What Is Personal Lines Insurance?

Personal lines insurance refers to any kind of insurance that covers individuals against loss that results from death, injury, or loss of property.

Personal lines insurance makes it possible to do things such as driving a car and owning a home without risking financial ruin. This is not the same as commercial lines insurance which provides property and casualty coverage for businesses.
