What We Do
Independent Insurance Agent
As an Independent Insurance Agent, our first responsibility is to you, our client. It's our job to understand your unique needs and provide the right coverage. We have relationships with many top insurance carriers to give you the best mix of price, coverage, and service. We believe the more options you have, the better insurance decisions you can make.
​
Personal Touch
​
At big insurance companies you never talk to the same person twice. Our knowledgeable agents are just a quick call, email, or text away. We're here to help you with a claim or make a change to your policy.
​
Business Philosophy
​
We know there are lots of options when buying insurance. We also know that each person's insurance needs are different. We like to understand who our clients are and what they need to protect. We become a trusted advisor on how to mitigate risk. Our mission is to provide our clients with solid coverage for the worst possible loss. And when a loss happens, we are there to help them navigate recovery from that loss.
​
Many of our competitors compete on price and cut corners when it comes to coverage and service. You'd be surprised how many times a new client comes to us with so little insurance coverage that one major accident would bankrupt them or put them out of business. We try to find our clients the best deal possible, but we won't sacrifice coverage or service.

What Robin likes about insurance:

The same insurance principles exist today. Accidents happen. I find it rewarding to help people recover from an accident or loss with their finances secure."

What Michael likes about insurance:
“I enjoy helping clients understand insurance products that can be confusing. I frequently review insurance portfolios for new clients and find they had policies that left them unknowingly exposed to risks and sometimes missing necessary coverage. I find success when I can give my clients the proper coverage at a fair price that gives them peace of mind. Many times we can accomplish that while saving them money!”
