Our Heritage

Joe Charlie Stan Colligan Collage

Founded in 1929 our personal and professional commitment continues to this day as we serve individuals, families, and businesses in Indiana, Michigan, and Ohio.  Colligan’s independence allows our clients to be the priority. It is a competitive agency advantage that creates multiple options and leads to long term relationships.  As a locally owned agency we are focused on making our community stronger by creating real value and peace of mind that comes from not only having an “insurance agent near me” but also in having a trusted adviser.

Joseph Colligan started the Colligan & Company journey in 1929.  Two of his sons also gave their working careers to the agency.  Charlie joined in 1957 and Stan joined in 1967 to bring a continuous 88 years of service from the Colligan family.  Together, the Colligan’s created a relational culture of professionalism, loyalty, and trust.

The Colligan’s developed a business ethic that continues to run deep in our agency to do business honestly and ethically with a constant pursuit to improve the quality of our products, services, and operations.  Colligan & Company has now been entrusted to two Hyde brothers, Joel who joined the agency in 2006 and Jeremy in 2016, to carry on this very culture and the tradition of being a local, family-owned insurance agency.  Contact us today and see that we are more than an “insurance agent near me.”
