Our story is yours.

Bennett & Porter Private Client was built out of self-preservation. As our assets grew and our needs changed, we discovered a void in private client insurance and services, so we set out to amend it.

Founders Jack Bennett and Scott Porter spent nearly three decades in wealth management and insurance, managing hundreds of loyal clients with varying needs. Bennett & Porter Private Client was established as a new division catering to the evolving needs of our most affluent clients. The pillars of our private client insurance solutions are crafted from personal experience backed by industry expertise. We provide our clients with advice, insight, and opportunities that have first proven successful in our personal lives.

Our team-based approach to insurance services and risk management means that several senior advisors work together to make sure that each client gets the most proactive, efficient, and strategic policy possible. We pride ourselves on expedited resolutions and a highly-responsive level of old-fashioned concierge service that provides support and compassion when it matters most.
