"I have dealt with Rachel Fischer over the past two years for my car and home insurance and she is amazing help. She is very reliable, responsive, caring, honest and helpful. All qualities I would expect from a Broker that they have our best interests in mind when it comes to insurance requests."
Giuseppe M., Ottawa ON
"I have worked with Trish Watson for the past 12 and a half years that I have worked as a Condominium Manager at PMA Realty Consulting Ltd. Trish has not only always been professional to deal with, but has gone that extra mile more times than I can count, or can thank her for. Anytime, one of my Corporations needed anything, including early renewal quotes, clarification on wording or understanding their policy, amongst other items, Trish provided this information immediately and without delay. Trish is extremely knowledgeable in her field, wonderfully pleasant, and a huge asset to all of my Corporations that have her as their insurance broker."
Christine, PMA Realty Consulting Ltd.

They work hard to find us the right coverage at the best rates. They spend the time to understand our company and our needs, and they're always there when we need them. Just sayin'."

"I have been a client of Gifford Carr for many years now. I have experienced the most professional and exceptional service from Karen Benell and the team. I have purchased a range of insurance products, from personal to commercial insurance. I have submitted claims on all unfortunately, but the service I received from each incident was bar none. Me and my family were taken care of each and every time with the most professional and caring service. Karen will go to market and get me the best price out there for the best coverage each time. I have my utmost faith in Gifford Carr and I am very fortunate to be working with them. I sleep well at night knowing that I have the proper coverage if disaster ever struck."
Mohamad, Barakat Market
“Gifford Carr has always treated us fairly and professionally. Most recently, they were very helpful when we began the process of looking for a second car. They advised us at every stage, from the types of cars and approximate insurance rates for each, to the most suitable coverage for our family. Our broker dealt with the numerous emails and phone calls with great patience, and helped make the entire process a smooth one.”

Thank you for the great service!”
