About.
INSPIRED BY DIFFERENCE.
We are built on the principles of providing superior customer service and quality insurance solutions for our customers.
Rick Skipworth has been in the business selling all lines of insurance since 1982. He was appointed with Nationwide Insurance and built an agency that was profitable for both the agency and the companies until he sold the personal lines to concentrate on Commercial Insurance and Financial Products. Our truly dedicated staff consists of Melinda Skipworth – commercial agent, Pam Thomas – commercial customer service representative, Ashley Wilkerson – commercial service and Shane McGinley – Commercial and Financial agent.
We spend the time to learn about you, your business and your concerns; then address them with a wide array of companies and policies tailored to fit your needs. We want to earn your business and your referrals.

INSURANCE LINES.
Cyber.
LIABILITY.
Cyber liability insurance provides coverage to help protect businesses from data breaches and other cyber security issues. In todays world it is no longer a question of “if” your organization will suffer a breach, but rather “when.” At Skipworth we have access to multiple carriers with a slew of cyber insurance options which provide access to tools and resources to manage and mitigate cyber risk both pre and post breach.
01. IDENTIFY RISKS.
Your risk assessment must take into consideration internal, external, industry and geographic factors in order to properly structure your coverage.
02. COVERAGES.
All cyber policies are not created equally, and you don’t want to find out too late that something is not covered. Know what is included, and what is excluded before there is a problem.
03. RESPONSE.
When an attack or breech is discovered response time is critical. Having the right team behind you to shut down access and perform a forensic investigation is vital.
Skills.
RESULTS DRIVEN DESIGN.
Each and every year, we reassess our clients businesses to make sure that we have the right coverages in place, then go out and shop the policies with the carriers we believe will have the best price this year. Our tenor in the industry gives us the relationships we need to get the job done.
THE CLIENT MUST COME FIRST.
As a third generation family owned and operated agency, we have known for a very long time that customer service comes first. Whether you need a certificate issued, need to report a claim, or just have a some questions we are here for you.
Carriers.
ONLY THE BEST.
As independent agents we are able to pick and choose which carriers to work with. This allows us to hunt for the best carriers, with the best prices, serving niche markets.
Here are just a few of our favorites:
