Mercury Insurance and Safeco Insurance to Transition California Customers and Agents

August 6, 2025

Mercury Insurance is partnering with Liberty Mutual Insurance on a plan to provide coverage for thousands of California Safeco Insurance customers impacted by a shift in Liberty Mutual’s California personal lines product strategy.

The companies say that Liberty Mutual will recommend to appointed independent agents that they place impacted Safeco renters, condo and select auto policies with Mercury.

Mercury Insurance is a multiline insurance carrier offering personal auto, homeowners, and renters insurance directly to consumers and through a network of independent agents in Arizona, California, Georgia, Illinois, Nevada, New Jersey, New York, Oklahoma, Texas and Virginia, as well as auto insurance in Florida. Mercury also writes business owners, business auto, landlord, commercial multi-peril and mechanical protection insurance in various states.

Liberty Mutual operates through three business units: U.S. retail markets, providing auto, home, renters and other personal and small commercial lines property/casualty insurance to individuals and small businesses; global risk solutions, delivering a range of commercial and specialty insurance, reinsurance and surety services to mid-size and large businesses; and Liberty Mutual investments, deploying more than $100 billion of long-term capital globally.
