Service

Our insurance professionals have a strong passion for insurance and protecting what you value most in business and in life. We treat our customers like family.

Thomas Burgin, mayor of Quincy and Massachusetts Congressman, founded our Agency in 1925. Joined by Nelford Platner in 1930, Burgin Platner and Company quickly became a leading South Shore insurance agency. A merger in 1996 with Quincy neighbor, The Hurley Agency, completed the formation of our agency today. We believe it fitting that Quincy, the birthplace of two American presidents, is our hometown. Our legacy of pride and tradition is symbolized by this history and is a source of comfort and pride.

At Burgin Platner and Company we work with a wide variety of individuals and businesses throughout the South Shore and Greater New England Area, specializing in Auto Insurance, Home Insurance, Business Insurance and Boat Insurance.

We’re an independent insurance agency offering a comprehensive suite of insurance solutions to protect your business and your life from the unexpected. We don’t just sell insurance. We work closely with clients to help them make important and informed decisions every day when it comes to protection and their future.

Because we’re independent, our priority is you – not the insurance company. We represent many different insurance companies which offer a wide variety of coverage options and price points. Our goal is to deliver the right blend of price, coverage and service.

Our insurance professionals make it their business to know your world inside and out. They are there to help you through all the changes in your life and your business, whether you’re going from renting an apartment to buying a home, adding a partner to your business, getting married, renovating your home, adding a teen driver to your auto policy or revamping your employee benefits plan.
