Mercury Insurance Group Is Prepared to Help Hurricane Rita Victims

        Mercury Insurance Group Toll-Free Claims Hotline: 800-503-3724

    AUSTIN, Texas, Sept. 22 /PRNewswire/ -- As Hurricane Rita strengthens
across the Gulf of Mexico and moves toward the Texas shoreline, Mercury
Insurance Group emergency response teams have mobilized to support its auto
insurance policyholders with claims resulting from Hurricane Rita.  The
response teams are now in place and prepared to immediately deploy to impacted
areas as soon as allowed by Texas officials.
    Mercury staff appraisers will begin canvassing damaged areas in easily
identifiable claims response vehicles, literally making house calls and -- as
necessary -- issuing checks to its impacted policyholders, according to
Richard L. McCathron, Vice President Western Region of Mercury General Corp.
    Mercury policyholders with questions regarding their coverage for damage
caused by Hurricane Rita should call Mercury's toll-free claims hotline,
800-503-3724.
