House hack landlord protection

Hi bigger pockets community,

I'm about close on my first home purchase and am doing the house hack method, renting out all rooms except my own. 

I'm worried about the liabilities that could come with this before I establish my LLC in the future. I know that landlord insurance is typically recommended with any rental property, but I'm not sure if its necessary for a live in rental like a house hack or if typical home insurance usually covers

Should I get landlord insurance to protect myself or is a home insurance policy enough to protect myself from potential suites and such? Any guidance would be much appreciated. Thanks!
