Briggs & Williams Insurance
Briggs & Williams Insurance is an independent insurance agency in Columbus, Ohio, writing commercial insurance and bonding for businesses and contractors in Central Ohio.
The agency places coverage with a range of carriers rather than writing policies itself. Commercial lines include business owners policies, business liability, commercial property, commercial umbrella, contractor liability and bonding, business specialty coverage, and special event and festival insurance. It also writes personal lines: homeowners, auto, classic vehicle, motorcycle, ATV and jet ski.
The agency says its niche is risks other agents pass on, citing coverage placed for breweries, wineries, candle makers, archery ranges, bow hunting clubs and yoga studios. Its office is at 1335 Dublin Rd in Columbus, open Monday through Friday, and it emphasises that callers reach a person rather than a call centre.
Rates and carrier appointments are not published. Quotes are requested by phone or through the site's contact form, so ask which markets the agency can reach for your property type and whether it can bond the contractors you use.
