Insure What You Love!

In February there's lots to love. We celebrate Black History Month, Library Lover's Month, American Heart Month, World Cancer Day, Valentine's Day, Presidents' Day, and there's even an Umbrella Day. Now is a good time to review what insurance you have for all the things you love, what you are paying for it, and what changes to consider to get the protections that you need. Make time to call your agent or visit our website for assistance.

Remember, the Maryland Insurance Administration does not sell insurance and we cannot recommend a particular policy or insurance company. We can help you learn what types of coverage are available, at what cost, and assist you if you have a complaint about how your insurance company responds when you file a claim.

Protect the Ones You Love

Life insurance is a way to keep taking care of the ones you love even after you're gone. For more information and tips about finding the best policy for you, contact your insurance company or agent, or you can visit our website. Click here.

American Heart Month

Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the U.S. Devoting a little time every day to care for yourself can go a long way toward protecting your heart health.

Umbrella Insurance

Just as an umbrella is used to keep you protected, an umbrella insurance policy provides extra liability insurance protection. To learn more about umbrella insurance, watch this video or read this consumer advisory.
