March 15, from 11 am - 1 pm. Berth 55 in Long Beach, CA.
Territory Manager, West Field Sales (Los Angeles West) — Hagerty
Brian Kadorian has spent over 15 years inside the automotive insurance world, starting at an independent agency in Calabasas in 2009 and working his way through nearly every role along the way. That ground-up experience gave him a rare perspective — not just how insurance works on paper, but how decisions are actually made, and where enthusiasts unknowingly leave money, coverage, or protection on the table.
Born and raised in Southern California, Brian grew up immersed in car culture, canyon roads, and motorsports. His lifelong obsession with cars (his mom says he came out of the womb making racecar noises) made joining Hagerty a natural fit. Today, he helps agencies and collectors protect the time, money, and emotional investment behind the cars they love, while also supporting the broader automotive lifestyle through events, education, and community.
A Gran Turismo–era enthusiast with a soft spot for Japanese sports cars, Brian closely follows how once-underrated vehicles are becoming serious collector assets. He’s equally at home talking policy language, paddock culture, and why the wrong insurance setup can quietly ruin an otherwise perfect build.
What your policy isn’t telling you—and why it matters
Most car owners think they’re “covered” until something actually happens.
In this seminar, Brian pulls back the curtain on how automotive insurance really works — especially for enthusiasts, modified cars, and vehicles that don’t fit the average daily-driver mold. This is not a sales pitch and not an intro-to-insurance 101. It’s a candid, insider conversation about the gaps, misconceptions, and quiet risks most enthusiasts don’t realize they’re taking.
The most common insurance myths car enthusiasts believe (and why they’re wrong)
Why “full coverage” often isn’t what people think it is
How modifications, track days, and “spirited driving” actually affect claims
When standard insurance quietly fails, and what specialty coverage really protects
Red flags to watch for before you ever need to file a claim
Enthusiasts with modified, collectible, or sentimental cars
Anyone who’s ever said “I think I’m covered?”
Drivers who want clarity without the corporate jargon
Expect real examples, honest explanations, and plenty of space for Q&A. You’ll leave with a clearer understanding of how to protect your cars and yourself, without overpaying or being blindsided later.
