But I don't know anything about car insurance

When choosing proper insurance coverage for your vehicles, there is no best way to insure your cars. Your needs are not the same as everyone else's.

These are some specific questions might point out if your situation might need an agent's assistance.

  • Does my policy cover me when driving someone else's vehicle?
  • Am I covered when driving in Canada or Mexico?
  • Are there companies who specialize in insuring high-risk drivers?
  • Should I have combined single limit or split liability limits?
  • Should I buy only the required Nebraska minimum liability coverage?
  • Can I still get insurance after a DUI?
  • Why am I required to get a high-risk car insurance policy?

If you don't know the answers to these questions but one or more may apply to you, you might consider talking to a licensed insurance agent. If you don't have a local agent, take a second and complete this form.
