Liability – WHAT?


Liability. What the heck is this all about? Well, it’s the MOST important part of your auto insurance policy! Surprised? Most people are. Let me help you understand it.
Most clients only know auto insurance as either “Liability Only” or “Full Coverage”. We will address Full Coverage later, but for now, let’s focus on “Liability Only”.
Liability Only is the cheapest way to get insurance. Period. Why? Well, it doesn’t protect your automobile at all, only others.
In the event of an at-fault accident, it provides coverages for other people & other peoples stuff. Let me give you an example…..
Let’s assume you are driving on State Minimum auto insurance for Liability & property damage. That only covers $25,000 currently. Let’s assume you injure another person & their medical expenses are $40,000. That leaves you on the hook for $15,000. Your insurance will only pay the policy limits. Pull out the checkbook, because it’s time to pay! This also applies to property damage as well!
