The Southern Agency

At The Southern Agency, we don’t just sell insurance—we deliver confidence. Built on the principle “Create great policies with great carriers at competitive rates,” we take the time to understand your unique risks and craft coverage that truly protects what matters most.
Founded by Derek Wirz in 2015, we’ve redefined the insurance process with The Southern Agency Underwriting Narrative—a method that makes sure that businesses get a “top of the stack” application, giving underwriters a clear, compelling picture of their needs. For personal insurance, we take the same meticulous approach, designing policies that respond when life hits hardest.
Many agents cut corners. We don’t. Our 10 P Underwriting Narrative Process uncovers key risks others miss, making sure you’re not just insured—you’re truly protected. With The Southern Agency, you get a partner who advocates for you, fights for the best coverage, and makes sure you never feel lost in the fine print.
Insurance shouldn’t be a guessing game. Let’s get it right—together.
