Brown & Brown Insurance Agency of Georgia, a subsidiary of Brown & Brown, has taken over substantially all of the assets of Manning & Nozick Insurance Agency.

Manning & Nozick offers a wide variety of personal and business insurance products and services to clients in the greater Atlanta area and nationally.

It reported annual revenues of approximately $1.6m.

After the completion of the deal, Manning & Nozick will merge with Brown & Brown’s existing Atlanta offices.

Tim Soriano, president of Brown & Brown Insurance Agency of Georgia, and Barrett Brown, regional president of Brown & Brown, will operate the merged entity.

Soriano said: “Manning & Nozick has been a fixture in the Atlanta brokerage market for many years.  Brian, Robert and Stanley have continued the firm’s commitment to client service during their leadership.  We are excited to bring their experience and knowledge of the needs of the greater Atlanta insurance market into the Brown & Brown team.”

Manning & Nozick president Brian Coffsky said: “We are very excited to join forces with Tim, Barrett and their entire team.  We believe that Brown & Brown’s presence in the Atlanta market, combined with all the resources that Manning & Nozick will now have access to, will allow us to better serve our clients and accelerate the growth of our business.”
