September is Preparedness Month. Are you ready in the event of a disaster? There are lots of ways you can prepare. While some events are unavoidable, there are precautionary steps we can take to be better prepared. Below are resources to consider:
While the Maryland Insurance Administration does not sell insurance and we cannot recommend a particular policy or insurance company, we do want to help you learn what types of coverage are available. Additionally, we are here to assist you if you have a complaint involving an insurer, an insurance producer, public adjuster or adviser.
