Understanding Personal Liability Insurance?
Personal liability insurance is important standard homeowners and auto insurance policies do not cover claims against individuals that result from catastrophic situations or in legal decisions. Without this kind of insurance, every individual can encounter serious financial harm if they are ever found to be responsible for extreme injury or property loss. Most insurance agents have the ability to write policies for personal liability, so does he are interested in this type of coverage should ask the agent next as they review their policy. Before purchasing separate personal liability, the insured person should first make sure they have as much personal liability coverage through their automobile and homeowners insurance policies.
What is covered for personal liability insurance?
Personal liability insurance provides additional coverage to other insurance policies. Without personal liability insurance, any thing that one's home or car insurance could not cover, one would have to pay out of pocket. Personal liability insurance will cover those fines.
What is personal umbrella liability insurance?
So does that mean you cannot get an umbrella liability policy without having some primary coverage first? I am a landlord. Let's say I am not concerned about property damage or fire loss, just liability. Is there any type of insurance I can buy just for liability? _____________________________________________________________________________________________ In answer to your question, by its very nature, there has to be underlying coverage in order to have an unbrella policy. Otherwise, there is nothing for the umbrella to supplement. Different insurance companies have different underwriting requirements as to the amount of underlying coverage you much have to get an umbrella of a stated amount. Since you are a landlord, and presumably want coverage on the rental property, you may want to look into a Commercial General Liability insurance policy. It is a broad form of policy that covers an array of risks. Only a licensed insurance agent can advise you on what is best for your needs. However, since it is rental property, I do not understand why you would not want insurance on the property itself, such as fire insurance, unless the property is uninsurable. --Luke Brown
Can a 16 year old drive without insurance if they have a permit?
NEVER. Not only is the teen required to have insurance, but if he or she were to cause an accident then you (the parent) are responsible for the financial implications of an accident - bodily injury and/or property damage of the other party (and, no, your personal liability or umbrella policy will not pay those expenses for you).
Is it mandatory to have homeowners insurance after you pay off your house?
No. Unlike auto insurance, homeowners insurance is optional and is not mandatory if your house is paid for. Just keep in mind though, if your home is lost due to fire, tornado, etc., you will not collect any kind of recovery for the loss. Also, without a homeowners insurance policy with liability coverage, you won't be covered for liability damages should someone fall or be injured in some way while at your home.

How do you find your neighbors homeowners insurance for liability?

You should first determine if your neighbor even has Liability insurance. Not all homeowners purchase liability coverage with their insurance policy. A home insurance policy can be bought with or without liability coverage. If the homeowner has elected liability coverage, The homeowners insurance policy will provide the homeowner with legal defense for the cost of defending against a suit that is brought against them claiming liability on the part of the insured. If the Insured is found at fault or liable in court, then their insurance company will cover the cost of those liabilities up to the specified policy limits. Alternatively you can sue your neighbor. Then If your neighbor has Liability coverage on his home insurance policy, You will then meet your neighbors insurance company attorneys in court.
How do you get liability on vacant land without homeowners insurance?
You could get a commercial type policy -- the last one I sold in Texas was about $1200/year for $300,000 liability. They charge per acre. Insuracne is regulated by state governments. All insurance questions should be required to state what state you are in. Don't just love the English language? Why don't you have homewners insurance??? You have to live somewhere. You can buy a renters policy that has personal liability as part of the package and ask the agent if it will extend to vacant land.

Does a subdivision without common areas need liability insurance and why?
I don't see any need for liability insurance in the case you described. In cases where you have a homeowners association or a condo owners association and they own common property such as a swimming pool, parks, roofs, sidewalks, etc. then they would have a need for both property and liability insurnance to cover these areas. This is what you dues are in place to pay for as well as maintenance.
