Auto Insurance FAQs

What auto insurance is required in California?
California requires minimum liability of 15/30/5 – $15,000 per person, $30,000 per accident for injury, and $5,000 for property damage. We usually recommend higher limits to protect your assets.
How much does car insurance cost in San Diego?
Rates depend on your driving record, vehicle, mileage, and coverage limits. As an independent brokerage we shop multiple carriers to find you the most competitive premium.
Do you offer SR-22 filings?
Yes – if you need an SR-22 to reinstate your license, we can place coverage and file it for you.
Can I add a teen driver?
Yes. Adding a young driver raises premiums, but we compare carriers and available discounts (good student, driver training) to keep it affordable.
Should I bundle auto with home or renters?
Usually yes – bundling typically earns a multi-policy discount and simplifies billing. We will quote it both ways.
