As the days get shorter, deer become much more active and are more likely to cross roadways — especially around dawn and dusk. This increased activity can pose serious risks to drivers, and hitting a deer can be a distressing and upsetting experience.

With that in mind, our team wants to share a few reminders to help keep you and your passengers safe this season and navigate the aftermath of striking a deer. Swipe for more.

Most homeowners or drivers have some form of homeowners and auto insurance; however, their coverage might not be enough to protect them in the event of a major claim.

When a serious accident or unexpected lawsuit exceeds what your existing policies can cover, the gap between what you owe and what your insurance pays becomes very real, very fast. That’s where umbrella liability coverage comes in.

Umbrella liability insurance covers costs that would otherwise come straight out of your pocket. With relatively low annual costs, this comprehensive coverage can be one of the most affordable ways to fully protect what you love.

So, if you’re curious about whether umbrella insurance makes sense for your situation, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our team. We are here to help you run the numbers and see what makes sense.

September 30th is a key sales closing date for many fall-seeded crops, including winter wheat, and it is also the annual sign-up deadline for margin protection on certain spring-seeded crops such as corn, soybeans, and spring wheat, where applicable.

By the sales closing date, producers may need to apply for coverage, make changes to existing coverage, review policy options, and confirm that their protection still aligns with their plans for the coming crop year.

Missing the applicable sales closing date can mean missing the opportunity to put the desired coverage in place for that crop year. That is especially important for producers who want to revisit coverage levels, look at risk-management options, or add tools like margin protection before the window closes.

This is a good time to review your crops, acreage plans, and current coverage choices, and to think through whether your operation has changed since last season.

If you need any assistance or want to talk through your options ahead of the September 30th deadline, don’t hesitate to give our team a call.

Can you believe there are only 100 days left in the year? Before the final stretch gets away from you, it is worth pausing to ask one simple question: has your life changed this year?

A new car, a home purchase, a career change — these are the kinds of milestones worth celebrating. They are also the kinds of changes that can quietly create gaps in your insurance coverage if your policies have not kept up.

Here are some of the most common life events that can affect your coverage:

✅ You bought a new home or renovated your home. A new home purchase or extensive renovations require coverage that reflects the property's true replacement cost, not just its market value.

✅ You purchased a new car. Purchasing a new car is a change that always merits a check-in about your insurance coverage, especially if you purchased a car worth more than the vehicle you were previously driving.

✅ Your family or household situation changed. Marriage, divorce, welcoming a new child, adding a teen driver, sending a child off to college, or welcoming an adult child back home are all changes that can affect your auto and homeowners coverage.

✅ You’ve acquired new valuables or heirlooms. If you’ve recently obtained or inherited new jewelry, art, or other collectibles, it may be worth reviewing whether these items would be fully covered under your current homeowners policy.

✅ Your income, assets, or career changed. A promotion, a new job, a side business, or an inheritance can all increase your financial exposure in ways your current coverage may not reflect.

If any of these sound familiar, our team would love to take a few minutes to review your policies together and ensure everything still aligns with where you are now. It's a simple conversation that can make a real difference.

Feel free to reach out anytime. We are here to help ensure your coverage keeps up with your needs.
