MEMBER PROFILE – ASSOCIATE
How important is industry experience?
Because of the nature of our business, the exposures we face are
often more involved than those of many other businesses. We work
within an environment that is challenging, constantly changing and
highly regulated. The risks to employees, equipment, property, the
environment and ultimately our families and assets are very real.
As PDCA members, the advantages of working with individuals
who know our industry and speak our language are also very real.
What kind of experience are we talking about?
The team at John B. Wright provides guidance and coverage to a
diverse group of contractors, from those specializing in the reconstruction
of storm-damaged homes, to those whose projects are
large in scale. The types of coverage they regularly deal with can
range from general liability to pollution insurance and everything
in between.

Over the years, we have all heard stories of families and businesses
that have experienced losses only to learn after the fact that
their insurance coverage was inadequate. In such cases, the consequences
are often far-reaching and long lasting. John B. Wright’s
business model is designed to identify, monitor and manage loss
exposure as one’s business and family needs change. The firm goes
beyond the obligatory annual renewal notice. Their methodology
involves the review and reevaluation of your coverage on a regular
basis. Their approach is all about maintaining current information
on the families, businesses and industries they insure. The firm’s
membership in trade organizations, such as PDCA, only serves to
further enhance their knowledge of industry-related exposures and
government regulations.
“We see our clients as family, and as such, our responsibility to
each and every one of them is to make absolutely certain they are
prepared before a need arises,” said company spokesperson and president,
Gregory Wright. “The only way of achieving that is by staying
close to our clients. We don’t write policies and disappear. Our team
stays engaged year-round. Regular service calls are scheduled to
make certain everyone is fully covered in the event of an unforeseen
accident or random event. On behalf of our clients, we also continue
to monitor the market to make absolutely sure their policies
represent the best available value. It is a level of service that has set
us apart, and remains an important factor in our ongoing success.”
When was the last time your policies were analyzed?

everyone’s situation is unique, the process at John B. Wright begins
with a conversation, followed by a comprehensive analysis of your
