Why You Should Use an Insurance Broker

Posted January 30, 2017 in Uncategorized

If you’re in the game to get insurance, you might be overwhelmed by the multitude of policies and coverage options available. Insurance agents and brokers help their clients navigate the murky waters of insurance coverage. However, the key difference between agents and brokers is that a broker is an advocate in your corner working for you.

Insurance agents can work independently or for a specific insurance company. However, an agent’s job is to be a liaison between you and the insurance company, not to suggest the best insurance coverage for you. If you are unfamiliar with the ins and outs of insurance policies, working with an agent can leave you woefully undercovered or paying too much for unneeded coverage.

An insurance broker, on the other hand, is held to a higher standard than traditional insurance agents. They act as a middleman between you and the insurance company, but it is their main job to advocate for your needs. A broker will strive to provide you with the best possible policies and ensure that you receive full, customized coverage.

Benefits of an Insurance Broker

Experience and Education

Insurance brokers are required to have a broker’s license, which can only be obtained through extensive training and education. An educated broker ensures that you’re not only picking the right policy for you or your business but that you are also compliant with all federal and state insurance laws. With an insurance broker, you have the peace of mind that you are properly protected.

Unbiased Opinions

Insurance brokers often work with multiple insurance companies, which allows you to gain customized coverage. However, since your broker isn’t working with any one insurance company, you can feel more confident that their insurance suggestions are unbiased and targeted towards providing you with the best policy possible.

Wide Range of Policy Offers

Working with a number of insurance companies allows you to gain customized coverage that is tailored to your or your business needs. Being able to shop multiple companies allows you to get the best coverage for the best price. Additionally, your broker does all of the legwork by contacting companies, saving you the time and stress of doing it yourself.
