I recommend going with companies that have a three circle rating or better. A.M. Best (ambest.com) A.M. Best publishes an insurance company's financial ratings. These ratings measure an insurance company's ability to pay its insurance claims. Ratings go from A++ (the highest) to D (the lowest). You want to go with a company that has a B+ rating or higher.
