About Us
Professional Risk, formerly known as Rich & Cartmill Insurance of Colorado, LLC, was formed in 2004 to be a respected client representative in the insurance marketplace. In April of 2018 Rich & Cartmill Insurance of Colorado, LLC partnered with the Alera Group which resulted in the new name, Professional Risk. This allowed us to provide the opportunity to operate with the benefits of a national broker but is also personal to Colorado's clientele and needs.
The short term and long-term goal of Professional Risk is to be recognized by its Clients, Carriers, Employees, Peers and Colleagues as the premier provider of insurance products and services in the region and nationally.
