Auto Insurance in Hickory, NC

Being in an auto accident is traumatic, but you will find comfort having Romeo Heatherly Insurance Services in the passenger seat. We’re there for you when you need us, and we will help keep the claim process running smoothly, so you can get back on the road.

Staying Legal

North Carolina law requires all vehicles with a valid North Carolina registration to have continuous car insurance that is provided by an insurance company licensed to do business in the state. The law also requires coverage for the following: minimum bodily injury property damage limits, and uninsured or underinsured motorists.

The bare financial coverage is as follows:

Bodily Injury (one person) - $30,000
Bodily Injury (two or more people) - $60,000
Property Damage - $25,000

North Carolina strictly enforces their insurance laws, and your insurance company is required to notify the state if insurance has been canceled or if coverage lapses. If you’re caught driving without insurance, the penalties and fees can be extremely costly.

One of the biggest advantages of working with an independent insurance broker, such as Romeo Heatherly Insurance, is that we work with multiple insurance companies and will shop around until we find the perfect carrier and coverage for you.

If you’re buying auto insurance for the first time, or you’re curious to see if you have enough coverage to meet the needs of your lifestyle, we’d love to help you understand the various types of coverage that are available and how certain things, such as deductible options, can affect your overall premium.

Accident-Free Discounts – Some insurance companies will offer a discount to those drivers who have not had a single accident on their record.

Good Student Discounts – Young adults generally have higher insurance rates than people over the age of 25. Some auto insurance companies will extend a discount to students who have a good grade point average.

Military & Veterans – A handful of insurance companies will offer a discount to military members and veterans. Be sure to let your insurance broker know that you are current or ex-military when you provide them with your personal information.

Do I need full coverage or just liability if I bought a new car?

If you leased or financed your car, there is an excellent chance that you need full coverage auto insurance.

If an uninsured motorist hits your car and you don’t have uninsured motorist insurance, you’re the one who will pay the repair and/or medical bills.
