Thomas E. Jackson, President and CEO of Pinnacle, announced that Pinnacle has purchased the renewal rights to three of Summit’s specialty programs; ArborMAX, ElectriciansMAX, and PremierMAX. According to Tom, “These programs will become the blueprint for Pinnacle’s success. We expect to form other specialty contractor classes almost immediately with agents who might currently have specialized knowledge within an industry group. We have been very successful working hand-in-hand with our agents. ArborMAX is a great example of a program that was initiated by a successful agent who had specialized knowledge and marketing power within an industry. Pinnacle will draw on additional resources to design coverages, create custom technology solutions, implement loss control programs, and effectively manage claims.”

George C. Hill, CPCU and David O. Daniels, principals of HDR Insurance Services, have agreed to become Executive Vice Presidents and Pinnacle Directors. The combined reputation and expertise of the Pinnacle Management Team will enhance Pinnacle’s ability to deliver A-rated markets that will provide new product lines and programs.

Pinnacle is currently appointing California agents. For more information, please contact Tom Jackson at 702-254-8255 X114 or George Hill at 916-566-1000 X 7102.
