We do not work for an insurance company. We are a licensed brokerage on Long Island servicing clients that are seeking coverage. Based on your needs, we will provide you with quotes from top insurance companies in New York that we feel will be your best options for coverage. In the end however, it is you that selects the carrier.  We are merely your liaisons.

A company agent is under contract with a specific insurance carrier and can only write business from that carrier. A broker is not captive to any one company and represents the client. Thus, we can shop your needs with all the top carriers the state of NY to find the coverage you need and at the most competitive price.

Most of these forms are from lead companies that sell your information to various company agents. By filling out those forms (and agreeing to their terms and conditions), up to eight licensed agents that have bought your information will be bombarding you with phone calls trying to get you to take an application for coverage. While these are legitimate agents calling you, it can be quite a headache dealing with all those calls, voicemails and perhaps, even increased cell phone bills.

We feel our site provides you with enough information to get you thinking in the right direction with regards to what you need to consider for coverage. When you are ready, call us at Insurance Suffolk to discuss your needs and we’ll be happy to help you.

I’m looking to get homeowners insurance. Is there an advantage to having my auto, homeowners and umbrella policies with the same company?
