About Shepherd Insurance
From our humble beginnings in Carmel, Indiana in 1977 to today, Shepherd Insurance has grown into one of the Top 50 largest independent insurance agencies in the country.
We provide insurance & employee benefit solutions throughout the country and have received numerous awards for our growth, leadership and our amazing workplace culture.
Dave Shepherd started Shepherd Insurance in 1977. With the encouragement of his father, Bill Shepherd, he began selling life insurance soon after graduating from the University of Mississippi. From there, he expanded the business to include personal and business insurance solutions. Throughout the years, Shepherd has added employee benefits and financial services to continue to meet the needs of their clients. In addition to business line growth, Shepherd has added over 35 agencies to the Shepherd family and continues to look for independent agencies that operate on the same principles in order to continue to serve our clients and the communities in which we operate.
For over 45 years, Shepherd Insurance has been providing risk management solutions for the unique situations in life. As one of the 50 largest independent insurance agencies in the country, we have access to over 200 insurance carriers that will build custom insurance coverages, just for you! We strive to protect our clients from the unexpected and offer a wide variety of insurance and services tailored to meet your current and future needs.
Our Sarasota office joined the Shepherd Insurance team in 2016, becoming our first location in Florida. Formerly serving as Al Purmort Insurance, the team has been serving Sarasota and the surrounding communities for over 35 years as one of the largest and most respected independent insurance agencies in all of Florida.
We are proud to be partnered with the strongest and most stable carriers in the industry, who consistently deliver unparalleled support to both our agency and, most importantly, our clients.
