For almost a year, Moore-McLean Corporate Insurance, Ltd. has been providing exceptional customer care to all Children's Mental Health Ontario's (CMHO) member centres.

Moore-McLean's commitment to ensuring that all participating member centres' needs are met is among the many reasons why CMHO is satisfied with this exemplary service.

Moore-McLean recognizes the unique nature of the not-for-profit sector. Gerry Olsthoorn, in particular, applies his experiences with non-profit organizations in order to better meet the needs of our agencies and has established positive rapports with many of them. Gerry's friendly and personable manner is truly a draw for our agencies.

Further, Gerry's - and Moore-McLean's - commitment to growing the CMHO group insurance program is self-evident. Moore-McLean readily understands that by growing the plan, savings can be had by all participating centres. Cost savings are particularly important, especially given the financial difficulties currently faced by many providers of children's mental health treatment and prevention services.

Coverages provided by Moore-McLean are comprehensive and suit our agencies.

Moore-McLean is an exceptional member benefit for all our agencies.

I have been doing business with Dale & Morrow Insurance for the past 15 years. Throughout that time, they have proved to be an excellent partner in providing my company with insurance solutions.  Today, my company is well known as a leading provider of security services for special events and concert venues in the GTA, Canada and Internationally. It was not until recently that I required expertise outside of what I normally receive from my insurance broker.  

Many of my larger, more influential clients recently began to make it a condition of my contract for me to sign their 'Hold Harmless' agreements, essentially designating me as the responsible part for virtually all liability imposed on me during any security event for which I was contract to provide services.

This instantly exposed me to liability claims I had never in the past been involved in.  I began to see liability claims brought against me for the negligence of others outside of my services, such as those hired and employed by my customers as security personnel.

It didn't take too many law suites to affect my relationship with my insurance company, and for my policy to be in jeopardy.  The actions that I was being held liable for due to one-sided Hold Harmless agreements called for a contractual liability expert.  I needed the assistance of someone who would get to know my business, my customers' needs and my need to isolate my liability to services specifically in the control of my employees and my company.

My broker, Glenn Meyer, introduced me to The Moore-McLean Insurance Group's Solutions Beyond Insurance services, and specifically the services of an expert in this area. Once introduced, the expert quickly grasped the issues I was having. They created the solutions to put my insurance company at ease and satisfy my customers. Most importantly, they worked to protect me from over-exposing myself to liability I had not intentionally agreed to undertake when being contracted to provide security.

I would recommend to any business owner to utilize the services of Dale & Morrow and the entire Moore-McLean Insurance Group, not only for insurance, but also for Solutions which go Beyond Insurance.

Over Moore-McLean has proven year after year that they are more than just an insurance broker selling insurance.  We have been approached many times by other brokers promising to do 'better' or offer lower rates, but insurance is not the only thing Moore-McLean provides for our business.  Moore-McLean's team is competent, concerned and committed to providing professional service and advice whenever it is needed.  They respond quickly and offer insight into many aspects of our business.  Most importantly, they provide reassuring and effective guidance for navigating potential risks inherent in the automotive dealership industry.  Moore-McLean genuinely wants to help its clients succeed in business.  We value our partnership with Moore-McLean and appreciated the value they bring to our organization.

The bond program that you provide through the CSCB offers us very competitive rates, and your accessibility, assistance and response times are second to none.  When we switched our Commercial Insurance policy to Moore-McLean several  years ago, it allowed us to save money, as well as keep our insurance requirements with a trusted, reliable provider.  We look forward to many more years of working together.
