  • Our Solutions . We offer a full range of traditional and non-traditional insurance solutions, including in-house claims, safety management, and captive insurance services. We also offer an independent contractor platform and brokerage claims advocacy. The best part- the services aren't charged back to the producer .
  • Trucking Captives . We are the exclusive broker for 7 trucking captives, including the two largest in the world. There are over 245 captive members and a 99% retention rate in our captives.
  • Clients love us . They choose us because they see value in the services we offer and stay with us because we exceed their expectations. The Transportation Division has an average annual organic growth rate of 12.5% and our client retention is over 95%.
