Garrick Insurance Agency

(2 reviews)

Michael Garrick is the man. More on that later…read more About me: My sister recently passed away from lung cancer and it served as a huge wakeup call for me. I knew that I needed to step up my insurance game and Michael Garrick, or 'Big Mike' as we like to call him, educated me on a policy with a Living Benefit Rider -- basically, should anything serious happen to you (like cancer) you are able to accelerate the payouts. Big Mike wrote us 2 policies last year and 1 this year. I cannot overstate the peace of mind that it's given me. Mike Garrick is the consummate pro. I am always able to get a hold of him -- this is incredibly reassuring. One of the major complaints that I've heard from those who buy life insurance policies is that there is no one around to answer their questions after they have purchased the policy. This is never the case with Big Mike. When he's not available via phone, he follows up with an immediate text. He is a wealth of knowledge on the industry and is able to offer a comprehensive selection of products and services that can meet any reasonable need a client might have. Most importantly, he puts the client's needs first and never hard-sells you on any particular product. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

I contacted Michael because I heard he could help us save money on our home insurance. I requested…read morea quote and realized I could be saving half on my home insurance! Michael handled everything from A to Z. He was extremely helpful and responsive. I would definitely recommend anyone looking to save on any type of insurance to contact him!

I live in CA need I say more? Well, I will anyway. I have a perfect driving record with this…read moreLiberty Mutual for 20 years, and they arbitrarily cancelled me and stuck me with a sleazeball company called Safeco due to greed. STAY AWAY FROM THIS COMPANY!!!!!

I've been with Liberty Mutual for my auto insurance for probably 30+ years (with only one claim, I…read moremight add). Last week I rec'd a letter from LM stating they are done with CA. They encouraged me to embrace their partnering insurance company, Safeco (I distrusted the name immediately), who would be picking up my coverage in May after LM goes wherever they're going. (Hell comes to mind.) Then, a few days ago, I rec'd my new Safeco policy, which indicated my annual premium will *double*! (See? I told you the name sounded nefarious.) Turns out Safeco (which is still owned by LM) uses Companion, a so-called agency to provide its customers with brand new agents. (Again, the red flags flew high at hearing this unbeknownst-to-me company name!) Enter A.J. Franco (he insists on just "A.J."), who admittedly is just another grain of salt in the sea. A.J. confirmed my assertion that regardless of who owns whom, it's basically LM that approved Safeco's request to raise policyholders' premiums (up to but not to exceed a 65% increase!). Boy did I get lucky that my policy premium only went up 50 percent, right? A.J., who by no fault of his own is tangentially tied to LM via Safeco via Companion, certainly wasn't shocked at my disclosing dissatisfaction with how things have been handled. Long story short, I told Mr. Franco what I thought about LM's duplicitous "passing the buck" to a greedy, unappreciative insurance company like Safeco, and told him that as of May 20 (my expiration date), I'd be looking elsewhere for my auto insurance, as I cannot and will not support Safeco/LM in any way any longer. To his credit, Mr. Franco offered to help find me a lower-priced insurance policy carrier, which is basically what Companion does. Yet, of course, this means A.J. will be sleuthing through Companion's network of insurance companies, so by extension undoubtedly through Safeco/LM's approved network. I'm now being introduced to some company called Mercury (AGAIN, the name is ridiculously sinister), that, according to A.J., might be able to help me, though for the record, nothing was put in writing. (Shocking, right?) After I pulled myself from what felt almost assuredly like the turbulent spin cycle of a high-powered washing machine, I agreed to review any and all policy options (which I admit A.J. did provide in a timely manner). What's my point? (Yes, I have a point.) I guess I'm just looking for recommendations for a decent auto insurance policy provider, if one exists at all. I'd also welcome others to share their experiences with LM (or Safeco... or Companion... or even Mercury). As for companies like State Farm Insurance and Liberty Mutual, who I don't blame for wanting out of CA, I do blame them for clandestinely arranging for subsequent coverage that's indicative of highway robbery at best, should the company be trying to assist at all. This all said, do any of my fine CA neighbors have a recommendation? Is there even an insurance company left in CA that can deliver a fair policy? Maybe between this and the two recent vehicular acts of violence I've had to contend with, it's simply a sign neither CA nor driving are viable lifestyle options any longer. Frustrated and vandalized, Jim on Dublin Ave. (in Oakland), last seen shopping on the internet for a new auto insurance provider
