Dana at Richards & Summers has handled both my personal and professional insurance policies for a number of years now, and consistently goes above and beyond to help her customers in any way possible. I have referred her a number of times and everyone has been very pleased. Give her a call for a no obligation quote on your insurance - she’ll shop around to get you the best coverage for the best price.

Working with Dana and the Richards & Summers team was an absolute pleasure. She shopped our homeowners policy and increases our coverage and cut the premium almost in half. It took little effort on our part so youve got nothing to lose to let them give you a quote. Highly recommend Richards & Summers!

Excellent experience! Dana was able to save me over $200 a year on my condo insurance with a better policy! I was able to switch easily with just a few calls and emails. I highly recommend working with Dana if you are looking to save money and ensure that you have the right coverage!!!
