The SR-22 process has some intricacies that an independent agent can help you navigate. The complexity and cost of SR-22 policies mean that you want to work with a subject matter expert. Not all agents have this expertise, especially captive agents.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

While a captive agent can only work with their sole carrier, an independent agent can search the entire market on your behalf for a policy that meets your needs. An independent agent can also personalize your insurance process to match your specific needs, including <\/span>DUI<\/span><\/a> situations, legal challenges, and state requirements.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

By searching multiple carriers, an independent agent can help you get the best price for your premiums. Working with one person over the long run can provide you with serious advantages later, especially after your financial responsibility reporting period has ended and you need to search for a new policy without this requirement.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Overall, working with an independent insurance agent can provide peace of mind, customized coverage, and valuable guidance and support throughout the SR-22 insurance process. Read on to learn more about how you can find the right agent for your auto insurance needs!<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Subject Matter Expertise for SR-22<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n

Unlike regular auto insurance customers, drivers who need their insurer to submit proof of financial responsibility to the state on their behalf tend to have significantly more risk.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

DUIs, driving recklessly, and driving without proper insurance can all result in the state requiring you to submit proof of financial responsibility on a regular basis that indicates that you carry the minimum amount of liability coverage required.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Many insurers will not even work with drivers who have a need for an SR-22. For the insurers that do accept these drivers, they will usually require <\/span>higher premiums<\/span><\/a> to offset the risk they take for insuring the driver.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

An independent agent specializing in serving high-risk drivers knows how to navigate the insurance market. A good agent can also help you to understand what to expect throughout the process, including the initial SR-22 submission and what happens after the SR-22 period ends.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n\n
