Auto and homeowners policies provide adequate liability for many
people, but umbrella insurance coverage provides an extra layer of
liability coverage. Not all umbrella policies are the same - they differ in
coverage, definitions, scope and features. Although Insurance
Services Office (ISO) and American Association of Insurance
Services (AAIS) have developed umbrella policies, most insurers
file and use their own forms. Therefore, it is important to have a
basic knowledge of umbrella features and benefits so that insurance
professionals can best advise and protect their clients. This CD
ROM will help you understand this important tool in the personal
lines arsenal | May 2012
