HLS Insurance is an independent insurance adviser run by Matt Guildford, from Manners Street in Te Aro, Wellington. Matt has 15 years of experience and works from the central city, where clients can meet him face to face or over a coffee. The firm specialises in life, health, trauma, income protection and mortgage protection cover.
The firm compares cover across most of New Zealand's leading life and health insurers, so clients see the whole market rather than one insurer's products. It says it charges no fee for its advice and is paid a commission by the insurer if a policy is taken out. Its website adds that it helps with claims and reviews policies regularly as a client's life changes. Open Locally counts nine other insurance listings within a kilometre.
