OUR MISSION IS TO EDUCATE CONSUMERS TO MAKE MORE EDUCATED DECISIONS ABOUT INSURANCE.
More often than not an insurance purchase is poorly understood, rushed, and mismanaged. We believe it is an important decision and should be well understood. Unlike other consumer goods, unfortunately there is no "trial period" to "kick the tires" with an insurance purchase. We will spend as much time as necessary to demystify insurance to ensure you understand the range of products on the market, how they differ, and whether they may or may not suit your needs.
We will also review any of your current coverages and make recommendations outside of our firm when we cannot help.
If it is related to insurance, we are here to help you in anyway we can with the utmost honesty and integrity -- even if we do not make money in the process.
We are in your corner. That is sincere our promise to you.
- SETH PATEL, CEO

OUR APPROACH
OUR DUTY TO YOU
As licensed insurance brokers, our fiduciary duty is to YOU, not the insurance company. As opposed to other insurance agents, who represent specific insurance carriers, we are in your corner all the way. Furthermore, insurers make quotes and policy forms hard to understand and we help bring clarity to what is otherwise an opaque process. We will spend as much time as necessary to help you understand the product in as much detail as possible to help empower you to make an an educated purchase.
OUR PROCESS
We do the hard leg work of shopping the market for the best products for your behalf and leveraging our relationships with underwriters to ensure you are getting the best price. We are also successful in finding hard to place coverage for our clients. Most importantly, we will be honest with you and tell you if we cannot add value. Many of the better insurers carriers we work with are not well known to the consumer and include: AIG, Chubb, National General, Travelers, Lloyds of London, and many many more. Well also work with all the major Medicare and Health Insurers including United, Blue Cross, Humana, Wellcare, Bright Health, Emblem, Aetna, etc.
Most importantly our services do not cost you anything, and it is in your interest to use us versus trying to buy insurance on your own.
