Who We Are

boutique insurance broker specialising in professional indemnity insurance

About Us

Based centrally from offices in the City of Bristol, we are a dynamic boutique insurance broker specialising in professional indemnity insurance for a wide range of professions – but with a particular focus on solicitors, independent financial advisors, insurance intermediaries and property professionals.

We have watched the continued consolidation of the insurance broking space, both nationally and more acutely in the Bristol area by all the names you’ve heard of – and we thought, clients chose independent brokers for a reason – not every client wants to be represented by a large international broker where products and services get standardised on size and geographical location, where advice gets watered down to the lowest common denominator, and broking teams are ‘told’ where they can and can’t place their business – irrespective of clients’ needs.

That’s why we started Birchin – to bring independence back to broking, and to give clients the choice they’ve lost in recent years.

We are part of a fully independent group of insurance and professional service businesses, free of any external shareholders, enabling us to put clients and staff at the heart of what we do.

We are owned and managed by a team of respected industry figures – whilst we are a new name, the team isn’t new – we all have a long history in insurance broking and professional indemnity, with an independent mindset and client first attitude.
