Since then I had a chance to meet the rest of the team, excellent service and 100% customer satisfaction. I felt like this is what I was missing in my past insurance company. It was like doing business with your family, people that really care. Thanks Guys and Gals!"
"Mr. Derek Wirz and staff have gone above and beyond, to help provide the highest level of insurance expertise and advisement that I have ever had the pleasure of receiving. They are my trusted advisors for all things P & C related, and I cant say enough good things about them, including their responsiveness, solution suggesting, and finding just the right coverage for my textile business. Matthew Wilson, Wilson & Bow, Custom Ties and Textiles"
"I am writing to recommend the company and services at The Southern Agency, Inc. During the past year, we began our communication and ultimately chose them as our partners as our new Insurance Agency for our Property and Casualty insurance. They cover our 72 Waffle House locations that are part of our Southern Legacy Waffles, LLC Franchise in North Georgia, Chattanooga, Knoxville, Tri-City, and North Carolina territories. I can honestly say that I am more than pleased with their offerings and overall Customer Service as a company. I had worked with Chris Cain for several years when he was worked with our Worker's Comp TPA. Chris made the initial introduction to Derek Wirz and the offerings at The Southern Agency. When Chris joined The Southern Agency, his knowledge of our business needs was a driving force in our decision to make a change. Derek and Chris have given 110% of their time to ensure that we were given the proper coverage and best pricing for our business. Derek and his knowledge of industry is like no other and our team is very impressed as we were making our decision to go with his company. Their attention to detail and immediate response to our needs surpasses all expectations we could have hoped for! If you are looking for a partner that has your best interest and is willing to negotiate strong pricing for your company, then The Southern Agency is where you need to take your business. I look forward to a long partnership."
"Everyone can say they offer great service but I had not ever experienced it, until today - THE GREATEST! Here is my story: Several months ago, I moved my insurance to The Southern Agency and they saved me money; a lot of money. Today a piece of metal came off of a truck and seriously damaged my Toyota Camry. I made one call to The Southern Agency and not only did I have a tow truck to my rescue but I EVEN HAD A RENTAL CAR waiting on me at the body shop. I LOVE THE SOUTHERN AGENCY AGENTS! If you are looking for the best, these guys are it! "
"The Southern Agency handles my insurance and Id recommend discussing your insurance needs with them. Many options! They took great care of me and they will you too!"
"My experience with The Southern Agency has been great! Derek was very thorough in his assessments and made sure we have the coverage that we need. He saved our company thousands and follows up quickly on any questions we have. I highly recommend Derek and his team! Ed Trimner Trimcraft of Ft. Myers"
"Derek and his team provided excellent customer service. They doubled my coverage, solved my insurance problems, made it simple and cut my premium by almost half. I highly recommend The Southern Agency. Mark Turner Ringgold, GA"
" I recently needed a solution for my log cabin home insurance. I researched and came to know Brandon & Derek at The Southern Agency who was able to provide the help and best policy package for me and my family. Highly recommend this team for your insurance plans! "
"Great company. Derek went above and beyond to make sure I had the best coverage at the best price. He was patient in explaining all of the details, not the least bit pushy, and makes himself available for help and guidance should any questions arise. "
