Michael Short: Allstate Insurance

Local Allstate Agent: Meet Michael Short

As a third-generation member of the Allstate family, I have learned how insurance can help during challenging times — and how important it is to act with integrity. These values are at the core of the Short Family Agency in Denville.

My start in insurance came when I was a student at West Morris High School and worked at my father's agency. I later graduated from the University of Scranton, and after volunteering in Brooklyn and working as a high school administrator in Scranton for several years, I returned to my father's Long Valley agency in 2003. Five years later, I bought the agency from my father so he could retire. I'm proud to build on the lasting relationships and friendships he developed with customers over the years.

In 2010, I bought my Denville, New Jersey, agency. I've grown to love the people here, and I'm an active member of the Denville Chamber of Commerce. I'm also a proud resident of Morris County and take advantage of the many wonderful offerings of the Garden State. From beaches to golf courses and ski slopes, it's a great place for my wife and me to raise our son.

I give back to our community through sponsorships of the Denville Rotary Club, the Action for Distraction Run/Walk (to benefit the Goryeb Children's Hospital), Alex's Lemonade Stand and more. This community has given me so much, and I'm happy to support area organizations and local athletic teams.

The Short Family Agency is a family-run business, and we offer personalized service for your auto, home, life and other insurance needs. Whether you need to save for college or retirement, we look forward to working with your family and helping you choose what works best for your life. We are right below the Arthur Murray Dance Studio and next to the rear entrance of Thatcher McGee's on Bloomfield Avenue.

Products we offer:

Auto Insurance in Denville
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 Denville

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.
Life Insurance in Denville
Close Life insurance modal
Protect the life you want, for those that matter most.

Call me today to learn about the different types of coverage Allstate offers.
ATV Insurance in Denville
Close ATV insurance modal
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 you injure someone else or damage their property while driving your ATV, liability coverage helps pay the other person’s medical or repair bills.

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!

If a pipe bursts in the home you're renting, your personal property may suffer the consequences. But a renters insurance policy may help protect you from losses to personal property in incidences such as this — and give you the peace of mind that comes with knowing safeguards are in place if things get soggy.
