One of the province's leading full-service insurance agencies has become part of the Westland Insurance Group. The acquisition of Underwriters Insurance by Westland, an insurance company with 62 offices in British Columbia, should give Underwriters Insurance clients the benefits of greater scale while preserving the service that the company has become known for, says Westland.
"We're proud to announce that Underwriters Insurance is now a member of the Westland Insurance Group," representative Cory Ladner said, "The merger will give us the ability to offer even better claims support and agent availability, along with more generous underwriting capacity, so our loyal customers are going to benefit greatly."
Underwriters Insurance quickly carved out a spot for itself among British Columbia brokerages. Its offices in Vancouver and Kamloops offer both personal and commercial lines.
With a just-increased total of 62 offices spread throughout British Columbia, Westland Insurance Group is one of the province's largest. The greater scale of the Westland organization means that Underwriters Insurance clients should expect more responsive claims support. The company is also looking to bolster the product list.
The same Underwriters Insurance staff members who have built relationships with so many clients will remain in place at the same office locations in Vancouver and Kamloops.
