Ballard Agency

We have been serving customers since the Ballard Agency was founded in 1963, bringing over six decades of insurance expertise. Our agency remains family owned and operated, ensuring a personal touch in every client relationship. We have been led by owner Chris Ballard, who has been a licensed insurance agent for nearly two decades and purchased the agency from his father in 2001. Our leader's deep industry knowledge and leadership have earned him respect as a trusted insurance professional. We work with quality carriers such as Chubb, Safeco, CNA, Hartford, Oregon Mutual, Hanover, and Travelers to tailor coverage precisely to your needs. We leverage this broad carrier access to design policies for personal lines, small locally owned businesses, venturebacked startups, and large national accounts.

Regardless of company size, we provide customized solutions that address unique risks and coverage gaps. Our expert agents conduct onsite risk assessments to identify exposures and recommend effective riskmanagement strategies. We specialize in serving the construction, food & beverage, and hospitality industries, offering targeted policies for each sector. For breweries and brewpubs, we provide dedicated risk management and insurance through our BeerInsurance.com platform. Above all, we remain committed to advocating for our clients before, during, and after their policies are written, helping them navigate uncertainty with confidence.
