Enclosed is your automobile insurance renewal policy. Please review it and contact us with any questions, changes, or corrections. Sorry for the length of this letter, but auto insurance is more complicated than it used to be. We want you to be aware of all available discounts.
Due to the increasing number of law suits being brought against policyholders resulting from automobile accidents, we advise that you consider increasing the liability sections of your policy. Please contact our office for a review of these coverages, at which time we will be happy to discuss the cost and eligibility of an umbrella policy.
Some policy considerations for you…


  • It is very important that any individual who customarily operates your vehicle, whether or not a household member be listed as an operator on your policy. And of course, all household members should be listed, per the Commonwealth of MA.

  • Towing coverage can be purchased for $100 per disablement as well as the standard $50.

  • You may want to review your Substitute Transportation coverage. The $15/day limit covers roughly “half a car” and can be increased to $30, $45 or $100/day for additional cost.

  • If your vehicle has been customized in any way which increases its value it is important to protect the added value. Unless you make special arrangements and have paid additional premium, your company will only pay the actual cash value (ACV) of your auto.

  • Mobile phones are excluded from MA auto policies but can be added if built-in to your car.

  • Most of our companies offer an enhanced coverage package that includes mobile phones. Contact us to find out if you are eligible to add it to your policy and the cost.

  • The city/town where you garage your car is one of the determining factors for insurance cost. If you (or someone on your behalf) give false information on garaging location, the company may refuse to pay claims under any or all of the policy optional insurance sections/limits.

  • The MBTA discount has been removed from MA auto policies. As a result, most of the companies have raised their low mileage discount limits, some up to 15,000 miles/year.

  • Vehicles used for business should be rated this way. Call us if you are unsure if it applies to you.

  • When travelling outside the U.S. your policy DOES NOT cover your car or a rental car. Please contact us with questions before travelling. Coverage follows to Puerto Rico and Canada.

Please keep us updated with following information, different companies have different discount offers & requirements:



AAA membership/roadside assistance

Account credit (multiple policies)

Annual mileage

Annual payment in full

Anti-theft devices

Green Discount (paper free)

Hybrid vehicles

Loyalty

Property (house, condo, tenant) policy

Students (away at school and grades based)

Years lived in same location (home or town/city)



We write and handle your auto insurance; do we handle your property insurance? We have a number of companies that offer a discount on house, condominium or apartment insurance if we (or they) also handle your auto. Why not let us quote you a price? Contact the office to discuss packaging your policies to save money. We also have companies that will write a coastal property.
The Registry of Motor Vehicles (RMV) now allows registrants to cancel plates on their website.

http://www.massdot.state.ma.us/rmv/ After cancelling the plates, let us know so we cancel the insurance for that vehicle. If you don’t tell us, the RMV never will!
Remember to notify us and the RMV if you move, change your name, or buy/lease a new/used auto. Also pay careful attention to the date your safety inspection sticker and registration expire: the police are required to give tickets and may tow your car if either has expired.
We have on-site Registry service. No more trips back and forth…we can issue, transfer and renew plates from my office. There is an electronic fee charge of $15 (the same as the runner fee). In addition to traditional MA personal auto plates, we offer Special (Red Sox, Patriots and Invest in Children), Commercial, Trailer & Motorcycle plates.
I have purchased an H&R Block franchise located at 30 Boston Street, Lynn. Phone 781-477-0297. All my insurance clients receive a price discount on their tax preparation. I can meet with you in either office. Call to schedule an appointment or find out what paperwork to drop off.
