“My only previous claim to Newton Crum was in the 1970's and I was impressed with the response and service then. I am pleased to find nothing has changed over the years. More than can be said for most insurance and financial companies. Your approach to my latest claim involving recovery from a third party, was positive, logical and successful. Thank you." “The Friendly, Family, Dinghy Class”
