Homeowners insurance and renters insurance policies differ by which losses are covered, which coverage you choose, and what type of residence you own. You choose which policy is best for you from a basic form to special form and even all-risk coverage. Other structure coverage is for sheds, detached garages, fences or other structures on the property which are not attached to the house.
Business insurance provides protection in the event of liability arising from business activity on the premises, completed operations, product liability and advertising injury. A business insurance policy that packages property and liability coverage as well as several options for a much lower price than when purchased separately. This is reserved for businesses with an insurance history and limited exposure.

I first spoke with Lauren Akins at Jenkins & James upon relocating to Kansas City. I sought to purchase renter's insurance and to update my auto policy to reflect my new address on the Missouri side. My previous agent served the Kansas area, so their office referred me to Lauren when I notified them of the change. Lauren helped me bundle a new auto policy with renter's coverage for a discount, and even took extra steps to help me avoid a more expensive, less desirable renter's policy I had previously purchased.
She generated rate quotes for me within a few hours of our initial conversation. I've only been with Jenkins & James a few weeks, and I've already had more and better interactions with Lauren than I ever had in over a decade with my previous agent. If you're in the KCMO area and you're looking for a better insurance experience, you can trust these folks to make an honest effort on your behalf. I'm more confident of my insurance situation since making the switch.

I have Barry and his staff handle insurance for both my businesses. They also cover several of my personal insurance needs as well. They have always been very receptive and responsive to all my and the business needs. They have bent over backwards to help me with claims I have had to file. I recommend to all my friends and family. Its nice to walk in and sit down and have a real conversation about your needs.
