Deep South originated as a single office in Shreveport, Louisiana in 1967. The phenomenal growth and success of Deep South over the past decade facilitated the expansion into what is now a multi-state insurance industry leader, with Deep South opening its Denver office in 1999.
Deep South’s Denver office is a full service office providing marketing, underwriting, policy processing, loss control, quality assurance, claims handling and premium audit. The underwriting staff is well qualified, experienced and focused on commercial insurance products. An emphasis is placed on providing all employees and agency personnel with training and continuing education in areas specific to the Deep South book of business.
