The Personal Umbrella Liability Sizing anchor calculator is on the post-launch backlog (Byron-confirmed scope expansion: 2–5 additional calcs after Days 1–5). When that tool ships, this methodology page will cover personal umbrella tiering against net worth, the underlying-liability limits umbrella carriers require, professional liability (E&O), and the ISO Commercial General Liability (CGL) form structure for sole-prop / LLC operators.

Sources we'll cite

  • ISO Personal Umbrella Liability Policy form
  • ISO Commercial General Liability (CGL) form CG 00 01
  • NAIC Consumer Insurance Search — state DOI bulletins on umbrella underwriting
  • III research on personal umbrella adoption and claim frequency
  • Insurance Research Council — bodily-injury severity trend data
