Ethan does a great job. I called him based on a vendors referral, and he worked very fast to get my business a general liability and commercial auto quote. The coverage met my needs and the price less than we were expecting. His attention to detail and ability to listen to our specific needs, allowed him to find the right policy for our business with more coverage at less premium! Very impressed, cannot recommend highly enough.read more

I enjoyed working with Ethan from EK Insurance. I was in a tight spot and needed commercial insurance for my business in a very timely manner to get a job. I doubted it could be done fast enough, but he had certificate of insurance in my with time to spare for me to get all my contract! This deal was worth a lot of revenue to my company and I could not have got it without Ethan’s help. Since then Ethan has been available when I need advice and explaining anything I need or answering any questions as my business insurance needs grow. Thanks Ethan!read more

Ethan couldn't even make a quote and said : "Im sorry I don’t know how to quote". This is an awful service and I am really disappointed in this company ! My project is in development and I have to plan my expenses so this quote would have been useful and chosen the next year during the development of the project. Ethan wasn't understanding at all and kept insisting about how he couldn't help me. Maybe a phone call would have been better, no ? No patience at all.read more

Their site clearly states they offer insurance for the type of coverage that I need; however when I called I was told they cant insure me. I was given a phone number to someone who supposedly could and after that person transferring me 7 different times I gave up. Quite frank, it is false advertisement to say you offer a certain type of insurance on your site, to only call and be told I cant be insured. Terrible business practice and shocked they havent been sued.read more
