Local Allstate Agent: Meet Jay Smits

I have lived in the Grand Rapids area for most of my life, and my wife and I cannot imagine living anywhere else. This area has so much to offer with Lake Michigan beaches just 40 minutes away, and we can drive to Chicago or Detroit in just a couple of hours. A perfect summer day for me is visiting Michigan’s lakeshore communities, shopping at our local farmers market and engaging in my passion for photographing Lake Michigan sunsets.

I know and love life here, and it’s important to me to give back to the community that has given me so much. When my sons were playing sports, I coached baseball and football, and I was the president of the Grand Rapids Rocket Football League for five years. I was also a MHSAA football official for 12 years and a baseball umpire for two. My wife and I were also involved in the Grand Rapids Central High School Music Boosters for 8 years, and I was president for 4 years.

Insurance is important to our family as my three sons work in the industry. My son is also an Allstate agent, and in 2015 he helped me transition out of a career in healthcare technology and open the doors to my own Allstate agency. Our team is focused on providing the very best customer care, and we work with customers individually and help them customize their coverage for their specific needs. We’re ready to help you protect what is important to you — your home, vehicles and more. Our Allstate Personal Financial Representative is also on hand to help you with life insurance, college savings or preparing for retirement. Please call or stop by today!

Products we offer:

Auto Insurance in Grand Rapids
Close Auto insurance modal
Helps protect you and your vehicle if you’re involved in a car accident. At a minimum, you’ll likely need bodily injury liability and property damage liability to meet state auto insurance coverage requirements and help protect your finances if you cause an accident that injures another driver or damages their property.

We also offer uninsured motorist coverage to help with your expenses if you’re hit by a driver without insurance. If you’re looking for coverage to help protect your vehicle, you might want to consider collision coverage and comprehensive coverage, which help pay repair costs if your car is damaged in a covered loss. And, optional coverages, like new car replacement coverage or loan/lease gap coverage help protect your investment in a brand-new car.

I can help you choose a combination of coverages that fulfill state requirements and meet your needs. Give me a call to get a car insurance quote today!

Business Insurance in Grand Rapids
Close Business insurance modal
Allstate Business Insurance protects your business in ways other insurance might not. A business owners policy (BOP) usually includes three common types of coverage to help protect you and your small business: property coverage, general liability coverage and business interruption coverage. In addition to these basic coverages, the Allstate Business Owners Policy can be customized with additional protection to help cover more aspects of your business.

I can help you tailor a policy to fit your small business’s needs. As a small business owner myself, I understand how important it is to protect what you’ve worked so hard to build.

Call me for a free review of your current business policy and to learn more about insurance solutions to help protect you, your business and your employees.

Help protect yourself and your all-terrain vehicle against the unexpected. We offer bodily injury liability coverage and property damage liability coverage on your ATV insurance policy.

If your ATV is damaged in a crash, collision coverage may help. Collision coverage for your ATV helps pay for repairs if you hit another object, such as a fence or a tree. Finally, you may want to consider comprehensive coverage for your ATV in case it’s stolen, vandalized or damaged by hail or fire.

Property coverage for your boat helps cover a crash with another boat or object (like a pier or buoy). It also helps cover theft, vandalism or fire. Help protect your boat against these covered perils during the on- and off-season. We also offer additional coverage for things like your boat trailer, fishing equipment and even towing or fuel delivery when you’re stranded. Need a boat insurance quote? Give me a call today!

Beginning July 2, 2020, Michigan will no longer require drivers to purchase expensive, unlimited Personal Injury Protection (PIP) coverage with their auto insurance. Drivers now have the freedom to pick their own insurance options, selecting the level of coverage that’s right for them.
The new law ends the state’s unique requirement that motorists purchase auto insurance policies with unlimited, lifetime medical benefits for auto accident related injuries.
But that's not the only change that could affect you. Call or stop by my agency today to learn more.
