Our Company
The Liberty Company is an independent insurance broker handling the insurance needs of individuals, families, and businesses for 25 years, through trusted providers such as Mercury, Safeco, Hartford, Fireman's Fund and virtually all other preferred markets.
From our different locations, the professionals at The Liberty Company manage the personal and business insurance requirements for over 30,000 clients with nearly $50 million in premium. Our sales and servicing environment is highly automated to ensure the greatest efficiency and accuracy in working with each account, but our people, their personable approach, and careful attention to detail are at the core of our longstanding client relationships.
The Liberty Company is owned by Bill Johnson, who founded the company in 1987, and Tom Leach.
We are a proud member of the Atlantic Pacific Insurance Brokers affiliation of Independent Insurance Agencies.
