(00:02:57) “We’re not selling any insurance… We’re simply just looking at premiums that were already paid and reviewing the past audits for potential errors.”
(00:07:30) “If you spend a grand total of 45 minutes with us, that’s probably about it.”
(00:22:39) “The absolute worst case scenario is absolutely nothing. You have peace of mind.”
