Anyone know where I can search for an insurance company?

Does anybody know of a website that allows you to search for all of the insurance companies in a given area?

Thanks!

Sorry I should have been more clear, I was thinking more along the lines of an actuarial job search.

You can find a list of all insurers licensed to do business in your state, on your state insurance department website. It's a MASSIVE search.

Or, if you're looking for something in particular, you should go find a local, independent agent, who can find a company for you.

MOST insurance companies do NOT write policies directly for someone. Most of the time, you HAVE to go through an agent.

You could probably look on-line at you State's Department of Insurance but you would have to look up each individual company.

What are you loooking FOR? Do you have a particular COMPANY in mind?

The best thing to do is call a LOCAL independent agent. Don't go across town, or to some other city - look for someone CLOSE. Just look in the phone book for the PIA or Big I (Trusted Choice) logos and you will find a professional licensed agent that will be able to help you solve your insurance problems, and give you rate comparisons of several different companies.

An independent insurance agent will normally have a dozen different companies and if he cannot help you, he should be networked with other local agents that can.

Most of the replies on this site say "go to this on-line carrier or that on-line carrier or that 1-800 number" but I'm sure that when you do, you will find some impersonal computer user with a script to work from and you won't be able to talk with the same person every time you have a problem!

Good luck and I hope this helps!
