I've known Ed for 16 years now and he has helped me when other insurance providers either turned me down or simply... didn't want to deal with me at all. I have a lot of medical issues that make it difficult if not impossible to be insured but Ed worked with me to keep my policy active. He also gave me a 'heads-up' to save me money by renewing prior to an age related rate increase. I would recommend Ed (and have) to anyone looking for coverage- one of the nicest guys I've ever had the pleasure of knowing.read more
