I'm Derek Maddox — an independent agent helping families and business owners find coverage that fits their life, not the other way around. No pressure, no jargon, no captive carrier bias.
"Protection and advice, in plain English."

After nearly a decade in the industry, I decided to build my practice around a simple idea: the person selling financial services shouldn't be the one who benefits most from it.
As an independent agency, our focus is on your plan. We shop the market on your behalf, translate the fine print into plain English, and stay in your corner long after the policy is issued.
When I'm not meeting with clients you'll find me coaching my kids' soccer team, enjoying a good cup of coffee somewhere, or taking care of my 10 acre paradise.
Every plan starts with a conversation — no application, no credit pull, no obligation.
