I'm doing some research on your suggestion. I get the impression that umbrella insurance protects YOU if someone is injured by YOU, or they are injured on YOUR property. Can you show me a link to information that would help me understand how umbrella insurance would cover excess injuries to me if injured by an un/underinsured person?

I am working with my agent now to see, if I have "stacked" insurance on the auto, if I need the uninsured portion on the motorcycles. I'll report back when I get the answer.
