Insurance Agencies Inc.
In the 1920s, homeowner's insurance cost $8.55 for a $1500 building. Do you know how much your insurance is today? With so many ways to purchase insurance, and so many different policies, the entire industry can feel overwhelming and impersonal. Unless, that is, you reach out to Brigantine's Insurance Agencies Inc (IAI). Since its beginning, lAl has had one singular mission, "Take care of your customers and they will take care of you."
Back in 1988, IAl was formed as a partnership... linking together smaller independent agencies in the area so customers can gain access to more insurance companies under one single roof. Though it was born in the late 1980s, two of its individual agencies, CJ Adams Insurance and Siracusa-Kaufmann Insurance, started selling both real estate and home insurance in the late 1800s. All lAl's member agencies have deep roots in the communities they serve in Atlantic, Cape May, and surrounding counties, including, of course, Brigantine Island.
They established an office in Brigantine because there were so many policies here, and because they had the perfect team member to run it - Personal Lines Manager Kim Schenck.
"Kim was raised in Brigantine and is passionate about our island town. She serves on the Brigantine Chamber of Commerce and is always the first to ask about lAl putting a table at the Farmers Market or the Eagles beach tailgate or sponsoring various events and publications around town. Between her and her team led by Nora Kessler and Terry Andros, the office in Brigantine has been one of their biggest successes," said IAl's Adam Miller.
Access to more carriers is just one of the advantages of using IAl. Another is availability and personal service. While insurance commercials with catchy jingles and funny mascots may be entertaining, what customers really need is someone to pick up the phone When they call IAl's team will take care of you when you need them.
"As the region's top insurance agency, our priority is being there for our customers. That means being in-person during office hours, picking up when customers call, answering their questions when we can, and getting them answers when we don't. It sounds simple, but it's really what we focus on every day," said Adam.
From pricing different carriers to policy questions and billing issues, Al will be there if you need help or if something goes wrong and you need to use your insurance. Just give them a call.
