Most homeowners and drivers carry basic home and auto insurance, but those policies don’t always go far enough when a major claim happens.

If an accident or lawsuit exceeds your coverage limits, you’re responsible for the difference — and that financial gap can add up fast. That’s where umbrella liability insurance steps in.

Umbrella coverage adds an extra layer of protection on top of your existing policies, helping safeguard your savings, home, and future. And with relatively low annual costs, it’s one of the most affordable ways to strengthen your overall protection.

If you’re wondering whether umbrella insurance makes sense for you, our team at Goodenow Insurance Agency Inc is here to help you walk through the details. Give us a call or reach out anytime to get started.

The freelance workforce in the U.S. has grown significantly in recent years, reaching 72.9 million freelancers in 2025. However, one of the biggest challenges many freelancers and self-employed individuals face is finding affordable, comprehensive health insurance coverage.

Without access to traditional employer-sponsored benefits, navigating health insurance options can feel overwhelming. Fortunately, several solutions are available, depending on your unique situation, including:

🔹Health insurance marketplace plans
🔹Medicaid
🔹State assistance programs
🔹Private health insurance options
🔹Supplemental coverage such as dental, vision, and accident insurance

Having the right coverage in place can help protect you from unexpected medical expenses and provide greater peace of mind as you focus on growing your business.

Our team understands the unique needs of freelancers and self-employed professionals and can help you explore health insurance options that fit your goals and budget. Contact us today to learn more about your coverage options and find a plan that works for you.

As fall approaches and daylight gets shorter, deer activity jumps — especially during early morning and evening hours. For businesses with drivers on the road, this seasonal shift can increase the risk of collisions and unexpected vehicle downtime.

Our team wants to help keep your employees and business vehicles safe, so here are a few reminders for the season:
• Stay alert during dawn and dusk
• Reduce speed in high‑traffic wildlife areas
• Remind drivers to avoid swerving if a deer crosses unexpectedly

If you’re unsure what your commercial auto insurance currently covers or want a fall coverage review, we’re here to help. Reach out anytime, and our team will walk you through your options.

Many health insurance plans include preventive screenings at little or no cost, making it easier to stay on top of your health. If you’re unsure whether your plan covers breast cancer screenings, our team at Goodenow Insurance Agency Inc is here to help. Feel free to reach out with any questions.

It’s hard to believe there are only 100 days left in the year. As things get busy, this is a great time to pause and ask: have your major life changes been reflected in your insurance coverage?

Our team at Goodenow Insurance Agency Inc works with individuals, families, and businesses across Illinois, and we often see gaps appear when big milestones happen. A few changes that may mean it’s time for a review:

• You bought a new home or completed major renovations
• You purchased a new car
• Your household changed — marriage, divorce, a new child, a teen driver, or a child heading to college
• You added new valuables like jewelry, art, or collectibles
• Your income, assets, job, or business situation shifted

If any of these sound familiar, we’re here to help you make sure your auto, home, life, health, or business coverage still fits your needs.

Have questions or want a quick policy check-in? Reach out anytime — we’re always here to help.
