Our manufacturing facility has worked with Mike Prentiss for a number of years. Before we started doing buiness, our instance package was not up to par and needed help. Mike jumped in and needed help Mike jumped in and fine-tuned our coverage. His sense of urgency and knowledge of the insurance industry, particularly in the manufacturing area, are second to none. We could not be happier with the service, value and comfort knowing that we are in good hands.
