Lines of Coverage

Personal and commercial insurance, from a single accountable relationship.

We place coverage across all major lines. Each line is reviewed for adequacy, not just premium.

Personal Lines

Auto, homeowners, renters, umbrella, watercraft, and scheduled personal property. We compare rates across carriers and explain what you're actually buying.

  • Auto: liability, collision, comprehensive, uninsured motorist
  • Home: dwelling, contents, liability, flood riders
  • Life: term, whole, and indexed universal options reviewed
  • Umbrella: excess liability starting at $1M layers

Commercial Lines

BOP, general liability, commercial auto, workers' compensation, professional liability, and commercial umbrella for businesses of all sizes.

  • BOP: property + general liability bundled
  • Workers' comp: state-compliant, experience-rated
  • E&O / D&O: professional and management liability
  • Commercial umbrella: protecting assets beyond primary limits

Coverage Review & Comparison

Already insured? We'll audit your current policy for coverage gaps, redundancy, and savings — at no cost and no obligation.

  • Multi-policy discount analysis
  • Annual renewal check against current carrier rates

Claims Advocacy

When a claim happens, you need an advocate who understands the policy language. We help coordinate the process and communicate with adjusters on your behalf.

  • First-notice-of-loss guidance
  • Documentation and evidence checklist
  • Adjuster communication support
  • Dispute escalation referral when appropriate

We compare. You choose. No single-carrier bias.

Our appointments include admitted carriers, E&S markets, and specialty programs — giving us options most captive agents don't have.

Standard Markets

Preferred-risk personal and commercial lines through AM Best A-rated admitted carriers. Competitive rates for qualifying risks.

Non-Standard & Surplus Lines

High-value homes, specialty vehicles, hard-to-place commercial risks, and admitted-market declines placed through E&S markets.

Specialty Programs

Industry-specific programs for contractors, hospitality, healthcare-adjacent, and professional service businesses with tailored endorsements.

Group & Association Plans

Trade association group health, group life, and voluntary benefit access for employer groups and member organizations.

Why ShieldPlan

What makes an independent agency different.

Objective Carrier Selection

No single carrier owns our book. We quote the market and explain every material difference between offers — limits, exclusions, carrier rating, and price.

Licensed, Not Just Friendly

Every producer holds active state licensure. We hold continuing education credits in the lines we sell. You can verify our license number at your state's DOI.

Documented Recommendations

We put our recommendations in writing. The coverage comparison, the declinations, the alternatives — all documented before you sign anything.

No Commission Surprises

Compensation is disclosed upfront. We don't earn more for recommending higher limits or specific carriers — our incentive is your retention, not your first check.

About the Agency

Independent for 18 years. Accountable every renewal.

ShieldPlan Insurance Group was founded on the premise that insurance advice should be honest, not driven by carrier incentives. We've placed coverage for families, small businesses, contractors, and professional service firms across the region.

Our producers hold active P&C, Life, and Surplus Lines licenses. We maintain E&O coverage, carry professional liability on our own book, and participate in annual continuing education. We believe the people we insure deserve the same standard of risk management we apply to ourselves.
