An annual review
When it comes to commercial truck insurance in Louisiana, it’s important to thoroughly review your policy every year. This is an opportunity to make sure you’re getting the coverage you need at the right price. At American Insurance Brokers, we provide free annual policy reviews for any type of commercial vehicle.
During this type of review, we’ll typically look for three important components. First, we’ll examine your current deductibles and limits. The amount you will have to pay before the insurance company makes any payment (the deductible) should be relatively low. When it comes to the absolute limit regarding what the insurance company is required to pay, the number should be considerably high for your industry and risk profile.
Next, our team will check for compliance with all federal and state requirements. This has to do with the regulatory filings previously discussed. While there are many forms to keep track of, your insurance company should always ensure that you’re up to date while enrolled in one of their policies.
Finally, we’ll make sure you’re on board with a responsive insurance company. If disaster strikes, it’s important to have a team that will work tirelessly to get you back on the road. American Insurance Brokers works with more than 35 “A” rated truck insurance companies. That means you will get the most competitive price for your insurance, as well as excellent customer service if challenges occur.
