PERSONAL
INSURANCE

Insurance solutions for the everyday lives of individuals and families. We can help tailor custom coverage for important things such as your home or rental properties to specialty items like your family antique heirlooms & jewelry or an excess liability umbrella policy.  We can even help with basic forms of life insurance coverage to ensure your family has income to help with life expenses if the unfortunate should occur. 

​

COMMERCIAL
INSURANCE

Being a business owner takes significant risk, time & attention.  Together we can identify those risks and formulate an insurance plan that helps protect crucial things like your liability for your work or products, the property you own & lease to others, or the illnesses & injuries sustained by one of your workers.

“Santa Barbara Insurance Agency has provided me excellent service and insurance protection for over 25 years. They represent quality, reliable companies with values consistent to their own. I not only insure my stuff with them, but I refer them my clients as well. Without hesitation, I would recommend the team over at Santa Barbara Insurance Agency. ”

OUR 
MARKETS

The insurance realm is vast and complex. Our job is to help you navigate this landscape and protect the things that matter to you. Through brokered relationships, we have access to hundreds of carriers and their products to help in almost any client need. However, we have found that our ability to provide the level of service and the quality/value of products we envision is found with our established partnerships.  These partnerships include many of the most respected and longstanding national and regional carriers in the industry.

Below are some of the carriers we have chosen to work closest with.
