How Much is Enough?

​

That's more art than science, given frivolous matters can quickly turn into more time consuming and costly disputes than originally anticipated.  The value of such suites is always subject to the financial loss of the person or people that have been injured, which makes it impossible to predict.  The amount of coverage purchased should also consider your lifestyle, public or on-line visability, age of dependent children and the value of your personal assets.  

​

As a result, we recommend all clients obtain quotes in intervals of $1M up to $10M in order to weigh coverage vs cost and determine the amount that represents the best value proposition.  Limits above $10M are available by request.

Emerging Risk: Libel/Slander & Social Media

​

Most of the personal liability products we offer automatically cover claims of libel/slander, including your family's use of social media.  Be sure to check if this valuable feature has been included when shopping for a home, coop, condo or renters insurance policy
