Thinking of Others

This year the staff members at J.M. Doherty Insurance are asking for your help this winter. New England winters can be cold and snowy. That is why we are seeking donations of gently used winter clothing; Coats, Hats, Mittens and Gloves, Scarves, Neck Warmers, Blankets. Just about anything someone can use to stay warm.  (Snuggies are nice too)

You can contact us via www.jmdins.com  We are accepting donations at our office located at 306 Mt. Pleasant Street in New Bedford. (near Building 19 & Ashley Ford)
The weather can turn quickly around here. The items collected will be combined with the collection efforts of Coastline Elderly Services.


Let's end 2010 by showing how generous we are here in the New Bedford area.  So many families have been hit by severe economic difficulties. They might be forced to go without proper winter clothing for their children and possibly themselves. 

Please look through your closets, attic, storage locker. Dig out a couple of items that you haven't used in a while. You won't miss it, and you'll be doing something good for your community.
We here at J.M. Doherty Insurance are part of the solution. Help us help others. Thank you!!

Massachusetts Auto Insurance, Like a sleeping dog?

Can you picture it? It's late at night. You're driving home from dropping off a friend after the big event and "BANG" you hit a pedestrian walking down the side of the road. Yes, it's been raining so you couldn't see very well. "I didn't even see the guy. He was wearing dark clothes", you tell the officer.

Just like tripping over a dog in the dark, you don't know how bad the bite will be after a serious accident. If it's a small dog, no problem. But once in a while we see a claim that will take a while for the "pain" to go away. Your Massachusetts Auto Insurance policy is your first line of defense after an auto accident.

At J.M Doherty Insurance we have had that call. www.jmdins.com Are your coverage limits LOW? When was the last time you read your policy?

A new one comes in every year in that big white envelope. www.jmdins.com

The last time you did read your Massachusetts auto insurance policy, did you see the numbers $20/$40 anywhere other than line one, Bodily Injury to Others?

We can explain the difference between Bodily Injury to Others (part 1) and Optional Bodily Injury to Others (part 5). We know the coverage here.

A Massachusetts Auto Insurance policy with low limits of liability doesn't provide much protection. If you have assets to protect, contact us today at www.jmdins.com before that dog wakes up!!

Thank you.
