“Matthew - Thank you for coming up with RLI as an alternate. With our old carrier I was about to throw in the towel and go pump gas or something instead of practicing architecture. It is getting really crazy out there. We have enjoyed working with you and look forward to continuing our relationship.”
Tim Eagles, EDM Services Inc.

“We have worked with Matthew Copus since 2003 regarding our E & O insurance, and have found him to be very professional, and extremely efficient in providing annual quotes in a very timely manner. He has been very patient with the many questions that arise from contracts and the task of completing the annual E&O applications.

Several years ago, Donna Jansen encouraged us to consider transferring our business owner’s policy as well. This year our existing policy was reviewed. Donna suggested helpful changes that would provide better coverage for the existing policy, and provided some other quotes. As a result of her consistent follow up and recommendations, the policy was recently transferred.

We now have two great working relationships at Hall and Company! Thank you for the awesome customer service! It is a pleasure to work with you both.”
Cooki Campbell, Associated Project Consultants, Inc. P. S.

Based upon your responsiveness over the past 10-years or so to my many phone calls, questions, etc., I naturally assumed that our firm was your only client! Here’s to yet another great year for both of us!”
