Merit Insurance Group

The Flagler Agency came into existence in 1954 when Mr. Allen K. Flagler, Sr. ( Bud ) purchased the Harms Insurance Agency of Dolton, IL. Albert Harms, the previous owner, and Mr. Flagler were extremely good friends. In 1960, Allen K Flagler, Jr. joined the company and has remained ever since, building the agency and moving locations. The original office in in Dolton IL, moved Tinley Park in 2006 and is located at 8041 W. 186th Street. This is on the corner of 80th Avenue and the Route 80 overpass. The office has 10 employees that are all devoted to providing the type of quality insurance service that has allowed The Flagler Agency to grow and sustain itself for so many years. As we advertise... we actually have a live person that answers the phone during office hours. The agency represents several different insurance companies. This allows us flexibility and choice, with price comparisons, as we select a company for one of our insureds. This independent agency concept is different than the single agent or direct company representation. By comparison, we are able to select the best available plan from several different companies. As mentioned in this website, we firmly believe that creating the proper plan of protection is equally as important as the cost of the insurance ( premium ). The purpose of insurance is to provide protection, in the proper manner, in order to prevent a financial loss.
