Mountain View, Calif.-based Lawson-Hawks Insurance Associates Inc., a regional independent insurance broker, has acquired J6 Insurance Services, Inc of Rocklin, Calif. in an asset purchase arrangement. The terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
John Miller, CEO of Lawson Hawks Insurance, said, “While we have extended our Sacramento presence greatly in the last five years, the acquisition of J6 provides us not only with a formidable addition to our current construction and environmental risk management practice groups, but brings to LHI some very experienced and knowledgeable professional staff and brokers.”
