We believe that your broker truly matters.

Lemme is often asked to save the day when other brokers come up short. We thrive on this type of challenge, almost without exception identifying alternatives and negotiating winning solutions. Our long-term relationships and understanding of professional services firms give us the access to choices other brokers don’t have.

Before Lemme, we were a dedicated and experienced group of professionals at some of the largest firms in the insurance, brokerage and professional service markets.

Our backgrounds provided vast experience and insight in to the brokerage, underwriting, and professional service communities. We enjoyed the professional liability business yet we were at a crossroads. We knew we could do more for our clients by creating an organization that put the client first.

If we got it right, we would find deeper professional and personal satisfaction by creating our own team. Therefore, in 1998 we turned our shared vision into a reality and became Lemme Insurance Group, Inc.

Since this time our business has thrived, growing our client list and building our internal talents, resources and experiences. It was the right decision for us and for our clients. We are proud of the work we do, on behalf of our clients and on behalf of the professional services community.

As our firm grows, we will not compromise the basic premise upon which Lemme was founded: Our client’s best interests serve our best interests. We accomplish our goals through dedication to our clients, constant interaction with the markets, and hard work.

The results speak for themselves. Nearly a third of the nation’s 100 largest public accounting firms team with Lemme to find professional liability solutions. Law firms across the country leverage our knowledge and relationships to help them secure the right coverage. Consulting firms, with expertise ranging from strategy to information technology, rely on Lemme to ensure their policies grant the coverage needed for their specific practice areas.

Beyond any numbers, however, lies the reality that we have to prove our value to clients every day. We take great pride in the work we do, the people on our team, and in the clients we represent. We work hard, but with a smile and professionalism for both our clients and our competitors. We thank our clients for their continued trust, and look forward to expanding our business with an unwavering commitment to our principles.

Each day we work to maintain and build upon our commitment to our values:

LEADERSHIP
Leadership is often referred to but not always found in everyday practice. Lemme believes leadership is a practice as much as it is a value. It comes from our creative spirit and energy, our ability to be innovative in meeting the needs of our clients. With leadership, however, comes the responsibility of ensuring we balance the need to take risks with the view that tomorrow is as important as today. The Lemme team of professionals understands this and because of our entrepreneurial spirit and vision, we make it happen.

ETHICS
Ethical practice is achieved only by developing close personal relationships and by holding ourselves to the highest standards. Without exception, we put our clients needs first. We are not a faceless, bureaucratic organization where interactions are dictated by call center volumes and quarterly profit targets. Our most valued clients were at one point strangers, whose trust we have earned over many years and countless conversations. This is how we will build your trust. You will see that we work with the utmost integrity not only in meeting the needs of our clients but also in the way we will never sacrifice our values.

MARKETING
Marketing is not just a tool or strategy at our group. Marketing means building networks and relationships that yield dividends in both soft and hard insurance markets. Relationships that help ensure the management of risk becomes less of a concern in how you conduct your business. We at Lemme possess the marketing reach and intelligence that is so important to ensure our clients remain informed of the latest developments within this ever-changing marketplace.

MENTORING
Mentoring is a forgotten art and responsibility. Our group believes to be successful, we have a duty to pass on from one to another the wisdom and experience gained through close alliances with our clients and insurance underwriting community. We look to our clients and the insurers we do business with to guide us with information about their needs. Mentoring is this interactive process, combining our expertise and vision with the information about the needs of our clients, the insurance community and the different generations within our own group.

EXCELLENCE
Excellence is a destination that we always seek but never reach. We have an ideal of where we want to be as an enterprise and it forms an integral part of every project we undertake. We see excellence as a constant challenge to deliver on our commitment to be innovative, to work with honesty and integrity, and to end each day with the conviction that we have improved as an organization.
