What Does Personal Excess Liability Insurance Mean?
Personal excess liability insurance offers additional coverage beyond the limits of an existing liability insurance policy. It covers amounts that exceed the coverage provided by the primary liability policy.
Insuranceopedia Explains Personal Excess Liability Insurance
Personal excess liability insurance is often compared to umbrella insurance. While both offer coverage beyond the limits of a liability policy, personal excess liability insurance does not provide the broader protection that umbrella insurance does.
For example, if you injure another party in a car accident and the total damage amounts to $12,000, and your liability coverage has a limit of $10,000, your excess liability insurance would cover the remaining $2,000.
