What You Need to Know About Insuring an Electric Car – P.J. Miller Interviewed by CarInsurance.com
P.J. Miller
If you’re considering purchasing an electric vehicle (EV) to save at the gas pump or to reduce your carbon footprint, know that getting car insurance for an EV is similar to shopping for insurance like any other vehicle. In an interview with CarInsurance.com, Partner P.J. Miller said he hasn't noticed a major rate disparity between premiums for EVs/hybrids versus gas-powered autos.
“Car insurance rates are predicated on so many factors – credit scores, location of the garage and the vehicle, driving record and price of the car. The engine and powertrain haven't factored in as a major portion of the typical rate-making process.”

A Compelling Case for Life Insurance: The Right Investment Every Time
Finding Affordable Car Insurance in Ohio – P.J. Miller Interviewed by MoneyGeek
P.J. Miller
In an interview with Moneygeek.com, Partner P.J. Miller discussed the key factors Ohio drivers should look for when searching for the best auto insurance coverage.
P.J. cautioned that while drivers may be tempted to go with the cheapest coverage option, they should make sure they’re working with a reputable carrier and the coverage is providing them with enough protection in the instance of an accident or other loss. “You may be saving now, but if you cause an accident that results in costs exceeding your coverage limit, you'll be coming out of pocket to pay -- and your assets such as your home or other investments could be at risk,” he said.
P.J. also advised drivers to consider talking with an independent insurance agent because they can identify discounts and credits that may be available.

Inflation Could Make Your Homeowner's Insurance Inadequate – P.J. Miller Discusses the Important of a Replacement Cost Guarantee with Consumer Affairs
P.J. Miller
If you haven’t checked your homeowner’s insurance policy in a while, it may be wise to do so. Inflation is rapidly increasing building costs and if your house is damaged or destroyed, having inadequate coverage might result in a significant loss. In an interview with Consumer Affairs, Partner P.J. Miller explained how having a “replacement cost guarantee” provision can cover the cost to repair or replace your home, even if the amount exceeds your coverage.
P.J. said the forerunner of the current day “guaranteed replacement cost” was the “inflation guard endorsement and while it’s not known if all carriers provided this option, most did for various reasons. “An example would be the simple fact that you don’t have to remember to contact your carrier to increase coverage and the peace of mind knowing that it’s done automatically.”
He also noted that it’s important to understand how your policy’s inflation adjustment works. Some policies might increase the coverage only for the policy term and then reset it to the prior term’s coverage amount.
