Doug started his insurance career in 1982 knowing that his passion for entrepreneurship would provide him with an opportunity to make a difference in the industry. For many years, Doug volunteered on the Executive Board for the Insurance Brokers Association of Ontario (IBAO), serving as President of this Provincial association in 2016.
If you live in Ontario and own a car, you know that auto insurance is mandated by the government. But. this doesn't take away the complexity of auto insurance! Do you know what limits of coverage you need to have and your options to increase these limits?. If you're in an accident and the other driver sues you, do you know how your insurer will respond?.
Our licensed brokers are here to help you protect your classic car. We understand that you have special considerations and decisions you need to make when it comes to your classic car insurance. That's why we work with some of Canada's best insurance companies who specialize in coverages for classic cars.
Whether you're someone who hits the open road or has found that special spot where you can "put down roots", you want to know your RV is properly protected. Surprises aren't fun when it comes to claims that aren't covered. Let's work together to make sure you know your options and coverages.
When looking at RV insurance quotes you have to consider vehicle coverage, like liability and collision, but also coverage for your personal items (theft or damage).It's like an auto and home policy rolled into one. Then there are additional considerations unique for RV owners. Do you put your RV into storage?

I have been working with the advocate team for well over 20 years. They are always responsive and accommodating to any request or need. The great service from Lisa prompted me to write this review. As an advocate of their customers ,Lisa professionally worked through an issue , ensuring it got rectified with the insurance company. That level of service will keep our family with them for another 20 years

I worked with Kelly to have my Forest and Nature School insured. I wasn't sure what to expect because of the alternative nature of our programs. Kelly knew exactly what I needed and walked me through the entire process. If I had a question or a concern about the details of my policy's coverage, she took the time to explain everything to me in a way that made me feel comfortable and confident. I can't recommend Kelly from Advocate Insurance Group enough, and I look forward to working with her again in the future!

I have always received excellent service from Advocate, and my most recent experience was no exception. My vehicle was damaged while parked outside a house in Fort Myers, Florida. My insurance company withheld the deductible pending reimbursement from the US insurance company of the at fault driver. Four months, later, with no reimbursement in sight, Linda Bradley, my advocate, convinced the insurance company to give me the $1000 in advance of their receipt as a gesture of goodwill. Advocate always does the right thing, even when it seems impossible! Thanks, Linda and Advocate!

Advocate has been a blessing for us. Kelly, Andy and all the staff we have dealt with have all been very knowledgeable, friendly, professional, and very efficient. They have helped in so many ways if you are in search for insurance you definitely will not regret switching to them. I recommend to anyone.

I've been going back and forth with Lisa regarding home and auto insurance for quite some time now, as I have endless questions and concerns. Not once has she shown impatience. She's quick to respond, pleasant, professional, and detailed. She helps me figure out what the best coverage options are for me, at the best price. I highly recommend Advocate Insurance Group.

On October 31st 2020 my car, in which I was a passenger was rear ended at a stop light. I did notify Advocate immediately and they set up both property and medical claims. However, after hearing nothing useful from my insurance company for 5 days, I phoned Advocate and got a response from a supervisor of my insurance company within the hour.

I’ve been working with advocate insurance(the Heaman family) for almost 30 years now. I must say they have honestly never disappointed me, in fact, they go above and beyond my expectations. Unfortunately I have had a few claims over my years and Linda Bradley has been a real pleasure to work with during these times.
I hear people complaining regularly about their insurance broker and how difficult it is to process a claim. I always question why they are not working with Advocate???

Advocate Insurance Group has been amazing in meeting all our needs throughout the 18 yrs. we were with them in Kitchener, and now greatly assisted us in insuring our new home build with coverage for labourers… and contractors in Bloomfield, Ont. Ellen was a great help in making sure everything went flawlessly. No matter who I have dealt with over the years, each representative has been very knowledgeable and courteous, and easily available.
