"We have used Ragland, Strother & Lafitte for all of our commercial insurance needs for decades, not merely years. Everyone there, from the partners to the receptionist knows us personally and they understand our business needs. Given the high level of expertise and the personal attention we receive, I can't imagine using any other insurance provider."

"I think of John as my personal agent, always looking out for my best interests. He does the research, gives me the recommendations and gives me the pros and cons of everything. A lot of firms just give you a quote and a couple of forms to fill out but Ragland, Strother & Lafitte really helps us make the right decision for our business, our employees and our customers."

--Commercial Property client


"When we were looking into our insurance needs, Ragland, Strother & Lafitte impressed us by the way they were so open and honest. They told us what we needed, what we didn't need and what coverage would give us the best overall value. Instead of trying to sell us a bunch of stuff we didn't need, they protected us while looking out for our budget at the same time. We highly recommend them."

--Consulting firm


"There are plenty of people that know film production and there are plenty of people that understand insurance but Surry Shaffer is the only person I know of that knows both. He is an expert in our industry and is always able to give us the customized coverage we need. We're usually doing things at the last minute and Surry is always responsive. Given the complexity of our business, I wouldn't trust it to anyone else."
