History
Mr. Maurice. J. Schuetz, Sr. began M. J. Schuetz Agency, Inc. in 1943, in downtown Indianapolis, Indiana. Having been a surety bond underwriter for U S F & G for several years, he was used to working with Indiana businesses and individuals. For fourteen years, the agency had one employee (Mr. M. J. Schuetz, Sr.) and one part-time employee (Mrs. M. J. Schuetz, Sr.). This changed in 1957, when their son, Maury (Jr.) joined the agency, and again in 1960, when their son-in-law, DV Pace joined the agency. On January 1, 2012, the agency was purchased by long-term employees Vickie L. Wolcott and David A. Linthicum. At that time, the name was changed to M. J. Schuetz Insurance Services, Inc. Today, M.J. Schuetz employs over 25 individuals with a combined 200+ years of insurance experience.
Specialties
M.J. Schuetz Insurance Services has been bonding and insuring Indiana businesses and individuals for over 75 years. With all of the mergers and acquisitions that have taken place in the past decade, there are fewer and fewer agencies making it to their 75th anniversaries. And very few of the agencies that do make it can claim to have been successful for so long while specializing in one niche. But that's just what we have done since 1943! As an agency, we represent approximately 50 insurance companies for both surety bonds and insurance and take pride in our customer service. Granted, the overall picture is service, value and price. Any agent can put together a program and tell you how cheap and inexpensive it is. Can that agent guarantee top of the line service backed by a staff with hundreds of combined years of experience? Not likely. Our goal for any program is to give you and your company a value driven program with a competitive price. Please give us a call to discuss your insurance needs.
