Why Choose an Independent Agent?
Independent agents are not tied to any one insurance company. One of the advantages of using an independent agent is that he or she works to satisfy your needs. You are using a licensed insurance practitioner for an important financial decision.
An independent agent has several companies that he or she can approach to get the best coverage for you. Your independent agent will know the companies with the most efficient claims department to recover your losses as quickly as possible.
When you buy insurance, whether it's for your home, car or business, you want an advocate who will properly assess the risks you face and give an objective analysis of the marketplace and your specific needs. Insurance is an important financial investment. Don't treat it lightly!
This is not a solicitation of insurance coverage in any state or jurisdiction where the agency is not licensed.
