Report Claims Directly to Your Carrier Within 24 Hours

• When you need to report a claim, all of our carriers offer 24-hour toll-free reporting, 365 days a year. There you can report your claim and get immediate answers for all your concerns.
• A claims representative will contact you approximately two hours from the time you report your claim. The representative will answer your questions and schedule an inspection of your vehicle or property. Be sure to discuss any questions you have about deductibles, what is covered and the specific repairs at this time.
• For auto claims, we will inspect your vehicle’s damage at “your” convenience. No need to drive all over town to various claims centers or collision shops for “three estimates”.

For Auto Claims

• Your vehicle can be taken to the repair shop of your choice, not ours. If you require assistance in selecting a repair shop we can suggest one for you.
• If you need a rental car and your policy covers one, your claims representative can make arrangements for a rental. Keep in mind that rental reimbursement varies based on policy coverages and accident circumstances.
• If you use a carrier-suggested repair shop, you’ll get a lifetime guarantee on the repairs, which is valid for as long as you own or lease the car.

We will keep you informed about your claim by periodically checking the status of repairs and addressing any further issues, such as additional damage, supplemental payments or changes to the expected completion date.

We settle your claim quickly, fairly and accurately so you can move on with your life.
