In 1966, Gerard P. Smith was working for a major insurance carrier when he realized that something was missing. Gerard knew he had more to offer and he wanted to provide something better for his customers. So, he parted ways with the major carrier and set up a desk and telephone in the family room of his village home.
Gerard P Smith Insurance Agency believes consumers should be educated on their purchasing decisions. You're not buying insurance because you need to. You're buying it because you want to be protected in case anything bad happens.
Let the Smith Insurance Agency Help You Avoid the Terrifying Consequences of Auto Lawsuits. If you're like us, then you probably don't worry about auto lawsuits when you're driving down the road. But the reality is that all the people who have been sued never thought it would happen to them. What if you were at fault in an accident and caused $25,000 of damage to another person's car, and your car insurance policy only covered you for $10,000 worth of damage.This would mean you would be obligated to pay the additional $15,000 out of your own pocket.
If someone is injured on your boat - and you're at fault - you'll be financially responsible for any claim that is made. This could leave you with a huge financial burden to fulfill. If you regularly use your boat on a crowded lake, bay, or canal, you could be at risk. You'll want to protect yourself against irresponsible boaters that could injure you and your passengers.

We have now been with the Smith Agency for over 50 years. Through all three generations of this family run business we have always found them pleasant, very competent and always quick to respond. In an era of getting insurance through web sites or 800 numbers, the staff at Smith's set the benchmark for the value added of a good agent! Bob and Fay Haslett

I just called the agency, because I'm looking for health insurance myself. Julie picked up and she was as sweet as honey! Just that alone will be given at least 3 stars. Once I get to talk more with them, I'll update my review. UPDATE: I just spoke with Mr. Ian Smith. He was super kind and sweet. Unfortunately, they don't provide individual health insurance, but he will be having another agency get in touch with me soon. Even though I couldn't go through Mr. Smith's agency with my needs, I still give them a 5 star for kindness and helpfulness in what they could do.

Been policy owners for 30 years! My wife totalled her Grand Cherokee at the end of December. Fortunately, not injured. Service rep Christine took ownership of our claim and kept us aware of process till it was paid. Ian Smith quickly and thoroughly responded to my questions. First class!

I was sent to Ian from a friend who had nothing but positive comments. As I finalized my first house, I met with Ian and his company to get rates. The experience was great. Easy, efficient, and worry free. Telling members of my family the coverage and rates we were able to get, in the swift amount of time that we did, it is safe to say they will be visiting the Gerard P. Smith Insurance Agency.just after they help me move. Thank you again to Ian and his friendly and knowledgable staff.

Very poor customer service! Tom was rude, and uninformative. Made it clear they had so much business they really didn't need mine. Most people would agree trying to get competitive insurance quotes isn't much fun to begin with, but they actually made it even more time consuming and irritating than other companies. If an agent can't listen to his customers at the beginning, then good luck when you really need them. Tom repeated himself, and wasted my time, very slow. Had enough of them, called another agent right here in Webster, and got much better service. Sincerely suggest you try another insurance agency, there's plenty of them!

I've been a client of the Gerard P. Smith Insurance Agency for over a year and a half. I saved over 40% by switching--and I've got a better policy!. Ian, my agent, took the time to review my current policy, identify my changing concerns and shop for the best new policy! I'm so happy I found the Gerard P. Smith Agency & Ian Smith!

Smith Insurance has been our business insurance company for the last 3 years. We've had great service, and the premiums have been lower than the last agency we had. We just switched our personal auto and home owners insurance over to them. We now have much more coverage for a lot less money. Thanks Ian and Tom!
