J. Edward Knight Insurance welcomes Kristy Cromwell to its Boothbay Harbor team. Newly licensed in personal lines insurance, she brings nearly two decades of administrative and client-care experience across midcoast Maine.
Because we answer to you rather than to one insurer, we can place your coverage across a deep bench of well-established national and regional carriers — then bring you the offer that genuinely fits.
Our advisors have spent their careers inside this industry. They translate the fine print, point out the gaps others miss, and stay in your corner from the first quote through the final claim.
We look after policyholders the way we’d look after our own families. Call, email or stop in and you reach someone who already knows your account and what’s riding on it.
We are not content with the way it has always been done. We keep testing better tools and clearer explanations so the people who rely on us stay informed and well protected.
We work as one team toward shared goals. What one advisor learns, the whole agency learns — so your file benefits from every bit of experience in the building.
Real relationships sit at the heart of this business. We are after long partnerships and genuine friendships, not a signature and a file that gets closed.
We hold ourselves to the highest professional standard, because the trust this agency has spent decades earning is the one thing we can never replace.
Our experience and dedication, coupled with strong relationships with the companies we represent, let us offer a range of products that are well-understood and can be customized to your specific needs while remaining cost-effective.
