Lane & Associates is Now Writing in Mississippi

Lane & Associates is proud to announce that we are now writing in Mississippi! 

For years, we have worked alongside independent agents across the Gulf South by providing dependable market access, responsive underwriting and personalized service. Expanding into Mississippi is a natural next step for our team and one we are excited to take.

We understand the unique challenges agencies face throughout our region. Coastal exposures, evolving property risks and specialized liability placements all require experience and strong carrier relationships. Our goal is simple: to help agents secure solutions quickly and confidently. 

Mississippi agents now have access to a broad range of products through Lane & Associates, including: 

Whether you need support on a straightforward submission or a difficult placement, our underwriting team is ready to help move your accounts forward. 

Join Us in Mississippi This June

Supporting independent agents has always been important to our team, which is why we were proud to participate in InsurCon 2026 as a Bronze Sponsor.

The event provided a great opportunity to connect with insurance professionals from across Mississippi, learn more about the challenges agencies are facing and share how Lane & Associates can help agents access the markets and coverage solutions they need. We enjoyed meeting new agency partners, strengthening existing relationships and discussing opportunities to support continued growth throughout the state.

As we expand our presence in Mississippi, we’re grateful for the warm welcome we received at InsurCon and look forward to building lasting partnerships with agencies across the Magnolia State.

Built on Relationships

At Lane & Associates, we believe strong partnerships still matter. Agencies deserve a wholesale partner that communicates clearly, responds quickly and stays accessible throughout the process. 

That approach has guided our team for years and it remains central to how we serve agents today. We are excited to begin working with agencies across Mississippi and look forward to building long-term relationships throughout the state.
