About Forbes

Six decades of trust, integrity, and independent advice.

"Forbes Insurance Agency has been protecting the families and businesses of New York and Connecticut since 1965."

Founded by Mr. Alfred J. Forbes, we are a family-owned, independent agency with more than 60 years of experience helping our clients find the right coverage at the right price.

As an independent agency, we are not tied to any single insurance company. We work with many major carriers — which means we work for you. We compare options, tailor coverage to your specific needs, and deliver honest, straightforward advice every step of the way.

When you call Forbes, you speak with someone who knows your name. Our licensed professionals take the time to understand your situation, explain your options clearly, and stand by you when it matters most — at the time of a claim.

We have built our reputation one client at a time, and we intend to keep it that way.
