[Human-readable page](https://spot.insure/insurance-providers/newfront/umbrella-excess) # Newfront Umbrella and Excess Liability Insurance Newfront Umbrella/Excess Liability Newfront places umbrella and excess liability coverage through its Casualty practice rather than underwriting it; the practice negotiates placement structure and terms with carriers on the client's behalf. [1](https://www.newfront.com/casualty-insurance "Casualty") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Casualty page Our Approach and Key Coverages sections.) ## Issuing Insurer - **Not publicly disclosed.** The reviewed Casualty page does not name an insurer for umbrella or excess placements; it describes 'strong carrier relationships' generally without naming a carrier. [1](https://www.newfront.com/casualty-insurance "Casualty") (Scope: Casualty page as read on 2026-09-23; carrier depends on the specific placement.) ## Who It’s For - Newfront says its Casualty team protects companies of every size and scope, and lists industry verticals it serves, including construction, manufacturing, technology, and life science, without a stated minimum size or premium threshold for umbrella/excess placements specifically. [1](https://www.newfront.com/casualty-insurance "Casualty") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Casualty page intro and Areas of Expertise list.) ## Coverage Features - Umbrella/Excess Liability is listed as one of the Key Coverages within Newfront's Casualty practice, alongside general liability, product liability, auto liability, and workers' compensation, but the page does not describe specific attachment points or underlying-policy requirements. [1](https://www.newfront.com/casualty-insurance "Casualty") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Casualty page Key Coverages list; no policy form reviewed.) ## Limits and Retentions - **Not publicly disclosed.** Newfront's Casualty page does not publish umbrella or excess limit options; it describes program structuring (guaranteed cost, large deductible, self-insurance, captive) as a service rather than stating specific limit tiers. [1](https://www.newfront.com/casualty-insurance "Casualty") (Scope: Placement Expertise section; no limits schedule available.) ## Risk Services - Newfront says its Casualty team provides predictive analytics and benchmarking, claims advocacy, and integrated risk control to reduce claim frequency and total cost of risk, which the page frames as relevant across the casualty coverages it places, including umbrella/excess. [1](https://www.newfront.com/casualty-insurance "Casualty") (Evidence: Company-reported; scope: Our Approach and The Newfront Difference sections.) ## How to Apply - You engage Newfront for umbrella/excess placement by requesting a consultation through the Casualty page, led by Frannie Epps, Head of the Casualty Practice; the page does not describe an online quote or bind flow.
