About

Recognizing a growing industry need for creative problem solving and outside-the-box thinking, Dave Poms founded Poms & Associates in 1991. For more than 30 years, the company grew carefully and deliberately, opening branch offices strategically located to serve Poms' clients. Since our inception, Poms' commitment to guiding clients through an informed and comprehensive purchasing process has remained constant. With a focus on controlled growth, Poms maintains the highest caliber of customer service, allowing us to foster long and productive relationships with every client. Every Poms broker is committed to their clients' best interests, without exception. That's the Poms & Associates difference.

The best insurance? Knowledge

Poms & Associates is committed to the philosophy that knowledge is the best insurance.

Our practices are transparent, and our goal is simple: giving every client the knowledge, time, products and services necessary to limit their exposure and expand their opportunities.
