The Agency
The Lloyd S. Berkett Insurance Agency, Inc. was founded in 1946 by Lloyd S. Berkett. Regarded as one of Southern California’s most successful, well-respected and innovative independent insurance agencies, we have never lost sight of how important the relationship is between ourselves and our clients. Our dedication to our clients is our greatest asset. This philosophy has enabled us to grow substantially during the first 50 years of our existence and positions us to continue profitably in the 21st century.
The Team
We maintain a professionally trained staff to accomplish the goal of obtaining the greatest possible protection at competitive rates for our clients. In addition, we have a full claims department to assure that claims are handled promptly and efficiently. We offer a broad range of services through our individual departments for Business & Commercial Lines, Personal Lines and Benefits. Through coordination with other financial services professionals we provide our clients with a complete spectrum of financial products to protect themselves and their assets. As part of our commitment to solve our clients’ problems, we extend our services beyond insurance to include comprehensive business consulting services.
The Process
As independent agents and brokers we represent carriers worldwide, enabling us to provide a wide range of coverage options for our clients. We generally restrict placements only to those insurers with an acceptable Best Rating and with reputations to back that financial strength with superior service. We currently insure in excess of $1 billion in real estate holdings throughout the United States, and represent an array of prestigious clients.
We are proud of the reputation we have cultivated with our insurance carriers, and especially with our underwriters. We work with our carriers to maintain long standing relationships with our underwriters. We have found that this provides a stable and profitable underwriting environment for our clients, carriers and the agency. We have a 98% client retention rate and still insure some of the first clients written by the agency in 1946.
Whatever your problem, Berkett is your solution.
