IS YOUR INSURANCE
AGENT LOCKED INTO
ONE COMPANY?
There are 2 ways to buy insurance. You can buy your insurance from a one-company agent.
But they're locked into only those policies that their company sells. So their hands are tied.
Or you con buy your insurance from an Independent Insurance Agent... the more
than-one-company agent. You see, a Big "T" Independent Agent like us doesn't work for
just one company. We represent several. So we're free to give you an impartial,
independent opinion and help advise you on the best coverage ^
at the best price. And that goes for homeowners, automobile,
business, life and health insurance. f YOUnlMkleoendtl^
