A medical malpractice wholesale broker for commercial agents.
Specialized service from a team who understand your market. Medical malpractice is an extremely specialized area — where personal relationships with carriers, not scale, get your client the best result.
Bigger is not better.
Medical malpractice (professional liability) insurance is an extremely specialized area where personal relationships are important. A number of carriers cater to the market, and they all have preferences that change over time. An insurer may offer a great deal today, then next year reduce their exposure in your client's state and put prices up — while another decides to specialize in that market and offers a much better deal.
Westwood Insurance Group is a boutique wholesale brokerage. Medical malpractice insurance is our specialty, and we have our finger on the pulse. We regularly hold video conferences with our carriers and feed that data into an AI-powered system — giving us the ability to quickly source the best coverage for your client, at the best price, while you keep the relationship.

What agents ask us.
What is a medical malpractice wholesale broker?
A broker that places medical malpractice and related liability through retail and commercial agents rather than selling to the insured directly. The agent keeps the client relationship; the wholesaler brings the carrier appointments, the market knowledge and the submission work the agent would otherwise have to build for a class they place only occasionally.
Does Westwood work with the insured directly or only through agents?
Through appointed agents. You place the business and keep the relationship, and your client stays your client. Our job is the market: knowing which carriers want which risks this year and getting your submission in front of them.
Which carriers can Westwood reach?
We are appointed with close to 100 A-rated carriers across admitted and non-admitted markets, so a physician with a clean record and a hard-to-place facility can each go to the paper written for them.
How do you keep track of which carriers want which risks?
We regularly hold video conferences with our carriers and feed what we learn about appetite, policy revisions and pricing into an AI-powered system, so a submission goes to the markets that are actually writing that class and state right now.
