Mission Statement

At Albertson Barlow Insurance Services we help people manage the risks in life in order to secure a position that allows for a fast and easy recovery from unexpected incidents. We are committed to providing our clients with exceptional coverage and superior service.

History

In 1991, Albertson Insurance Services was founded by Owner, Scott Albertson. After 16 years of selling life and health insurance, Scott identified that his clients needed the convenience of a full-service insurance agency where his clients would have access to all lines of insurance. Therefore, in 2007 Tye Barlow of Barlow Insurance Services joined forces with Scott in order to offer property and casualty insurance to Scott’s extensive client list. Together they have been providing clients with exceptional coverage in all lines of insurance.

In their mutual collaboration, Albertson Barlow Insurance Services retain their independent office status; Scott in life and health and Tye in property and casualty.
