If you are looking for an insurance agency you can trust, look no further than Hettler Insurance. Meghan and the team are refreshingly professional and easy to work with. I was with my previous insurance agency for two... years, but they were no match for Meghan at Hettler. She was able to find the same policy/coverage with a significantly lower premium (with the potential for even more savings after 90 days). Every one of the staff is courteous, attentive, and helpful. Thanks Meghan and everyone at Hettler!read more

A friend recommended Hettler Insurance Agency for my family’s health insurance last year. As new immigrants, we got totally lost with what we can choose and how. Mr. Hettler has been so patient to us with full... explanation of the policies and all the guidance we need. We are very thankful to him with the insurance package we get. This is the company where the staff are very friendly and they always know what the customers need.read more

Ron Hettler and his staff are the best. I have used Ron for personal and business insurance for 20+ years, with no regrets. Recently he helped me sign up for Medicare supplemental insurance. We spent a good hour going... over the endless inane paperwork, even though I know his compensation for this is next to nothing. Good people, good insurance.read more

"WHAT DO I DO RIGHT NOW?" — the question every Texas driver asks about 30 seconds after a fender-bender, when they should have known the answer months earlier. Filing an auto insurance claim isn't complicated once you know the sequence. Ron Hettler, CIC (Certified Insurance Counselor) walks through the EXACT step-by-step process:🚗 STEP 1 — CHECK FOR INJURIES AND MOVE TO SAFETYBefore ANYTHING else, confirm everyone is okay. Call 911 for injuries. Move vehicles out of traffic if it's safe.🚔 STEP 2 — CALL THE POLICEA police report is a core piece of the claims paper trail. If officers can't respond to a minor collision, many jurisdictions let you file the report online, by mail, or in person at the local station.📸 STEP 3 — GATHER INFORMATION AT THE SCENE• Other driver's name, phone, license plate, driver's license number, insurance policy details• Photos of all vehicle damage from multiple angles• Road and weather conditions• Direction each vehicle was traveling• Witnesses' names and phone numbers📞 STEP 4 — CONTACT YOUR INSURER AS SOON AS POSSIBLECall from the scene if you can. It does NOT matter who caused the accident. Even minor collisions can produce expensive hidden damage on newer vehicles with sensors and cameras for automatic emergency braking systems.📱 STEP 5 — FILE THROUGH YOUR PREFERRED CHANNELHotline, mobile app, or online portal. Many insurers now encourage or require photo submission via app to speed damage assessment. Some apps even let you visually recreate the accident with diagrams.📄 STEP 6 — SUBMIT REQUIRED DOCUMENTATIONAsk specifically what documents are needed and the deadlines. Proof-of-claim form. Police report copy if available.👤 STEP 7 — COOPERATE WITH THE ASSIGNED ADJUSTERRespond quickly and completely.💰 STEP 8 — REVIEW THE SETTLEMENT OFFER AND AUTHORIZE REPAIRSIf the offer seems low, you have the RIGHT to ask for a written explanation and get your own repair estimate.🚨 WHAT COVERAGE ACTUALLY PAYS FOR WHAT?• COLLISION — Damage to YOUR vehicle from a crash, regardless of fault, after deductible• COMPREHENSIVE — Non-collision events: theft, vandalism, hail, flooding, fire• LIABILITY — Damage/injuries YOU cause to others. Does NOT cover your own vehicle• UNINSURED/UNDERINSURED MOTORIST — When the at-fault driver has no insurance or not enough• MEDPAY / PIP — Medical expenses for you and passengers, regardless of fault⚠️ THE DEDUCTIBLE MATH — SHOULD YOU EVEN FILE?If your deductible is $1,000 and the repair estimate is $1,200, filing nets you only $200 — before considering that claims appear on your CLUE report and can raise future premiums. Get an INDEPENDENT repair estimate before filing for minor damage.🚗 RENTAL CAR COVERAGE IS NOT AUTOMATICIt must be explicitly listed in your policy and typically applies only while your vehicle is being repaired. Confirm the daily limit and maximum rental period BEFORE you book anything. Activate it promptly after filing — it doesn't start until you ask.👤 HOW TO WORK EFFECTIVELY WITH YOUR ADJUSTER• VERIFY THE ADJUSTER'S IDENTITY — Fraud spikes after natural disasters. Ask your insurer the name of the person they're sending. Request ID on arrival.• BE PRESENT DURING THE INSPECTION — Walk them around the vehicle yourself so no damage gets missed• PROVIDE FACTS, NOT GUESSES — Do NOT speculate about fault, speed, or what the other driver was doing. Stick to what you directly observed.• DOCUMENT EVERY INTERACTION — Correspond by EMAIL when possible. Take notes after phone calls (date, name, what was discussed)• KEEP COPIES OF EVERYTHING you submit. If the adjuster is replaced mid-claim, your paper trail proves what was already agreed.💡 PRO TIP FROM RON"Download your insurer's mobile app BEFORE an accident happens and sign in so it's already connected to your policy. When you need it, you will not be fumbling with account setup at the side of the road."🚨 WATER DAMAGE FROM FLOODINGFrequently results in TOTAL LOSS, even when the vehicle appears drivable at first. Corrosion in wiring and mold in upholstery develop over time. Do NOT assume a flooded car is repairable until a qualified shop has fully inspected it.🏆 HOW HETTLER HANDLES AUTO CLAIMS30+ carriers = real comparison shopping. We help you verify collision, comprehensive, uninsured motorist, and rental coverage BEFORE an accident, walk you through the claim step-by-step when one happens, and make sure you're not caught off guard by a low settlement or a coverage gap.Read the full auto insurance claim guide: hettlerinsurance.com/2026/09/18/how-to-file-an-auto-insurance-claim/📞 (806) 798-7800📍 4720 S Loop 289, Lubbock, TX 79414 #AutoInsurance #TexasDrivers #Lubbock #WestTexas #HettlerInsurance #CIC #ClaimsHelp #GetHettler 🚗 ...
