Business Insurance Services Include:

1) We don’t sell insurance – we solve problems. If we find that the client is properly insured, we will tell him that.

2) We are a modern, large insurance firm BUT we have made our success by treating our clients in an “old fashioned” way – as friends. We like to know and understand our clients’ entire insurance portfolio and needs

3) We perform our TOTAL INSURANCE ANALYSIS at no cost to the client, identifying every insurance policy he has or needs and identifying any gaps, under-insurance, and over-insurance that may occur. We are a full service agency with specialists in every form of insurance available. We do not insist on the client taking insurance coverage – however our job is to inform the client of his potential financial exposure.

4) We use at least three insurance providers and we review every client account each year to determine where their insurance is best placed to provide maximum coverage at a reasonable cost. Those people who have used single company agents or agents with only one or two markets have found that they have no option but to sell the only program that they have available – they have no way to compare and shop to get the best price or coverage.
5) We contact our clients, on occasion, during the year to verify that no changes have taken place that could increase their financial risk or that might offer lower cost options to current insurance programs. Many insurance agents actually do the process of renewal analysis 90 or 120 days prior to a client’s expiration. Few actually let the client know what they have done. Too many customers feel that the insurance agent does nothing to remarket and price their coverage once the original sale is made.

6) If claims occur, we respond to the claim on the same day that it is reported to us and we track the claim process to assure that it is handled in a timely fashion. Most agents quickly report claims. However, a surprising number of agents do no follow up on claims until and unless the client complains that the claim process has gone awry. We know the timely and efficient response to claims is the single primary reason that people buy insurance.
