Buffalo-based independent agency Lawley has acquired Connecticut-based Shoff Darby Companies, Inc., in what Lawley says is it largest acquisition to date.
Lawley will add four locations and 75 employees in Connecticut, as well as increase insurance and benefit products and services available to clients.
“We were determined to remain part of an independent, community-oriented organization, and we could not be happier for our staff, our clients, and our communities that we were able to forge this partnership with Lawley,” said William Pierz, chairman of Shoff Darby.
Lawley has a team of more than 500 associates offering property, casualty, surety, and benefits insurance programs. It has branch offices across New York in Batavia, Dunkirk, Jamestown, Mahopac, Purchase, Rochester, Uniondale, West Seneca, and Williamsville, along with Darien, Connecticut, and Florham Park, New Jersey.
Founded in 1887, Shoff Darby has offices in Norwalk, Shelton, Stamford, and North Haven, and is one of the largest independent insurance agencies in Connecticut.
