Scott saved me when he speedily readied my flood insurance for an already troubled escrow. I had shopped for flood insurance and thought I had secured a bonded policy, but never heard back from the agent until it was too late. Scott stepped up and made it happen. He was professional, courteous, and so very helpful. I'm in my new home thanks to those that helped along the way. You're in good hands with Scott as your agent. read more

Scott responded very quickly, and altho I didn't end up working with him bc condo insurance is tough to get in CA, I appreciated and admired his straightforward, honest, and empathic reply, letting me know that he could provide quotes for non-admitted companies only. But he pointed me to a few of the larger insurance companies that might be able to help me, and sure enough, one of them worked out. So grateful for your help, Scott! read more

Scott Johnson was great. He steered me towards a company which has now insured my home, after I had received a cancellation notice from my previous broker who was not helpful in finding a replacement. Scott does not have access to the company he recommended- they have their own agents, so he did not profit from his advice. That is integrity- not always a given in this industry. I would not hesitate to approach him with any insurance needs. read more

Scott is amazing! He's so responsive and looked into my insurance options in couple hours. I was able to find one after talking to the agent referred by him. I feel very thankful!! read more

Outstanding experience with Scott and Marindependent Insurance Services. Scott is a true expert in the field and a total class act. He's responsive, engaged, professional, and highly personable. It was clear he had our best interests at heart through the entire process of securing a new policy, which is no small feat here in Marin, and we're absolutely thrilled with our new policy which, by every single measure, is better than our last. Couldn't be happier. read more

I contacted Scott for auto insurance and am very grateful for his responsiveness and professionalism!

Scott worked hard to find coverage for my house. Because of some issues with this old home, insurers were hard to find, but not because of any lack of effort on Scott's part. He also suggested another insurer who might offer coverage. Who DOES that? I recommend him for his hard work and truly helpful attitude. read more

Scott was very responsive and helpful in assisting with evaluating my current P&C insurance needs. Because he concluded I had a compelling offer at this stage from my existing agent and carrier, I did not end up purchasing a policy through Scott. However, I will keep him top of mind when I revisit my policies next time. read more

Scott has been my insurance agent for many years and I can't recommend him enough. He has built up my trust completely by always being honest, professional, reliable, diligent and helpful. He reviews my policies and advises on how to reduce costs, cover gaps or modify coverage. He has also got me coverage when others could not. Everyone needs a good insurance person. I recommend Scott Johnson at Marindependent Insurance. read more

Upon my annual review of insurance policies coming due, I was advised to find and consult an Independent Insurance Agent to assist. I found Scott and one other agent on Yelp, and left voice messages. One did not return my call. Scott returned my call promptly, even though it happened to be during his vacation. Scott advised me on several insurance questions, explaining nuances, over the course of a few weeks, knowing that my existing insurance may be the best fit. At no time did he pressure me into an option that would result in him earning a commission of any kind, and in the end, his advice kept me with my existing provider. I asked if I could just pay him for his time. He declined, and just asked me to keep him in mind for referrals. In a financial world where finding a "trusted advisor" is key, Scott deserves that description. read more

Scott is a diligent and knowledgeable insurance broker. He spent a lot of time on the phone with me, offering advice, recommending coverage, and walking me through a number of uncertainties in the wildfire-prone (and constantly changing) Marin County home insurance market. Scott has your best interest at the forefront of his business. He fully supported my efforts to get the best and most cost-effective insurance for my needs, even when this meant that he would no longer have my business. Highly recommended! read more

Thanks Scott, Contacted Marindependent when I needed to get renters insurance. Scott was great, he talked me through all my different options and gave me his advice and not a sales pitch unlike some other insurers. I got the feeling Scott really did care about his cutomers. He gave me some great advice and was always quick to reply to any questions I had. I ended up with a great price for my policy and Scott even gave me a follow up call a week later to make sure everything was ok. Thanks again Scott read more

Scott helped me find home coverage that I had nearly given up on, and his professionalism was head and shoulders above any other broker I had worked with before. Prior to finding Scott, I had resigned myself to the California Fair Plan for fire insurance, due to the fire hazard in Marin. A handful of other brokers had been unable to find an alternative that came even remotely close in cost. To my amazement, Scott not only found a carrier but he halved my premium. In addition, he explained to me the subtler points behind the choices I needed to make. He then found me better coverage for auto and umbrella. He was quick and always to the point. High recommend! read more

He went above and beyond, and his knowledge, professionalism, courtesy and insight were incredibly impressive and for the first time during this process, I felt confident and relieved. Thank you, Scott. read more

Scott and Marindependent are true standouts in the insurance field. After my homeowners' carrier cancelled our policy due to a trampoline, and seemingly every other carrier wouldn't cover us due to fire risk concerns in Marin, Scott went the extra mile to find us a top notch carrier, more appropriate coverage terms and all without a rate increase compared to our prior premiums. Insurance is complicated field and it really helps to have an agent that will go to bat for you, which Scott did for us in spades. read more
