Insurance is not straight forward, it is a technical purchase, it is important to know who you are partnering with to assure you are correctly protected.

Samuel is an Equity Partner at Sihle Insurance Group. He is a fifth generation Floridian and has had business in his blood for even longer. This is the reason he is so passionate about his community and the protection of the businesses that are an integral part.

Samuel enjoys getting to know his insureds and their businesses.

"Without thoroughly understanding a business and it's owners goals, how can you begin to understand what proper coverage is needed?"

Sam and his counterparts at Sihle Insurance Group are independent agents.

What is an independent agent?

Independent insurance agent represent multiple, and typically several insurance carriers, unlike agents that represent a single carrier.

Why this is important to you:

• As the definition of independent insurance agents suggest, working with an independent agent provides options. We have several carriers that allow for us to provide tailored, comprehensive, coverage at competitive rates. One size doesn't fit all.

• Insurance coverage streamlined. An independent agent should be a one-stop-shop for all of your insurance related needs. At Sihle we are just that. Sam's counterparts offer: bonds, home, personal auto, benefits, and even health insurance.

• Having the ability to provide coverage with different carriers allows us to be more of a consultant or trusted advisor on your behalf. Insurance agents are licensed experts. Multiple carriers allows for the flexibility to provide the best choice for your unique company.

• Service. An independent agent should be more than a provider of a policy but someone to represent your interest in the case of a claim or even a billing issue. Don't we have enough on our plates?

• Long-term partnership. As you and your business grow, we will continue to have comprehensive, competitive solutions for all of your needs.
