Umbrella Insurance in Florida
Liability coverage that sits above your auto and home limits. Usually the cheapest million dollars of protection a household can buy.
What is different in Florida
Florida is the most distinctive property market in the country. Hurricane deductibles are percentage-based and separate from the all-other-perils deductible, roof age drives eligibility more than any other single factor, and Citizens operates as a large residual market rather than a marginal one. On the auto side Florida is a no-fault state that does not require bodily injury liability from most drivers, which makes uninsured motorist coverage the single most consequential option on the quote.
