If you are a private horse owner (not a professional) and own assets of any kind, then these policies are taylormade just for you! If your horse is involved in any kind of injury or property loss, these policies protect you and your assets. This coverage follows your horse whether at his home barn, showing, trail riding, at a trainer's or escapes from his paddock or stall. One of the most important and valuable elements to these policies is that they also provide your legal defense. A claim that is brought against you/your horse might be totally bogus, but you still have to appear in court with a lawyer to defend yourself and your defense can be a very expensive proposition, even if you are completely innocent of the charges.
Most homeowner’s insurance policies exclude equine-related incidents or losses, leaving horse owners dangerously exposed. That’s where Equine Personal Liability Insurance comes in.
At Equine Insurance Professionals LLC, we can write standalone policies, or in some cases, supplemental liability added to an existing policy, designed exclusively to protect the private horse owner. Whether you ride for fun, show competitively, or lease your horse, this is incredibly affordable and easy to obtain, peace of mind.
If your horse kicks someone, escapes from a pasture and causes a car accident, or damages someone’s property, personal liability insurance helps cover the costs of medical bills, repairs, and legal defense.
Whether your horse is kept at a boarding barn or leased to another rider, you’re still legally responsible for its actions.
Accidents happen outside the arena. This policy protects you during recreational riding, trail events, schooling shows, and more.
