Would you like to outsource many of the mundane parts of insurance?

t

Need help managing your insurance compliance with clients?

t

Interested in working with insurance professionals that “get it”?

Let us take on the burden of keeping up with your insurance. Think of us as your outsourced Professional Insurance & Risk Management department. By simplifying the complex, we can help you reduce risk and increase profit.

Part of making things simple, is working with your firm in the way you want us to engage you. Our approach is driven by you. We can be as hands-off as you want us to be, or we can provide you with tailored advice throughout your customer journey.

Proven Results

The majority of companies that became our clients did so because we saved them 10% – 20% on their Professional Liability Insurance (E&O) policy for the same or better coverage.

N

Performance

Many firms became our clients because their current agent did not have the expertise or access to particular markets. Other clients came to us through referrals based on our high level of customer attention.
N

Service

Each client request is a priority. Same-day answers, even within-the-hour responses to requests for certificates, client-specific increased limit options and policy inquiries are the rule and not the exception.
N

Reputation

We are proud to be known for our entrepreneurial spirit, creativity and unique insight in the design professional arena.

Couldn't be more pleased with the level of service and competitive pricing. I have a niche business that falls outside the norm of most. Risk Specialty Group took the time to understand my business and provide the perfect solution of coverage for me. I highly recommend them to any small business in need of coverage.

When I started my business 4 years ago, the team at Risk Specialty Group was recommended to me by a long-time colleague to handle business and professional liability insurance. I could not be happier! Travis, Deanna, and the entire team are wonderful to work with. They consistently provide excellent service and go above and beyond to make sure I have what I need, when I need it. One example: I purchased a new vehicle for the business and was signing paperwork late on a Friday afternoon not realizing I would need auto insurance before I drove it off of the lot. Travis and his team took my call at 5pm and made sure I had coverage so I could drive home before 6pm, on a Friday! Just one example of their excellent service and responsiveness.

The Risk Specialty Group was recommended to TTL by another client of theirs. We have not been disappointed! Both Travis and Candi have been wonderful to work with - the communication is exceptional and the overall switch from a different company has been seamless. I look forward to working with them for many more years to come.

Risk Specialty Group has handled my micro-company's insurance for almost five years. They have consistently provided prompt, professional, friendly, and effective customer service. I am always sure that I have access to their "A" team and that they are in my corner. Of all my service providers, they are #1 in that department. 6 stars if I could.
