Car and other insurancies: try Tony Mintz, Farmers Insurance - Tony Mintz
Insurance 2881 El Camino Real # F Redwood City, CA (650) 364-8428 .

He handled us as out-of-state drivers and not out-of-country drivers, and we
thus got quite a good rate.

What companies have you > tried and what are the conditions? Don't know about Rechtsschutz, but regarding Haftpflicht: for cars take the phone-book and call a lot of the car insurance companies. Prices vary greatly, and if you just arrived here you will find that its expensive and you cannot get good coverage. This will change in about one to two years, unless you were involved in a traffic accident or got a ticket.

Haftpflicht (liability): this is often coupled with general renters insurance or house insurance (i.e. against theft, fire, ...) but you may be able to get it separatly. Most of the big insurance companies offer this. If you get all insurance policies from the same company you may get a better deal.

So call lots of them, compare what they offer, and read the fine print.
