Today, Ãrachas Group is “Working as Oneâ€.
Ãrachas Leadership - William Sullivan (Sullivan & Associates – Insurance & Risk Management) | Kevin Lesch (Bartlett Insurance Group) | Greg Mattingly (Executive & Global, proud member of Ãrachas Group) | and Dallas Peters (formerly of Critchell-Miller & Petrus), all began their insurance careers at a very young age. They all had aspirations of owning their own agency someday, but who knew their lives would cross and Ãrachas Group would be born!
A little history:
Sullivan & Associates – Insurance & Risk Management and Bartlett Insurance Group got their start in the 1970’s, each a small but dedicated family business. Sullivan & Associates realized the growth opportunities available in niche marketing (including Executive & Global and Transportation Insurance Solutions), while Bartlett Insurance Group grew steadily by focusing on small commercial, middle market business, as well as their own niche of auto repair, service station and mini-mart business. This was all in addition to developing a solid personal lines book of business.
Critchell-Miller’s history goes back a little bit further…They got their start in June of 1868 (you read that right) and was once recognized as the largest insurance brokerage house in the world. This agency was also the first to issue a claim check to cover losses from the disastrous, but world-famous Chicago Fire of 1871!
While Critchell-Miller has the longest history, Bartlett Insurance Group and Sullivan & Associates have a rich history of their own, in their own right. So it just made sense to merge these three successful agencies! Bringing all this experience together, creates an entity that has all the expertise that you would ever need in an insurance and risk management agency. Not only have these Trusted Choice agencies merged to form one big “super agencyâ€, but Ãrachas Group has been accepted as a member of Keystone Insurers Group.
This formation combines efforts to further strengthen the Ãrachas Group name and position in the insurance and risk management industry, while opening up greater avenues to better serve our client!
Sullivan & Associates – Bartlett Insurance Group – Critchell-Miller…merged together and now…“Working as Oneâ€.
Ãrachas Group also offers multi-lingual communications, including English, Russian, Polish and Spanish.
