I never thought I'd read any book about "insurance" - but this one is a page-turner. It gave me instant insight and confidence to manage an ugly situation and come out ok. Before this, I had no idea of what really goes on when your car is repaired and how awful it is to get an insurance company to do the right thing (especially when it came to safety issues!) The book is now my "bible" - and I give it to everyone I know who buys a new car!

They will use your ignorance to take advantage of you. You can't trust them. If your insurance company thinks they can get away with it (cutting corners to save money), they will try it. Avoid being a victim to the people you have paid to protect you.

As an insurance agent with a very reputable company, I take offense to the writers' comments and attacks on the entire insurance industry. Believe it or not, there are still salesmen in the world today who are not just trying to make the next buck. I strive to provide the type of service that each and every policy holder desires and to look out for their best interests at every given opportunity. I have never sent an insured to a lower quality repair service to save the company a dollar. I tell everyone who takes the time to ask exactly what I would do in their given situation. The bottom line is this: Insurance salesmen are like every other type of salesmen in the world...Not all of them are trustworthy and reputable, but you can't stereotype all of them because of the actions of one.
