Umbrella Insurance in Louisiana
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 Louisiana
Louisiana carries one of the lowest bodily injury minimums in the country alongside some of the highest property premiums. After the 2020–2021 storm seasons several carriers became insolvent and Louisiana Citizens grew substantially; named-storm deductibles, roof age restrictions, and separate flood placement are all standard parts of a Louisiana property conversation.
