In this challenging environment, we remain dedicated to delivering the service and expertise that support our promise to protect you like family.

When It’s Time to Change Insurance Brokers
Selecting the right commercial broker is crucial, but how do you know when it’s time to make a change? Here are some signs that it might be time to find a new broker:
- ✔ Slow or No Response to Requests: If you must repeatedly email your broker for answers to simple questions or to obtain certificates of insurance, it might be time to look elsewhere. Fast, professional service is essential. Who has time to chase down endorsements or certificates? Nobody.
- ✔ Unclear Renewal Process: Renewal is a critical time when your risk is reassessed and sent to the market. Coverage and premiums can change during this period. A good broker keeps you informed about the renewal process and any coverage changes.
- ✔ Too Few Quote Options: A good broker provides multiple quote and coverage options. Even if quotes seem similar, small details can make a big difference. If your broker can't offer options on limits and deductibles, it might be time to look elsewhere.
- ✔ Lack of Insurance Expertise: The insurance world is complex, and your broker should be your expert guide. They should be able to explain your policies (coverage, terms, conditions, and exclusions), how they protect you from risks, and how to manage them.
- ✔ No Claim Assistance: A service-oriented broker will help you navigate the claim process and advocate on your behalf to ensure a fair settlement. If a claim arises and you are left to fend for yourself, it’s time to find a better broker.
