Eric Swanson is changing the producer role and the concept of risk transfer by combining his expertise in insurance with legal knowledge. While working as a producer, he attended evening classes at Chicago-Kent College of Law and passed the bar exam two years ago, receiving the CALI Award for the highest score in mediation. Now, Swanson is able to provide contractual review alongside the insurance policies he places at Aleckson Insurance, which allows more thorough coverage for clients and enables the agency to market the ‘Business Backstop Approach’ he helped create.
Swanson sits on the agency advisory council of several carriers and is a member of the Education Committee of the Association of Subcontractors and Affiliates of Chicago.
