Company

When Associated Underwriters, Inc. was founded in 1995, our goal was to:

1. Develop programs and benefits for independent contractors, owner operators and small fleet owners that would allow them to take advantage of large numbers as if they were part of a large corporation, and have available the benefits that are available to large corporations at the cost that large numbers allow. And,

2. Develop a complete line of insurance products for the trucker and their truck.

3. Develop for the motor carrier:
a) Products that allow the carrier to keep Independent Contractors, Owner Operators, and Contract Drivers at a business' arm's length distance that is required by the IRS.

b.) Relieve the carrier from the responsibility of providing workers' compensation and truck insurance to the independent contractor, owner operator and / or employees of small fleet owners, and

c.) Provide appropriate protection in the event the independent contractor, owner operator, or contract driver tries to be deemed as an employee of the motor carrier.

With our continued growth, Associated Underwriters, Inc. services these various association members from five offices: our administrative office in Harlingen, TX; our underwriting office in Gouldbusk, TX; and our marketing offices in Norristown, PA, Little Rock, AR and Dallas, TX. Today, our offices support a growing staff and ever-increasing nationwide representation that services our thousands of association members utilizing our wide variety of benefit programs.
