Lisa Newman - Inszone Insurance Senior Personal Insurance Specialist

Lisa Newman is a Senior Personal Insurance Specialist at Inszone Insurance Services, joining Inszone in July 2021 after the merger with Interstate Benefits & Casualty Insurance Services. Lisa began her career in 2006 when she was hired as the agency’s bookkeeper and in 2009, she became a licensed agent specializing in home and auto.

Lisa’s bookkeeping skills naturally transferred her into the policy service part of being an agent. Communication, listening, and attention to detail are her keys to success, and the experience she received has made all the difference to her as she continues to serve her customers as well as her community at large.

Lisa has been a resident of Nevada County since 1989 and has been involved in many community groups. Currently she is the co-founder of the Newman Memorial Foundation which was founded after the loss of her two sons, Ryan and Brett. The Newman Foundation provides scholarships to assist young adults in her community to defray the costs of their first year in college.

On her off time, she enjoys spending time with her grandson, Finn, being a homemaker, serving at her church, making Sunday dinner, crafting, and reading.

Speaking to Lisa removed all the stress and anxiety I was having before I called her. Regarding renters insurance. She got my information said she would take care of me and that she would call back. She did just that called me and took care of me. She was wonderful. I would definitely recommend her.

I’d like to recognize Lisa Newman for her recent exceptional service.

I was reading my insurance policies and noticed some unusual wording dealing with exclusions, as Steve Keeney had changed our insurance policies from Kemper into Mercury. I reached out to Lisa for clarification and she promptly contacted the Mercury underwriters for for information. Although unusual, the reasoning kinda makes some sense. I truly appreciate her assistance, research and prompt replies. She deserves recognition..

Lisa at at Inszone Insurance Services has been nothing but fantastic. She was an invaluable help with a major claim from storm damage, and has recently helped us get coverage after we had our original policy “non renewed” after the company decided not to cover our area. She has gone above and beyond, even went out of her way to take the required photos of our home when we were out of town. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

Lisa was so helpful in resolving an issue with a prior insurance co that we’d cancelled but hadn’t received a refund from. It took a almost a year to complete the research. But the refund came and she kept us up to date with progress until it finally resolved.

She also unraveled the mystery of why we had two identical PUP policies and which one was the right one to keep.

Lisa is without a doubt the most knowledgeable, professional, honest insurance agent I have ever worked with.

I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs an approachable, professional person to deal with the insurance world today.

Lisa is The Best! I have been working with her for our homeowners insurance for over 5 yrs. now & she is always right on top of things & is amazing at communicating/follow up/resolving when necessary. When our policy was cancelled a few yrs back she found us another co. right away & the premium was even less than what we had been paying! Then a few months ago Lisa called me to let me know I may be getting another cancellation notice & after a few f/u calls during the week, she walked me through what to do so our policy would not be cancelled. I was SO appreciative for the heads up b/c I would’ve panicked if I received that notice in the mail, she saved me a lot of undue stress, Thank You Lisa! 🙂
