Collinsville Insurance aims to Provide Expert care and Quality Service.

At Collinsville Insurance, saving money is a vital concern for nearly everyone in these difficult times. Because of this, you must find the best possible rate for your auto and homeowners insurance policy. Luckily, it is much easier to find a great rate for insurance now than ever before.

The insurance industry has changed drastically in the last decade, with nearly every company offering its product online. In the past, you were stuck accepting whatever type of insurance your agent could find for you. However, people have become accustomed to working directly with insurance companies and handling their policies online. However, there are drawbacks to working directly with an insurer without third-party assistance.

Insurance is complicated; many customers often need help understanding what coverage fits their requirements. As a result, they take the lowest possible rate without looking into the repercussions.

Because of this, working with an independent agency is still an excellent way to obtain insurance. An agent can help you get the coverage you need at an affordable price. Additionally, our agency now offers features that make it even easier. For instance, we enable you to compare insurance quotes online.

When a young adult turns 26, they are no longer eligible to be covered under their parents' health insurance plan. However, they may be eligible to enroll in Medicare if they meet certain criteria.

Medicare is a federal health insurance program primarily for people who are 65 or older, but it also covers people with certain disabilities and those with end-stage renal disease (ESRD).

If a young adult turning 26 has a disability or ESRD, they may be eligible to enroll in Medicare regardless of their age. Additionally, if they have been receiving Social Security Disability Insurance (SSDI) benefits for at least two years, they may also be eligible for Medicare.

Home Insurance Coverage

Risk Factors

You return from a family vacation to discover thieves have stolen electronic equipment from your media room.

Solution

If your possessions are stolen, damaged or destroyed in an insured loss, your home insurance coverage can help replace them, up to the policy’s stated limits.

Renters Insurance Coverage

Risk Factors

On an especially gusty day, strong winds push a small potted plant off your apartment’s balcony and onto a neighbour who is passing below. He is seriously bruised, and decides to sue.

Solution

Renters liability coverage under renters insurance may help if you’re responsible for an injury to someone outside your household.

Auto Insurance Coverage

Risk Factors

You suffer minor injuries when another driver runs a red light and clips your car’s rear fender. On top of it all, the driver doesn’t have auto insurance.

Solution

Uninsured motorist coverage covers the costs of your bodily injuries — up to your policy limit – when they are caused by an at-fault driver without any auto insurance.

Business Owner Coverage

Risk Factors

A business owner would require to take various types of insurance coverage to cover each risk. This can cost them more if they take it separately.

Solution

A business owner policy packages all the required coverage a business owner would need. BOPs often include business interruption, property, vehicle, liability, and crime insurance. Typically, a business owner will save money by choosing a BOP because the bundle of services often costs less than the total cost of all the individual coverage.

Key Person Life Coverage

Risk Factors

A company fails to retain its clients or uphold its reputation based on a particular employee’s skills or name (like a partner at a law firm).

Solution

Key Person Life insurance can be taken to retain clients and uphold their reputation.

Fleet Insurance Coverage

Risk Factors

Your driver meets with accident while driving a company vehicle at night and incurs great damage to your vehicle along with the goods in transit.

Solution

Many policy providers offer coverage for fleet overnight since some businesses might need their vehicles to transport goods within one night.

Cyber Insurance Coverage

Risk Factors

Your office system got hacked, and personally identifiable information was stolen. So you had to hire a public relations firm to restore your brand image.

Solution

Cyber Insurance would cover any loss and pay for hiring a public relations firm.
