“We are excited to welcome Gene Nosovitch and the West Park team to Alera Group,” said Alan Levitz, CEO of Alera Group. “Their unique specialties, particularly in the area of environmental insurance and malpractice coverage, bring new resources to Alera Group clients across the United States. The collaborative culture of West Park makes them an excellent fit as an Alera Group company.”
