Instead, it protects you from yourself. When you&rsquo;re held responsible, or liable, for a covered incident, your liability insurance will protect you. The specific scenarios liability coverage may provide protection or will depend on your renters insurance policy&rsquo;s terms and conditions. Here are three examples that might qualify as a covered incident, depending on your policy:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif\">a fire that you start and spreads throughout your apartment building<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif\">legal fees associated with an incident that took place in your apartment<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif\"><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif\">damage you cause to someone&#8217;s property when you&rsquo;re outside of your apartment<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif\"><strong>Our Insurance Agents Compare Liability Coverage Rates<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif\">At Runnels Insurance, we have independent insurance agents who can compare any renters insurance policy offered in Florida against others ones that are available.
