Jeff Gerrick, Broker    

Professional Underwriters of Arizona is an insurance agency and surplus lines brokerage specializing in professional liability insurance for Architects, Engineers, Surveyors, Landscape Architects, Hydrologists, Geologists, Environmental Consultants, Golf Course Designers, Interior Designers, Construction Managers and Real Estate Agents.

Originally located in Phoenix, Professional Underwriters of Arizona, Inc. began in 1980 as an insurance agency and surplus lines brokerage specializing in professional liability (malpractice) for Architects, Engineers and other registered professionals. Jeff Gerrick has been the only managing general partner since inception.

Under Jeff's direction, the business has grown and is now involved, with the help of a local insurance attorney, in conducting seminars for Architects and Engineers. Their Survival Course for Design Professionals has helped many local professionals to better understand risk management concepts.

Contract review is also a complimentary service the agency provides. Jeff's experience in explaining contracts has enabled his clients to better avoid contractual language for which there is no insurance coverage.

The agency also provides a range of insurance coverages for business clients including not only office and work comp protection, but also bonds, employers liability and commercial auto. And, coverage is placed only with carriers rated A or better.

Please contact us today for more information on how we may help you with your insurance needs.
