As the Commonwealth of Massachusetts prepares for a phased reopening beginning on Monday, May 18th, we want to inform you there will be no immediate changes to the existing status of Murphy Insurance Agency’s services or hours.

Our team members will continue to be available to assist you by phone and email Monday – Friday, 8:30AM – 4:30PM and on Saturday, 8:30AM – 12:00PM.  All Murphy Insurance office locations will remain closed to visitors until further notice.

We care deeply about the health and safety of our customers, team members, and the community-at-large.  With insurance being identified as an essential business, Murphy Insurance has remained open during this stay-at-home period with members of our staff social distancing at our offices or working remotely.  We are pleased that most needs have been able to be met through online, email, fax, postal mail, and telephone communications; however, we recognize that some needs will require in-person interactions as we return to a greater level of normalcy moving forward.  The Agency is working to establish plans to safely reopen our offices to provide in-person service, and we will keep you informed via updates.

We highly encourage you to utilize our alternative methods to conduct your insurance business that do not require coming inside an office location:
