AJG acquires broker

Arthur J. Gallagher (AJG) has acquired broker Everett James, located in Ridgefield, Connecticut.

Established in 1990, Everett James offers employee benefits consulting and brokerage services primarily for their large and middle-market clients in the Northeast.

It specialises in group health and welfare consulting for both private and public entity organizations with an emphasis on planning, design, implementation, cost containment and plan administration services.

Robert McDonald, Steve Rinaldi and their associates will continue to operate in their current location under the direction of David Ziegler, head of Gallagher's Eastern employee benefit consulting and brokerage operations.

"For over 24 years, Everett James has developed a solid reputation for their experience, industry knowledge and solid market relationships," said J. Patrick Gallagher, chairman, president and chief executive officer of AJG.

"This firm's consistent growth is a tribute to their entrepreneurial culture and their team-based focus on client service. They will be a wonderful complement to our employee benefits team, and we are pleased to welcome Bob, Steve and their team to our growing Gallagher family of professionals."
