Aldrich & Cox, Inc. provides independent, fee-based Risk Management, Insurance and Employee Benefit Consulting services to a wide range of clientele. The firm is a member of the Crain Langner & Co. Group which has offices in Cleveland, Chicago and Buffalo. A&C is completely independent and has no ties with any agents, brokers or insurance companies. We do not sell insurance. We help design and manage or oversee, risk management and insurance programs for our clients. We are viewed as a valuable resource to our clients when it comes to their risk management and insurance programs. A&C is a member of the Society of Risk Management Consultants, a society dedicated to the furtherance of true, independent Risk Management consulting. Since we do not sell insurance and are not affiliated with anyone who does, our recommendations are made solely with our clients' best interests in mind. Commission income from the sale of insurance or the potential loss thereof can easily cloud the issues concerning the best way to treat specific loss exposures. Recommendations concerning what exposures should be insured, what insurers should be used, what retention levels should be considered, or what broker services should be rendered can only be made by an independent consultant.
