How home, auto, and umbrella insurance fit together
Your home and auto policies each have a liability limit, the most the policy pays if you're found responsible for someone else's injury or property damage. A personal umbrella policy sits above those limits and picks up where they stop.

What your umbrella adds
Liability protection above your home, auto, or renters limits, typically $1 million or more, according to New York's Department of Financial Services. It usually also covers offenses such as libel, slander, false arrest, and invasion of privacy.
Why they get set up together
Insurers may require certain minimum liability limits on your primary policies before they'll write an umbrella. Change one limit and it can affect the others, so we look at all three as one picture.
Your policy goes to John and Allen. They read it, and one of them comes back to you.
