Meet Our Insurance Team - New Berlin, WI and Across the Midwest
Independent Since 1997, Serving Clients in 24 States
Independent means we don't work for one carrier, we work for you. We shop dozens of companies to find the right mix of coverage and cost, and when your situation changes, we re-shop it instead of defending one company's product. Our office is in New Berlin, and we're serving clients in 24 states whose homes, businesses, and investment properties cross state lines.
How We Work With New Clients
First, we get to know you, whether that's over coffee or a cocktail. Then we get to know your business and your goals, so we're assessing the risks that are actually specific to you instead of handing you a template. From there we shop the market and bring you real options, with a plain explanation of what each one does and doesn't cover. You end up knowing exactly what you bought, and you have peace of mind knowing you're protected.

He is especially involved in complex accounts, new business strategy, and helping clients evaluate coverage options across multiple carriers and states. Toby’s approach is relationship driven: understand the client first, explain the choices clearly, and build a long-term insurance strategy around what matters most.
