Our story

Three generations of looking out for people.

Founded in 1953, Novak Insurance has grown from a local agency into one of the country’s larger independent, family‑owned brokerages — a white‑glove boutique firm that never lost the personal service that built it.

Independent & family‑owned

One of the largest privately owned boutique agencies in the country.

Novak has the scale and carrier relationships of a national brokerage — yet we’re 100% family‑owned and family‑run. We’ve never sold to private equity or any other insurance broker. That independence is the whole point: no corporate quotas, no conflicts — just a white‑glove team that answers to you.

Why independent matters

We answer to you, not a single carrier.

    Choice

    We shop many top carriers and place you where the fit is best.

  • 02

    Advocacy

    At claim time we’re on your side of the table, not the carrier’s.

  • 03

    Continuity

    The same people, year after year — relationships, not transactions.
