California insurance commissioner provides assistance for consumers | Lafayette | Moraga

The California Department of Insurance released two new features to its website to better serve its customers, including Lamorinda residents. According to Orinda City Manager David Biggs, who highlighted the new services in a recent Orinda Outlook, the Home/Residential Insurance Shop Around Webpage showcases insurance companies currently offering discounts for home hardening.

Under "consumer resources," you can find out if you own a home in an area under the mandatory one-year moratorium, along with historical information about the moratoriums. (At this time, there are no moratoriums affecting Lamorinda.) The Insurance commissioner's website also includes information about many different kinds of insurance, from homeowner/residential to automobile to medical and workers' compensation. The current insurance commissioner, Ricardo Lara, is California's eighth insurance commissioner since Californians voted to create the elected position in 1988.
