"Spataro is well-regarded for their professional standard of service, solid market relationships and depth of expertise," said J Patrick Gallagher, Jr., chairman, president and CEO. "Their geographic presence and emphasis on niche specialisations will be an excellent complement to our Northeastern operations. We are extremely pleased to welcome Matthew and his colleagues to our growing Gallagher family of professionals."
