Personal / Advertising Injury coverage

Risk Factors

When a reputation has been damaged, umbrella insurance can help decrease the legal blow.

Solution

It can cover personal injuries like Libel & Slander, Malicious prosecution, wrongful eviction, and advertising injuries like copyright infringement or misappropriation of advertising ideas.

Contractual Liability coverage

Risk Factors

The companies frequently assume a landlord’s tort liability when renting office space.

Solution

This aspect only regards “insured contracts,” such as leases and easements. Commercial umbrella insurance can help you cover legal expenses arising when you accept the tort liability of another responsible party.

Lawsuits coverage

Risk Factors

Legal and defense fees can skyrocket in a heartbeat, and you may need to pay them from your pockets.

Solution

Umbrella insurance can help cover these particular expenses when you are in the middle of a lawsuit.

Vulnerability of All Businesses

Regardless of the size or efficiency of your company, every business is at risk of a devastating claim resulting from an unforeseen incident. For instance, imagine you own a retail store or apartment building in Illinois, and a customer trips over the carpet, suffering a severe head injury. 

This could potentially result in liability claims amounting to millions of dollars in medical and other expenses. Would your existing business liability insurance cover the entire amount? Could your business savings or revenue cover any shortfall?

If not, Commercial Umbrella Coverage is essential. This coverage extends beyond the limits of your standard business liability insurance, providing up to $10 million in additional funds to handle such situations.

Protect Your Future Earnings

Small business owners often assume they are safe if they don't have substantial assets. However, a court can seize your current business assets and even assign future earnings to fulfill a judgment against you. Investing in umbrella coverage is a prudent decision, regardless of the size of your business.

Maximize Asset Protection

Choosing how to allocate your hard-earned money is crucial. However, an unexpected major loss can take this choice away from you. Commercial Umbrella Coverage offers a cost-effective way to protect your business assets.

Do you know if your coverage adequately protects against major catastrophic events? At Hecht-Stout Insurance Agency, we can help you assess and enhance your coverage.
