What our clients say

Liam Brown​

“We were having our first child and buying our first home at the same time, and Douglas walked us through a detailed understanding of our options for life and home insurance that felt like we were getting advice from a trusted source, like a conversation between friends without bias or judgement. It keeps us coming back as our needs change!”

Randy

“We are very pleased! Douglas provides a professional and responsible liaison with his annual reviews. The hands-on is EXCELLENT, which is generally not experienced in the industry. As face-to-face is a part of our business, we appreciate it when we get it from you. The great rates are just an added bonus!”

John Frankovich

“I have been a Mumby Insurance client since 1982, receiving coverage for my life insurance, home and cars insurance over all these years. The service received has always been GREAT. The only time I had a bit of an issue it was addressed quickly and to my satisfaction. It has been a good long lasting relationship. Thank you.”

Jim and May Strasman

“We have received great service from Mumby over the DECADES, including office visits from Douglas at least once a year. Douglas continues to support and protect us by reviewing our coverages, ensuring they are adequate and appropriate, and has reviewed other policies to ensure they are structured properly and are protecting us adequately. “Douglas continually provides an explanation of the coverages that are easy for us to understand. We find his presentations to our employees are valuable as well. As we have placed our trust in Mumby Insurance over the decades it’s easy for us to say that we are pleased with the service we receive.”
