Best car insurance companies in Mattoon

If you wanted to find the best rates in Mattoon, you'd have to compare hundreds of insurance providers and thousands of coverage options...but we've done all the research for you!

To discover the best of the best, Jerry conducted one of the nation's largest shopping surveys.

We found that

State Farm

Allstate

, Country Insurance,

Travelers

, and Assurant held the biggest market shares in Illinois.

However, they didn’t necessarily earn the highest ratings. Because every car insurance provider calculates premiums differently, the best insurance policy varies from driver to driver.

You’ll have to compare quotes from at least three companies while shopping for auto insurance to find what works for you.

The table below shows how drivers in Mattoon rate different companies on a scale of 0 to 5.

Insurance company	Overall rating	Price	Claims experience	Customer service
Progressive	4.4	3.9	4.1	4.4
Allstate	4.4	3.6	4.2	4.7
Liberty Mutual	4.2	4	N/A	4.2
State Farm	3.9	3.7	2.8	4.1
Geico	3.7	2.9	4.2	3.7

How'd we get these scores?
Jerry's experts conducted one of the largest car insurance surveys in the United States. We surveyed 15,000 policyholders, in all 50 states, over the span of 18 months. These policyholders hold insurance policies with 87 different insurance companies. We surveyed policyholders to gauge their satisfaction with their insurance carriers in: policy cost, customer service, buying and renewal experience, as well as claim experience. These scores were all reported by real customers of the insurance companies.

Best cheap car insurance quotes in Mattoon

Illinois car insurance laws

require every driver—including those in Mattoon—to carry

liability car insurance

and

Uninsured Motorist/Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM) bodily injury coverage

Liability insurance covers the costs of treating anyone you injure in an at-fault accident and repairing (or replacing) any property you damage. However, UM/UIM bodily injury coverage covers the medical expenses of you and your passengers if they exceed the at-fault driver’s coverage limits.

Cheap minimum liability insurance quotes in Mattoon

Drivers in Mattoon, Illinois pay an average of $63/month for liability-only coverage. The minimum liability coverage requirements in Mattoon, Illinois, follow a 25/50/20 (plus 25/50) rule.

To put it simply, you'll need a policy that covers at least:

$25,000 of

bodily injury liability

coverage per person

$50,000 of bodily injury liability coverage per accident

$20,000 of

property damage liability

coverage per accident

$25,000 of UM/UIM bodily injury coverage per person

$50,000 of UM/UIM bodily injury coverage per accident

By sticking with the minimum required liability coverage, you’ll probably pay the lowest rates. Jerry helps Mattoon drivers find low rates for no-frills coverage.

Do you need more than minimum coverage in Mattoon?

In Mattoon, drivers should consider topping up their liability coverage beyond the state's minimum requirement of 25/50/20.

The state minimum coverage requirements provide a lot of protection, but medical and repair bills tend to add up.

If you cause a car accident and the injured party’s expenses exceed your coverage limits, you’ll have to pay the rest out of pocket. They also have the right to sue you in a personal injury lawsuit for up to two years after the accident, according to

Illinois’s car accident laws

The bottom line: Doubling your liability and UM/UIM coverage limits won’t double your rates, but it’ll provide better financial protection in the event of a serious car accident.

Cheap full coverage car insurance quotes in Mattoon

On average, drivers in Mattoon pay approximately $165/month for a full coverage policy.

Full-coverage car insurance

isn't required by law, but it provides coverage for repairs to (or a replacement of) your vehicles.

A full coverage policy includes

collision coverage

and

comprehensive coverage

Collision insurance covers the costs of repairing or replacing your car following an accident with another vehicle or stationary object.

Comprehensive coverage also covers the costs of repairing or replacing your car but it only applies to damages caused by theft, vandalism, or natural disasters.

If you have a car loan, your lender will require you to maintain collision and comprehensive coverage until you’ve paid off your car. You can cut costs by using Jerry to find the lowest full coverage car insurance rates in Mattoon.

"Jerry is the new benchmark in app usefulness. Period. It is SO EASY and the results are SO GOOD, and they specifically point out that no one is going to start calling and emailing me all the time. I gave very little info, it pulled up all my existing insurance info, and showed me how to get the same insurance for less, lesser coverage for huge savings, or better coverage for about the same I currently pay. I am personally saving around $1,400/year with my new insurance, and the entire process (including follow ups to sign the docs from the insurance companies) took less than an hour. If you make over $1,400/hour, this may not be worth your time. Otherwise, get the app and use it now!"
