Drivers who are considered high risk in Southern California might find Adriana’s Insurance to be a good fit, but it is an agency, so it does not issue its own policies.
Can compare rates from multiple insurers
Only available to some California residents
Affordable coverage for high-risk drivers
Term and permanent life insurance available
40+ local offices throughout the state
Offers Mexico travel insurance
Adriana’s car insurance review
Adriana’s car insurance may be a good option for high-risk drivers in Southern California who have a difficult time securing affordable coverage. This agency works with drivers and insurance companies to get the best rate possible for each customer's coverage needs. Some of the companies it works with include Bristol West, National General and Kemper.
Adriana's is not an insurance provider. It’s an agency that helps drivers find auto insurance options in California. The agency is particularly focused on assisting high-risk drivers, including those who need an SR-22 filing. As such, this agency could be a good choice for drivers who are unsure where to start for comparing rates and options for coverage.
Coverage options will vary based on the carrier Adriana's pairs you with, but the company may be able to help drivers secure standard coverage types, including full coverage, plus endorsements like windshield replacement coverage and roadside assistance.
Pros and cons of Adriana’s car insurance
Is Adriana's the right choice for your car insurance needs? Bankrate reviews some pros and cons to help you make your choice.
Pros
Advertises affordable coverage options for high-risk drivers
As an agency, Adriana's can source quotes and coverage options from numerous carriers for you to compare
Get quotes and purchase your policy online
Cons
Only available to some California residents
Offers limited digital tools
Not rated by J.D. Power, AM Best or NAIC
Adriana’s car insurance cost
Adriana's is an insurance agency, so your quoted rate will vary based on the carrier you are matched with. The national average for car insurance is $2,685 for full coverage, which includes collision and comprehensive insurance, while minimum insurance is available for a national average of $800.
California's averages tend to be more than the national: In the Golden State, full coverage averages $2,975, while state-mandated minimum coverage averages $861. Keep in mind that if you are a high-risk driver, you may pay more for your coverage, since carriers are likely to view you as being more likely to file a claim.
Adriana's customer satisfaction
Because Adriana’s does not issue its own insurance policies, third-party ratings for customer satisfaction are not available. You may want to speak with existing customers to get an idea of Adriana Insurance reviews and assess their level of satisfaction with the company. You may also benefit from researching third-party reviews for the potential carriers you get matched with through the agency. Major third-party customer satisfaction and financial strength assessors in the insurance industry include J.D. Power and AM Best.
Adriana’s car insurance discounts
There is not much information available regarding the discounts for auto insurance policies and other ways to save from Adriana’s Insurance. However, the company does state that it provides discounts for good drivers. Discounts will vary based on the carrier the agency pairs you with. For more specific discount details, we recommend you reach out to an agent from Adriana's.
As an example, here are a few of the discounts you may find available to you if your policy is underwritten by National General, one of Adriana's partner companies:
Low mileage discount: if you drive less than the average, you might earn some savings on your account.
Telematics discount: National General's telematics program, called DynamicDrive, could save you significant money if you demonstrate safe driving habits.
Paperless discount: if you agree to receive your bills and other documents digitally rather than via postal mail, you may save money.
Security device discount: does your car have an anti-theft system or other security device? It could lead to a discount.

Many insurance experts recommend that you compare insurers before making a decision on the best policies for your needs. Every insurer uses its own proprietary methods for determining rates, and every insurer varies in terms of the types of coverage, possible endorsements and available discounts, so asking for quotes from multiple companies can help you find the most affordable coverage for your needs. Adriana's Insurance advertises that it will help you do this by securing quotes from various partner institutions. However, it's also worth noting that it does not work with all major carriers, so will not be able to give you as broad a spectrum of rate options as you might be able to gather on your own.
Adriana’s Insurance vs. Electric Insurance
While Adriana’s is limited to a specific geographic region, Electric Insurance serves all 50 states, as well as Puerto Rico and Washington, D.C. It also provides a lengthy list of car and home insurance coverage options. Like Adriana's, Electric has limited digital tools, but offers personalized service through agents.
Unlike Adriana’s Insurance, Secura Insurance offers its own policies to customers. If you live outside of Adriana's coverage area, Secura may be an option. The carrier is available in 13 states and puts a major emphasis on social responsibility, including working with charitable organizations focused on sustainability.
Encompass is an Allstate company that offers a full range of car and home insurance coverage options and discounts for a majority of states in the U.S. If you're looking for home and auto coverage, you may be interested in Encompass' single policy deductible option.

Other profiles
Rates were calculated based on the following insurance credit tiers assigned to our drivers: “poor, average, good (base) and excellent.” Insurance credit tiers factor in your official credit scores but are not dependent on that variable alone. Four states prohibit or limit the use of credit as a rating factor in determining auto insurance rates: California, Hawaii, Massachusetts and Michigan.
Rates were calculated by evaluating our base profile with the following incidents applied: clean record (base), at-fault accident, single speeding ticket, single DUI conviction and lapse in coverage.
Rates were calculated by evaluating our base profile with the following differences in mileage: 2K, 5K, 12K (base), 15K and 20K.
Unless otherwise stated, rates are for 2023 vehicle models. For new vs used vehicles, we included the following year in our calculations: 2013.
Rates were calculated by evaluating our base profile with the ages 18-70 (base: 40 years) applied. Depending on age, drivers may be a renter or homeowner. Age is not a contributing rating factor in Hawaii and Massachusetts due to state regulations. For teen drivers, rates were determined by adding a 16- or 17-year-old teen to their 40-year-old married parents' policy. The rates displayed reflect the total cost of a driver this age added to their parents’ policy.
The following states do not use gender as a determining factor in calculating premiums: California, Hawaii, Massachusetts, Michigan, North Carolina, Pennsylvania.
Rates were evaluated based on the following marital/family status: single (base), married, 40-year-old married man and woman. Marital status is not a rating factor in Hawaii and Massachusetts.
