What is a wholesale insurance brokerage?

A wholesale insurance brokerage acts as the intermediary between retail agents and specialty insurance carriers. NeitClem provides retail agents access to excess & surplus (E&S) lines markets, covering hard-to-place, high-risk, or non-standard accounts that admitted carriers typically decline. We handle the carrier negotiations and placement so agents can focus on serving their clients.

Who can submit business to NeitClem?

We work exclusively with licensed retail insurance agents and brokers. If you hold a valid California insurance license, you are eligible to submit risks directly to our brokerage team for quoting and placement. We do not transact directly with the insured public.

How do I submit a risk for a quote?

Use NeitClem's proprietary online application platform to submit your risk in minutes. No downloads, no email attachments, instant confirmation. Simply select the coverage type, complete the form, and a real broker will review your submission and respond promptly. For urgent placements, call (323) 258-2600.

What types of risks do you specialize in?

We specialize in excess & surplus (E&S) lines across four core areas: Casualty (Commercial General Liability, OCP, wrap-ups, excess & umbrella), Professional Liability (E&O, medical malpractice, EPLI, D&O, fiduciary liability), Property & Inland Marine (builder's risk, cargo, vacant property, jeweler's block, crime), and Specialty Markets (cannabis, bars & restaurants, wellness centers, environmental, garage liability).

What carriers do you have access to?

We maintain relationships with a broad panel of A-rated admitted and non-admitted carriers, giving us the flexibility to find competitive solutions across a wide range of risk classes. Our long-standing carrier relationships, built over 30+ years, allow us to negotiate favorable terms on behalf of our agents.

How long does it take to receive a quote?

For standard submissions with complete information, agents can typically expect a response within 1 to 3 business days. Complex or high-value risks may take longer. Providing complete, accurate application data is the single biggest factor in faster turnaround.

Is NeitClem licensed and compliant in California?

Yes. NeitClem Wholesale Insurance Brokerage, Inc. is fully licensed and compliant with California surplus lines regulations. Our California Insurance License number is #0E24609. We are active members of WSIA, CIWA, and NAGA.

How do I become an appointed agent with NeitClem?

Complete our Become an Agent form online and our team will review your application and get you set up. Once appointed, you can begin submitting business immediately and gain full access to our carrier panel. Call (323) 258-2600 or email QuoteNow@neitclem.com.
