Brian & Cindy Bartholomew

My wife Cindy and I met with Darby, and found her to be extremely prepared, patient and friendly. More importantly, she was able to find us Flood, Home, Auto and Umbrella policies that were not only a better price than we have been paying, but more importantly, better coverage! And now we have an actual agent we can talk to and trust if issues arise. Highly recommended!!!”

Frequently asked questions

  • How can I get a quote or meet with someone to review my current insurance policies?

    Call the office or request a quote online. We know you are busy so we do our best to make it easy for you!

  • What are the advantages to using an agent to purchase insurance?

    By using an agent to purchase insurance, the policyholder receives more personal service. An agent with whom there is direct contact can be vital when purchasing a product and absolutely necessary when filing a claim. A local, independent agent is able to deliver quality insurance with competitive pricing and local personalized service.

  • Do I need to wait until my current policy term is up to switch to your office?

    No, if it is in your best interest to switch to one of our Top “A” rated companies we will take care of everything for you so you don’t have to wait any longer to start saving money.

  • What factors should I consider when purchasing homeowners insurance?

    There are a number of factors you should consider when purchasing any product or service, and insurance is no different. Here is a checklist of things you should consider when you purchase homeowners insurance:

    – Determine the amount and type of insurance that you need. The coverage limit of your house should equal 100% of its replacement cost. If your policy limit is less than 80% of the replacement cost of your home, any payment from your insurance company will be less than the full cost to replace your home – you’ll have to pay the rest out of your own pocket. Also, decide if the personal property and personal liability limits are adequate for your needs.

    – Determine which, if any, additional endorsements you want to add to your policy. For example, do you want the personal property replacement cost endorsement, an earthquake endorsement or a jewelry endorsement?

    – Once you have decided on the coverage you want in your homeowners insurance policy, consult us. We will be able to help you determine if there are any gaps in coverage you might not have been aware of, explain the details of the policy’s exclusions and limitations as well as recommend an insurance company that will live up to your expectations.

  • What factors can affect the cost of my automobile insurance?

    A number of factors can affect the cost of your automobile insurance – some of which you can control and some that are beyond your control. The type of car you drive, the purpose the car serves, your driving record, and where the car is garaged can all affect how much your automobile insurance will cost you. Even your marital status can affect your cost of insurance. Statistics show that married people tend to have fewer and less costly accidents than do single people.

  • Why do some apartment complexes require tenants to have renters insurance?

    Owners of apartment complexes buy insurance policies for their liability and to cover their buildings and personal property. However, these policies do not cover any of the tenant’s property or liability. By requiring their tenants to have renters insurance, the apartment owner is assured that the tenants will not mistakenly believe the apartment complex owner’s policy will provide coverage for a tenant’s property or personal liability. Although this type of requirement benefits that apartment complex owner, there are benefits to the renter as well. We recommend that you purchase renters insurance regardless of what your landlord requires.

  • How do I know if I need a personal umbrella liability policy?

    It used to be that the only people who needed personal umbrella liability policies were wealthy individuals who had sizable amounts of personal assets that would be at risk in a lawsuit. However, in our very litigious society, even individuals with modest incomes and assets are often subjects of large lawsuits. Since they are even less able than a wealthy individual to pay large damage awards, they recognize the need to have coverage limits greater than what can be obtained from their homeowner or auto policies.
