Integro acquires Design Insurance Agency

Broker Integro has acquired New-York specialist broker Design Insurance Agency.

The broker provides professional liability coverage and risk management services to architects, engineers and other design consultants in private practice.

Founded by Thomas Coghlan in 1984, Design Insurance offers professional liability coverage to licensed design professionals, errors & omissions liability coverage to specialty design and construction consultants, and the accompanying lines of property and casualty coverage design firms need to manage their practices.

Coghlan will continue to lead the Design Insurance team and report to Michael Klaschka, co-head of Integro’s management risk practice in New York.

“Design Insurance adds a new dimension to Integro’s professional liability practice, giving us the capability of providing world-class service to the design professional community, which services the greater construction industry,” Klaschka said. “We are delighted to welcome Tom and his very experienced team of sector experts to the Integro family of specialist companies.”

Coghlan added: “Design Insurance’s mission is to be the design professional’s advocate in procuring the liability coverage they require, and to bring risk and practice management resources to design professional practices. We welcome our new association with Integro and the enhanced capability to expand our coverage and risk management services to our valued clients and the design community at large.”
