Esurance is an Allstate product, packaged in what is intended to be hip, new packaging. Their motto is "Insurance for the Modern World." We're not sure what that means -- it looks like the same services, the same ability to buy online, and same types of settlement offers. But these folks sure do know how to market. They have a jazzy cartoon avatar with purple hair, though, so that's something. It is, however, technically separate from Allstate. They are ranked as the 41st private automobile insurance company with a market share of 0.32% and $11,989,891 in premiums (see the Maryland Report here). Esurance also offers commercial auto policies, property insurance, health and life insurance.
Esurance's Operating Territory
Esurance has 2,000 employees in 15 offices nationwide. The closest offices to us are Maryland. D.C., Virginia and Pennsylvania, so they have a strong east coast presence. However, it is only licensed to provide automobile insurance in 34 states: Maryland, Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Oklahoma, Oregon, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas, Tennessee, Utah, Virginia, Washington and Wisconsin.
Settlement Of Esurance Accident ClaimsWe are just now beginning to see more and more Esurance policies. In general, everything that we have said before about Allstate (not so good hands) is true of Esurance. In our opinion (some lawyers differ), it is not the worst insurance company for resolving claims, but it doesn't win any gold medals for fairness, either. Like Allstate, Esurance uses Colossus to help them value (read: undervalue) traffic collision injury claims. Like any insurance company, we give it a reasonable effort to settle Esurances case. If those efforts appear to be wasted, we turn the case around and quickly file a lawsuit. Once a lawsuit is filed, a defense attorney will enter his/her appearance, and will typically bring a fresh set of eyes to the case. Sometimes they can make their insurance overseers see reason and make settlement more of a possibility.
