What is an Independent Insurance Agency?

Securing insurance coverage for yourself or your business is not as simple as choosing a home appliance or office furniture. First, you have to figure out what coverage best suits your needs. Then, you have to figure out who to buy from to get the right products at the best price. Factor in the large number of insurance companies seeking your business and the countless ways to mix and match different policies, and it can quickly become an overwhelming and stressful situation.

Now the good news. You don’t have to do any of that.

Just as you rely on the doctor to diagnose and treat your personal healthcare needs, you can rely on Leap/Carpenter/Kemps to determine what insurance you need, and then shop for that insurance on your behalf, saving you a lot of time and headache.

We are not an insurance company offering a limited set of options. We are an independent agency working with hundreds of financially stable, trusted insurance companies. That means our commitment is to you, not to any particular insurer. It also means we can look at a broad variety of options when tailoring the very best package for you.

We also work for you year-round, not just at renewal time. As your family or business grows or changes, we’ll adjust your insurance coverage to reflect your new situation.

Contact us today and let our independent agents get to work for you!
