Higginbotham, a company offering insurance, financial and HR services, has partnered with Cincinnati-based Roehr Insurance, expanding its operational reach within the US Midwest.  

The collaboration aims to enhance the support system for both operators’ clientele and workforce. 

Higginbotham has been actively pursuing growth opportunities in key regions, with the Midwest being a focal area.  

Chairman and CEO of Higginbotham, Rusty Reid, noted the alignment of both companies in terms of client commitment and community engagement. 

Roehr Insurance was established by CEO Alvin Roehr in 2012.  

It provides a range of services including various types of insurance and risk management solutions.  

The partnership is set to enhance the service offerings to these accounts and create a stronger support network for clients and employees, drawing on the combined expertise and resources of both companies.  

Roehr Insurance president Carmine DiLonardo stated: “Partnering with Higginbotham gives us the ability to go after specialties and markets that were previously out of reach for us due to our size. We are excited to tap into Higginbotham’s expertise and support services to now be able to go after those accounts. 

“On top of that, their training programmes will help us grow from the inside, developing new producers and giving our team the tools to go even further. That combination of resources and support made Higginbotham a clear choice for us.” 

Alvin Roehr said: “We built this firm on relationships – with our clients, our team and our community – and that is what has fuelled our growth. We have never acquired another agency, yet we have averaged more than 20% organic growth over the past five years. Every bit of that has come from doing right by the people we serve and earning their trust, year after year.” 

Higginbotham recently partnered with Program Insurance Group of Georgetown, Texas, known for EZ CERT, a nationally utilised insurance certificate tracking service.
