Would either an umbrella policy or a personal excess policy provide that kind of protection? or is the personal excess policy insufficient for my needs? The key thing I'm looking for is reasonable protection -- I can't protect against every scenario but I do want to take reasonable precautions.

I believe you would be best served by an umbrella policy, even if you have to go to another insurer to get it. You want a minimum of $1MM umbrella, 2 or 3MM would be better. These policies are cheap protection against unlikely, but potentially devastating happenings.
