Liability Limits
Pays for injuries and property damage you cause. I check whether your limits would truly hold after a serious crash.
Here is how I break a car policy into parts, so you can see what each one pays for and decide what belongs on yours.
Send me your declarations page and I will go through it with you line by line, in words that make sense.
You leave with a short list of what to keep, raise or drop
Each piece covers a different kind of bad day. I explain what it pays for and whether it fits your car and budget.
Pays for injuries and property damage you cause. I check whether your limits would truly hold after a serious crash.
Fixes your car after a crash no matter who caused it. I help you judge whether it still earns its cost on an older vehicle.
Handles theft, hail, fire, flooding and a run in with a deer. I explain which events count and which ones do not.
Steps in when the other driver carries too little or nothing at all. I show why this piece is easy to skip and costly to miss.
Helps with medical bills for you and your passengers. I explain how it sits next to the health plan you already have.
Covers a tow, a lockout or a loaner while repairs run. I help you tell useful extras apart from ones you already hold.
Send me the year, make and model of your car, plus who drives it most often.
I go over your current limits and deductibles and point out any gaps I find.
I explain what each limit and deductible means for your car and your budget.
You pick the cover that feels right, at your own pace, with no push from me.
Short answers on the parts of a policy that cause the most confusion.
Start Your QuoteCollision pays when your car hits another car or an object. Comprehensive covers most other harm, such as theft, storms, fire or an animal on the road. Lenders usually want both on a financed car.
They keep you legal, but they were not written around what a serious crash can cost. Anything above your limits could land on you. I help you weigh how much higher makes sense for what you own.
No. It applies to collision and comprehensive, not to liability. It is the share you pay before the policy steps in, so it should be an amount you could cover without strain.
You usually need a policy written for the new state, since rules and required cover change at the border. Tell your insurer before the move so there is no gap in between.
If you have no second car and depend on yours for work, it can save a stressful week. If a household car or a card benefit already fills that need, it may simply repeat what you have.
