Effective September 1st, 2013, Bob Lane Insurance Services will become “SeaFirst Insurance Brokers”.

“SeaFirst Insurance Brokers initiated the purchase of Bob Lane Insurance Services several years ago, bringing a wealth of experience, knowledge, and superior product offerings to the Westshore. We are excited to finally complete the transition over to the SeaFirst brand, and look forward to continuing to serve the community for many years to come”, says Doug Strong, President of SeaFirst Insurance Brokers.

“We thank Bob Lane for his committment to excellence in providing insurance to his clients, and enabling a smooth transition of the business. We wish him a long and happy retirement.”

Shawn Fehr, BA, CAIB, CIP, will manage the office and continue to specialize in commercial insurance. In addition, Scott Mennie has been hired as a commercial insurance broker. Both fellow are well-known in the Westshore area, and will be happy to help with all of your insurance needs.

“Yesterday my husband and I completed a private purchase of a vehicle in Sidney. The seller suggested we go to your agency to do the transfer and insurance. What an amazing customer service experience. All three employees were engaging and helpful. The gent who helped with our transaction was absolutely awesome. Thank you for your stellar service. We live in Colwood but joked we will drive to Sidney for all of our insurance needs on a go forward! Keep building the incredible culture you have at the Sidney location.”

“SeaFirst and Garrett have been wonderful to deal with, quick to respond to our needs and questions. Even better is that they saved us a ton of money on our insurance with their adventure tourism specific policy.”

“I was satisfied and pleased with the prompt attention with which our claim was handled. Each person I spoke to during this process was very helpful.”

“The service received from SeaFirst, the adjusters, the insurers and the restoration people was great. I highly recommend everybody who was involved. Thanks for the help in a horrible situation.”

“SeaFirst Insurance has been the insurer of Driftwood's assets and liability since our opening day of operation in 2008. They have been able to customize, adapt and structure our growing needs into a comprehensive plan that is far superior in value and relevance to our unique needs than anything else presented to us.”

“SeaFirst Insurance dealt with an emergency flood situation whilst we were out of the country and were unreachable! They acted immediately when a neighbour called them to inform (them) about the flood, sending a service tech team out that same night. SeaFirst's repair and restoration team were instructed, coordinated, highly skilled, fast workers and absolutely amazing in every way possible.”

“We were fortunate enough to have discovered SeaFirst in 2001. We have very specific insurance requirements and often need to call SeaFirst for additions, information, clarifications and such. Responses are always immediate and thorough. We would recommend SeaFirst, without reservation, to anyone considering their services.”

“Honest, insightful and accurate service is what we’ve come to expect from Shawn and the team at SeaFirst Insurance Brokers. The firm has unmatched customer service coupled with incredible expertise and most importantly - they save us time because I know that when I contact them, they’ll take care of our issue quickly and correctly.”

“As a business consultant, I realize that a key building block of any operating plan is risk management; more to the point – informed risk management that not only protects operations but can promote growth with how you structure your liability coverage. I have zero hesitation in recommending SeaFirst Insurance as a strategic partner in all aspects of professional risk management.”

“We experienced a loss within the first three months of becoming store owners. The staff at SeaFirst insurance helped us to get through it with their great understanding and service. They were wonderful to work with, especially under the circumstances.”

“I was very happy with the timely decision on the acceptance of my claim. As a small business owner, it was important to me that there were no unnecessary delays that would impact my business. I am very happy with the straight forward expediting of this claim.”

“Service was exceptional from both SeaFirst and the adjuster! The adjuster visited the property the same day I reported the damage and all parties operated efficiently and professionally.”

"Thank you for your professionalism, I would never entrust my insurance with anyone but Seafirst, quick , easy and timely, Warm regards Edwina"

"Alexander was incredible in helping us secure insurance quickly for our charity event. Thanks to his swift service, we were able to raise over $23,000 to support sending kids with disabilities to Camp Shawnigan. We're so grateful for Seafirst's support!"
