When the day finally arrives for a person to take the plunge and purchase a new car after years of driving the same vehicle, they will find that much has changed. These changes aren’t just confined to things like engines, fuel economy and interior features, however, but also safety.
Back in May, our blog discussed how officials here in Florida had commissioned a $125,000 study to examine the economic impact, if any, of repealing the state’s embattled Personal Injury Protection System, a move that came about after efforts by lawmakers to reform the state’s no-fault insurance system and, by extension, curb rising auto insurance premiums, failed to produce the desired results.
When a person follows up the important decision to rent an apartment, condominium or home with an appointment with an insurance agent to discuss procuring renters insurance, they are to be commended for both their foresight and their vigilance.
In just a few weeks, parents across the state of Florida will find themselves hit by a whirlwind of conflicting emotions as they drop their children off for the start of their freshman year of college. Indeed, they might feel everything from great pride for their child’s achievement and sadness at them leaving home to anxiety about the future and excitement about finally having an empty nest.
As a small business owner, you do everything in your power to ensure not just that your operations thrive, but that they are protected in the event of the unforeseeable.

In a previous post, we discussed how budding entrepreneurs will be confronted with the need to make a host of important decisions prior to the commencement of operations, decisions that will have a profound impact on their long-term success.
Last week, our blog reported on how recent reform efforts by the Florida Legislature targeting fraud present in the state’s no-fault insurance system and, by extension, rising auto insurance premiums have largely failed. Indeed, we discussed how reports have found that Personal Injury Protection rates have increased considerably since January 2015, while the Office of Insurance Regulation determined that Florida drivers now pay some of the highest auto insurance premiums in the nation.
In our last post, we started discussing how a local television station recently conducted an experiment in which it sought online auto insurance quotes from two large insurance companies for two imaginary men, whose information was identical save for their occupations. Indeed, one was a surgeon and the other was a custodian.
Every six months, most of us are faced with the loathsome task of either logging into our bank accounts or retrieving our checkbooks so that we can cover the cost of our auto insurance premium. Indeed, part of this loathing comes from the fact that this is seldom a cheap proposition here in Florida, something we discussed in our previous post.
