Palisades credits itself as the “nice” New Jersey Car Insurance Company, a company that pairs low rates with friendly, local customer service. In addition to personal auto insurance, Palisades offers commercial auto, homeowners, and umbrella policies strictly for New Jersey residents.

The company was founded in 1992 to be the “nice” car insurer, stemming from the idea that drivers and agents will have more reason to smile if the service is friendly and done right. Today, Palisades is the largest independent agent auto insurance company in the state.

Palisades is part of the Plymouth Rock Group of Companies, which writes and manages more than $1 billion in personal and commercial auto and homeowner’s insurance across the Northeast. The Group includes Plymouth Rock Assurance Corporation, Pilgrim Insurance Company, Bunker Hill Insurance Company in Massachusetts and Connecticut, Mt. Washington Assurance Corporation in New Hampshire, Palisades, High Point Insurance, and Teachers Auto Insurance Company in New Jersey.
