Darryl Dhoffer is an award-winning independent protection adviser who specialises in all four key types of protection: life insurance, critical illness cover, income protection and family income benefit. Unlike large call centres, Darryl also arranges your mortgage — meaning your protection is designed to work alongside your mortgage from day one.
The initial consultation and quote are completely free.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions
What protection insurance do I actually need? ›
The right protection depends on your personal circumstances — whether you have a mortgage, dependants, employer sick pay, savings and your health. As a minimum, Darryl recommends: life insurance if you have a mortgage or dependants, income protection if you would struggle financially if you couldn't work, and critical illness cover as additional protection against serious illness. The good news is that comprehensive cover often costs much less than people expect.
Can I get life insurance, critical illness and income protection together? ›
Yes — and combining policies often provides the best value and most comprehensive protection. Darryl Dhoffer specialises in designing complete protection plans that cover all the key risks: death, serious illness and inability to work. He will calculate exactly the right combination for your situation and budget.
How much does protection insurance cost in the UK? ›
Protection insurance is often far cheaper than people expect. Life insurance can start from £6/month, income protection from £25/month, critical illness from £15/month and family income benefit from £10/month for younger, healthier applicants. The cost depends on your age, health, occupation and the level of cover. Darryl will provide exact quotes from the whole market.
Should I get protection insurance through my employer? ›
Employer-provided protection (such as death in service or group income protection) is a valuable benefit but it typically ends when you leave the job, may not be portable, and often provides lower levels of cover than individual policies. Darryl will review your employer benefits and identify any gaps that personal protection should fill.
Is Darryl Dhoffer a protection insurance specialist? ›
Yes. Darryl Dhoffer of The Mortgage Geezer holds CeMAP and CeRER qualifications and is an independent, whole-of-market protection adviser regulated by the FCA (No. 301173). He specialises in life insurance, critical illness cover, income protection and family income benefit — and uniquely, he arranges both your mortgage and your protection, ensuring they work together perfectly.
