I just paid Marsh $212 last month for the lowest coverage <20h/week.  They
had quoted me $176 four months earlier, and $132 in May of last year.  I
asked Marsh the representative on the phone if these kinds of rate hikes
were common, and she told me the previous quotes were inaccurate and that
they had just raised their rates for the first time in over a year.  This
definitely warrants some explanation.  I wish I'd have known about the USCLA
liability insurance option before I sent my payment to Marsh!
