Umbrella Policies -- Important Benefits to the Plaintiff
A ruling from the bench in Henrico County, Virginia, allowed a man who was injured in an automobile crash to collect underinsured motorist coverage from his umbrella liability policy. The Defendant’s liability insurance coverage was inadequate to compensate the Plaintiff for his injuries. The Plaintiff had an automobile liability insurance policy and an umbrella liability policy. Typically, umbrella liability policies do not provide coverage to the insured. In this case, it was the specific wording of the umbrella policy that allowed the Plaintiff to tap into the coverage.
