About Your Independent Insurance Agents
With an independent insurance agent, you have choices. Independent agents are not tied to any one insurance company. One of the advantages of using an independent agent is that they work to satisfy your needs. You are using an expert for an important financial decision.
​
An independent agent has several companies that he or she can approach to get you the best coverage at the best price. And your independent agent will know the companies with the most efficient claims departments to recover your losses as quickly as possible.
​
When you buy insurance, whether it's for life, disability, or health insurance, you want an advocate who will properly assess the risks you face and give you an objective analysis of the marketplace, it's up to you to make the final choice.
Insurance Carriers
As independent agents, we have established long term, solid relationships with some of the top national and regional carriers in the industry. Our experienced staff will be able to provide comprehensive, expert insurance solutions and service.
​
For you, our client, this provides competitive pricing, coverage options, and peace of mind that the company providing your insurance coverage meets our standards. We work with several insurance carriers, including:
• Encompass™
• Fidelity™
• Mercury™
• MetLife™
• One Beacon™
