When my grandfather founded this agency in 1937, he built the business on a simple idea: always put the customer first. That principle still guides us today.
Because we are family-owned and independent, we are not tied to any single insurance company. Instead, we work with a wide range of carriers so we can focus on what matters most, finding coverage that truly fits your needs. That independence gives you more choice, more flexibility, and the confidence that your policy is tailored specifically to you.
Family-Owned, Independent, and Proud of It
It also means accountability. Our name is on the door, and our reputation is behind every recommendation we make. When your family name is the same as the agency name, you take that responsibility personally.
We don’t believe insurance should be transactional.
We believe in long-term relationships. Many of our clients have trusted us for decades, and we’re honored to grow alongside the families, businesses, and communities we serve.
Access to Top-Rated Carriers and a Wide Range of Coverage
One of the biggest benefits of working with an independent agency is choice. Murphy represents more than 25 top-rated insurance carriers, giving our clients access to a broad range of coverage options for nearly every stage of life or business.
Home, auto, business, life, condo, renters, boat, umbrella, specialty, and commercial insurance—we handle it all. Because we work with multiple carriers, we can compare options and pricing to help you find the best value, not just the fastest quote.
Insurance isn’t one-size-fits-all. The needs of a first-time homeowner in Groton are very different from those of a contractor in Medway or a restaurant owner in Hudson. Our job is to match the right coverage to your unique risks and help you take advantage of discounts and bundled options whenever possible.
And when life changes, whether it is a new car, a new home, a growing family, or an expanding business, we are here to review and adjust your coverage. Insurance should evolve as your life does, and we are here to guide you along the way.
Personal Guidance, Strong Advocacy, and Local Expertise
Insurance can be complicated, and it’s not always easy to know what you need. That’s why our team is committed to being knowledgeable, approachable, and proactive. Whether you’re reviewing a renewal, buying your first home, or navigating a claim, we take the time to explain your options clearly so you can make informed decisions with confidence.
Advocacy is one of the most important roles we play. When an insurance claim happens, it is about more than paperwork. It is your home, your business, and your livelihood. Our internal claims team works directly on your behalf to help keep things moving, answer your questions, and support you every step of the way. You are never on your own.
Because our team lives and works right here in Massachusetts, we understand the realities of New England living, including winter storms, flooding, coastal exposures, older homes, and regional regulations. That local knowledge helps us recommend the right coverage before issues arise, not after.
At the end of the day, it’s our people who make the difference. Our team genuinely cares about doing the right thing and taking great care of the clients who trust us.
A Relationship—Not Just a Policy
At Murphy Insurance Agency, our goal has always been simple: to be the kind of agency we would want for our own families. That means honest advice, thoughtful coverage recommendations, strong advocacy, and personal attention you can count on.
Whether you’re protecting your home, safeguarding your business, or planning for the future, we’re here to help you feel confident that you have the right coverage—and the right team—when it matters most.
As we wrap up another year, I want to sincerely thank you for the trust you place in our agency. From all of us at Murphy Insurance, we wish you and your loved ones a warm, safe, and happy holiday season.
Thank you for choosing Murphy Insurance Agency.
