# Amelia Risk Umbrella and Excess Liability Insurance

Umbrella / Excess Liability

Amelia Risk arranges umbrella and excess liability as part of its general liability practice; its policies hub groups the two under one 'General Liability & Umbrella' catalogue card rather than listing umbrella as a standalone product. [2](https://ameliarisk.com/insurance-policies/ "Insurance Policies") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Policies hub as read on 2026-09-23. Describes how the firm catalogues the line, not a specific insurer or program.)

## Who It’s For

- Amelia Risk lists Umbrella Liability among the policies it says startup clients should consider, alongside other liability lines in its startup catalogue. [3](https://ameliarisk.com/specialties/startups/ "Insurance For Startups") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Startups specialty page as read on 2026-09-23. Describes a marketed audience, not an underwriting eligibility rule or a stated minimum for underlying limits.)

## Coverage Features

- Amelia Risk describes an umbrella policy as one that increases the limits of a client's underlying scheduled liability policies, and notes that in some cases the product placed is technically an excess policy rather than an umbrella policy. [1](https://ameliarisk.com/insurance-policies/general-liability/ "General Liability") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: General Liability page's umbrella subsection. A plain-language description of how the firm frames the product, not a specimen form or list of which underlying policies must be scheduled.)

## Limits and Retentions

- **Not publicly disclosed.** The reviewed pages do not publish umbrella or excess limit amounts, attachment points or required underlying limits; Amelia Risk's description stays at the level of the product's general purpose. [1](https://ameliarisk.com/insurance-policies/general-liability/ "General Liability") [2](https://ameliarisk.com/insurance-policies/ "Insurance Policies") (Scope: General Liability page and policies hub as read on 2026-09-23. A checked gap, not a statement that no limit options exist.)

## How to Apply

- Amelia Risk applies its general four-step brokerage process to an umbrella or excess request: it gathers information about the company, approaches insurers on the client's behalf, reviews the resulting quotes together, and lets the client decide how to proceed. [4](https://ameliarisk.com/specialties/ "Our Specialties") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Specialties page process description, which applies across the firm's lines rather than describing an umbrella-specific intake form.)
