Steve is an awesome insurance broker! He took the time to clearly explain all the different life insurance options — including trauma and income protection — and how they work together. He really knows his stuff and makes everything easy to understand. I also appreciated that he made sure the plan suited both our needs and budget. He’s very organised too — always on time for meetings and great with reminders. Highly recommend!

Insurance Market FAQs

What types of insurance can Steve help with?

Steve can help with a range of personal insurance options, including life insurance, income protection, health insurance, trauma cover, total permanent disablement cover, mortgage protection, redundancy cover and waiver of premium cover. He can also work with referral partners for business insurance, home, contents and car insurance needs.

Why should I use an insurance adviser instead of going directly to an insurer?

An insurance adviser helps you understand your options and choose cover that suits your situation, rather than simply buying a policy off the shelf. Steve takes the time to learn about your family, income, mortgage, lifestyle and long-term goals so your insurance plan is built around what you actually need.

Can Steve help if I already have insurance?

Yes. Steve can review your existing insurance to check whether it still suits your current circumstances. This can be especially useful if your income, mortgage, family situation, health needs or business responsibilities have changed since you first took out cover.

What is income protection insurance?

Income protection insurance is designed to help replace part of your income if you are unable to work due to illness or injury. For many people, their income is one of their most important financial assets, so having the right protection in place can help reduce stress and financial pressure during a difficult time.

Does Steve help with claims?

Yes. Steve can be your first point of contact at claims time and help guide you through the process. Having an adviser involved can make the experience feel less overwhelming, especially when you are already dealing with a stressful situation.

Who is Insurance Market suitable for?

Insurance Market is suitable for individuals, families, homeowners, business owners and anyone who wants clear, tailored advice about protecting their financial future. Whether you are taking out insurance for the first time or reviewing existing cover, Steve can help you understand your options and put a practical plan in place.
