Umbrella coverage provides that extra protection a business needs for big, unexpected events that can quickly exceed its primary insurance limits — from devastating multi-million-dollar lawsuits to liability claims, employee auto accidents, on-premises slip and falls, and more.
Let’s face it – business owners don’t need another thing to worry about. But here’s a big one: nearly 80% of businesses are not covered against potentially business-ending lawsuits and catastrophic losses. That’s because they fail to add commercial excess and umbrella insurance to their coverage package. The reality is that when it comes to protecting businesses, umbrella coverage is a necessity, not an option.

“My husband and I just purchased our first home and used Kevin Hamill’s services for our insurance. We originally tried to find the best rate on our own, but quickly got frustrated. Kevin was recommended by our buyers’ agent, and after the first conversation we never looked back! Kevin was able to shop around for the best bundle prices for our auto, jewelry, homeowners and life insurance. He beat even the local agents by $200-$300 and assisted us with cancelling our existing policies to get refunds. Kevin is different from the rest because he takes the time to really get to know what you are looking for and doesn’t oversell you. He is a great communicator and always responded in a timely manner. He is extremely knowledgeable about insurance and helped explain everything to us in detail. We would highly recommend Kevin for his insurance services to everyone!”
