Houston, TX area residents who already have homeowners insurance plans may wonder whether or not they need liability insurance. For many people, liability insurance seems like a needless coverage option. However, it may be quite necessary for you and your family to prevent financial disaster. Let’s look at what liability insurance is and how it can help you.

What Is Liability Insurance?

Liability insurance refers to insurance coverage that protects your finances if you are sued by someone who is seriously injured on your property or someone who has their property damaged by you or something you inadvertently caused.

For example, if someone visiting your home was to slip and fall on your sidewalk because there was ice there, they may be able to sue you for negligence if they were seriously injured as a result. This lawsuit would claim that you should have cleaned up the ice on your sidewalk so that a slip and subsequent injury did not occur. If the plaintiff in this case (the person who slipped) wins the case, you could lose thousands of dollars that you would have to pay them in compensation for their injuries, pain, and suffering.
