“I’ve had my insurance with Derek and Owen for over 15 years. They provide competitive rates and excellent customer service. They are always available to assist, even after hours. I’ve called their cell on a Saturday morning when I had questions and needed help with a claim. They walked me through the whole process and made me feel very at ease. I would recommend their services to anyone!”

“I have been with Dorchester Insurance Brokers since my first car and first home years ago and they have always been helpful. It’s great to tell Derek what I need and he figures out what works best for my situation. I wouldn’t think of looking elsewhere.”
