COVID-19
Together, we are experiencing unprecedented changes in our communities and workplaces due to the developments of Coronavirus (COVID-19). As your agent, we strive to stay up to date on exposures that affect our clients. We have taken precautions to keep our staff safe, such as working remotely, adding hand sanitizer stations, and practicing social distancing. We are not scheduling face to face appointments at this time, but are available by phone, email, and video conferencing. We remain committed to answering your questions and providing valuable insurance solutions for your business and family as we work remote. Please be patient with us as there may be children or pets in the background when speaking to a TGA agent. Here are some resources that might be useful as we navigate the impacts of this pandemic together.
