Direct writers distribute policies using company employee's; independent agency companies utilize the independent agency system to distribute products - independent agents can represent multiple companies and are not employees of the insurer. Typically, a licensed agent is needed in order to sell you a policy and the agent is either a company employee or an independent agent. Therefore, there will always be an agent of record for your policy if you purchased it through an independent agent.

Either way, your policy Declarations Page should show an address or phone number to call if you need service. Hope this helps.
