Before your kids head out the door, make sure they know how to get to school safely, no matter how they are getting there. Here are a few tips to keep in mind:

🔵Walking to school? Stick to sidewalks, cross only at crosswalks, make eye contact with drivers before stepping into the street, and always walk in a group when possible.

🔵Riding a bike? A properly fitted helmet is non-negotiable. Remind students to ride on the right side of the road with traffic, come to a complete stop before crossing, and choose a route with minimal intersections and light traffic.

🔵Taking the bus? Students should stand at least 6 feet back from the curb when waiting for a bus, wait for the bus to come to a complete stop before boarding, and never walk behind or in front of a bus without making eye contact with the driver first.

🔵Getting dropped off? If you drive your child to school, obey school zone speed limits, follow your school's drop-off procedure, and never pass a bus that is loading or unloading children.

🔵Teen drivers? Review the basics of safe driving. This includes, but is not limited to, having all passengers wear seatbelts, putting devices away while driving, and driving the speed limit.

We hope you find these tips helpful as students transition back to school. As always, if you have any needs or questions, do not hesitate to reach out to our team. We are happy to help.

Today, our team wanted to share some key information about a life insurance policy issue we’ve seen over the years: insufficient coverage. Many people establish life insurance policies, then ignore them for years — even though their income has increased, and they’ve assumed greater financial responsibilities (such as getting married, having children, or taking on a mortgage).

Life insurance is designed to replace your income. If your paycheck supports your household, regardless of what that looks like, your coverage should reflect that responsibility. Swipe for key details on how to estimate your current life insurance needs and when it makes sense to review your policies.

If it’s been a while since you last reviewed your coverage, or if your income has changed significantly since we last spoke, our team would be happy to help you take a closer look and ensure everything still aligns with your current situation.

If you have ever wondered what would actually happen to your payout after a covered loss, the answer often comes down to one question: Does your policy use replacement cost value or actual cash value?

These two coverage types work very differently, and understanding them can save you from a costly surprise when you file a claim. Swipe through for a clear breakdown of each.

Have questions about your current coverage or which option is right for you? Give us a call today.

If you’ve ever loaned your car to a friend or borrowed someone else’s vehicle, you may have wondered what happens if an accident occurs. Would the vehicle owner’s insurance apply — or would the driver’s policy take over?

In most situations, auto insurance follows the vehicle first, not the driver. That means the car's policy is usually the primary source of coverage in the event of an accident. However, that’s not always the case. Swipe for some key details about when the vehicle owner’s policy kicks in and when the driver’s policy is used.

If you’re ever unsure how your coverage applies, want to double-check your policy, or layer on additional auto coverages, we’re always happy to take a look with you. Feel free to give our team a call. We are here to be a resource for you.
