Independent Risk Management Consultants

Risk Management Analysis, Plans, Strategies and Solutions

As professional Risk Management Consultants, RWL Group recognizes that while every company shares certain similar risks, each company has its own individual exposures. One of the most important assets we bring to the table is our ability to assess your current insurance and risk management programs in their dynamic relationship to your particular operations and management philosophy. In other words, one size does not fit all!

As independent business (commercial) insurance consultants, we have no ties, affiliations or commission arrangements with insurance providers or related services. Our fees come strictly from you, the client; we are licensed to consult on a fee-for-service basis only. This obviously allows our research and recommendations to be truly objective and unbiased. However, because we have no industry ties, we are also empowered to think outside the box, evaluating your actual circumstances and needs as the constant, rather than being constrained to the cookie cutter approach preferred by any single provider.
