Family business feel
Nelson Insurance Agency has that family business feel that you don't get from big insurance companies. They genuinely care about finding you the right coverage.

Does the job
Nelson Insurance Agency helped me find auto insurance after I moved to Sydney. Decent rates and good coverage. Not the most high-tech office but they get results.

Slow and unresponsive
Nelson Insurance Agency was very slow in processing my business insurance application. Emails went unanswered for days. Eventually I went with another broker.

Exceptional claims handling
When I had a water damage claim, Nelson Insurance Agency handled everything quickly and professionally. The claim was settled faster than I expected.

Renewal was painless
Just went through my annual renewal with Nelson Insurance Agency. They proactively reviewed my home insurance and found me a better rate without me even asking.

Poor communication
My biggest issue with Nelson Insurance Agency was the lack of communication. I had to call multiple times to get updates on my home insurance policy. Frustrating.
