is why many businesses consider adding this policy.

Why Arizona Businesses Need Commercial Umbrella Insurance

Businesses in Arizona can face legal claims arising from daily operations, customer interactions or employee activities. Some common situations that may lead to liability claims include:

• Customer injuries that occur on business property
• Accidents involving vehicles being used for company purposes
• Allegations of libel, slander or other personal injury claims
• Workplace incidents that cause severe or multiple employee injuries

Standard liability policies often have specific coverage limits. If legal fees, settlements or court judgments exceed those limits, your business may be responsible for the remaining costs. Large claims can put your company’s finances at risk.
