In most home insurance, the part of legal responsibility coverage is to protect home owners from lawsuits that may arise from accidents that occur in their home or on their property. There is a very good probability that as a home owner, you do not have enough legal responsibility protection which could interpret to you losing all that you own to the person who decides to file a suit.
The problem is how to decide how much liability to buy. Because it is impulsive who is going to file a suit and for how much, there is no real exact figure to go for. The rule of thumb recurrently applied is to purchase liability coverage that is twice your net worth because any jury can suddenly award gigantic amounts that have no relation to what you own or your earning power.
