Commercial Umbrella Insurance in Florida

Higher liability limits when a serious claim exceeds the ordinary.

Commercial umbrella and excess liability coverage can add another layer of protection above eligible underlying policies—helping businesses prepare for severe claims and demanding contract requirements.

What commercial umbrella insurance is designed to do

When a covered liability claim reaches the limit of an eligible underlying policy, commercial umbrella or excess liability may provide additional limits, subject to the policy’s terms, conditions, exclusions, and schedule of underlying insurance.

GL

General liability

May extend eligible limits for serious bodily injury, property damage, and certain other covered liability claims.

AU

Commercial auto

May provide additional liability limits above an eligible business auto policy after underlying limits are exhausted.

EL

Employers liability

May extend the employers liability portion of an eligible workers’ compensation policy when scheduled as underlying coverage.

Businesses that may benefit from higher limits

Umbrella coverage is especially worth reviewing when your operations create larger liability exposures or when customers, landlords, municipalities, or general contractors require limits above your primary policies.

Important: Commercial umbrella is not a substitute for professional liability, cyber, employment practices, pollution, or other specialty coverage. Some exposures require their own policies.
  • Contractors working on commercial projects
  • Businesses operating fleets or heavy vehicles
  • Property owners and real estate operations
  • Manufacturers, distributors, and wholesalers
  • Hospitality, retail, and customer-facing businesses
  • Companies with high-value contracts or assets
