My family has been with Gerry for 20+ years now. He's always very attentive to any request and the few claims I've had to make have always been handled as smoothly as possible. I would highly recommend his office.

Great explanation of coverage! I appreciate the time that was taken to explain what it is that I'm paying for. I had a claim back in May 2016 on my car and everything was handled with ease. Office was great and the claim department was quick in providing service and advice.

I am currently in the middle of a claim. Last week's rain storm was a big one. The ceiling in my kitchen collapsed which caused my wood floor to buckle. There is obvious roof damage which caused the leak. Not only did I have to have numerous arguments to get an adjuster to show up in a timely fashion (5 days later) there is no one to help me through the process of making my first ever claim. Everyone who has undergone a home repair understands contractors don't work for free. They aren't cheap either. I have thousands in damage. Want to know what AFI wants to compensate me? $1,254. I am left speechless while I try to figure out how to fix a roof, wood floor, drywall, paint, insulation, etc. with this amount of money. I only have a $1,000 deductible and most likely cannot file this claim now. I called the office today to stress my displeasure and ask for some customer support to help with the adjusters assessment. What did I receive on the other end? Attitude! If you are shopping for insurance, I would run as far from this office as possible. Actually, I'm not sure if this is AFI's corporate policy or Gerald Stark's office policy. Stay away from AFI unless you want to pay out of pocket for Catastrophe claims. Obviously, when you need the insurance company most.

Are there times I shouldn’t bundle my insurance?

The most important thing to remember about insurance is that it’s there to protect you from the unexpected. You’ll want to evaluate if the savings are worth it based on the coverage you need. In other words, if you’re changing providers to bundle, but have less coverage than before, you could potentially be at risk of spending more when filing a claim. So keep in mind, if your bundled plan doesn’t match the quality of protection on your separate insurance policies, you might be better off not bundling. Our advice? Connect with your agent to make sure you’re getting the best coverage and the best savings.

What does it mean to bundle insurance?

You’ll often see the word “bundle” when searching for insurance — but what does bundling mean and how can it help you? Simply put, the definition of bundling is when you buy multiple insurance products with the same provider.
