JKJ Merges with Witherspoon on Scuba and Marine Insurance
Johnson, Kendall & Johnson, an insurance brokerage firm, has merged with Tennessee-based Witherspoon & Associates to offer expanded coverage for the marine and scuba industry, the company announced.
The merger will extend programs for individual professional liability, dive facilities, dive vessels, dive equipment manufacturers, and boats and vessels. Comprehensive insurance coverage is often required in the marine and scuba industry due to the unique set of risks that can occur as the result of scuba diving accidents, JKJ said.
JKJ, based in Newtown, Pennsylvania, has focused on property and casualty insurance, both personal and corporate, health insurance, financial services, retirement planning, deferred compensation, life insurance, and disability insurance. Witherspoon, headquartered in Brentwood, Tennessee, has offered a full line of scuba-related insurance.
