Is Universal Automotive Insurance One Of The Inexpensive Car Insurance Companies?

That is the question that was posed to me the other day by a friendly neighbor. Knowing that I have a background in automotive insurance information, it certainly makes sense that he would ask me. What was surprising is that he thought the company was one of the most popular and well known companies around...and I had never come across it before. So, of course, I set to looking it up.

As it turns out, Universal Automotive Insurance is common name for car insurance companies across the United States, and probably in other countries as well. The name is attractive, and also shows up as Universal Auto and Universal Insurance, and other similar variations. There is most likely at least two or three companies sharing the same name in nearly every state. It obviously has not been copyrighted.

So to answer my neighbor's question accurately actually becomes very difficult. Some Universal Automotives might be one of the inexpensive car insurance companies. But others may be far from it. With any of these small companies, it takes a little bit of dedicated legwork to learn whether or not the policies they offer will work for you. They usually do not have their own website. If they do, it contains minimal information. That means you have to actually call them, speak to a representative, and have them give you a quote for your car and driving circumstances. But to be honest, as I like to be, the legwork is often well worth your efforts.

When choosing a car insurance provider, it's so important to the the research up front so that you make sure that you have chosen a company you'll be happy with long term. While we all hope that we'll never have to file a claim, it's good to know that if you ever do have to, you'll be dealing with a company that will treat you well.
