Civil Municipal - January 2026

In 1892 Charles R. Brown opened a small insurance agency in the Gill and League Building in downtown Galveston. Fast-forward 133 years and that small agency has become GIA Insurance with two offices, specialized departments for Personal, Business and Employee Benefits coverage and a staff of over 40 professionals serving the Galveston County and Houston Area. The agency’s dedicated departments are staffed with licensed, accredited Client Success Advisors and Risk Advisors committed to serving the insurance needs of their clients. GIA provides coverage for first-time homeowners as well as those with high-value homes and autos. Other clients include new businesses to large established corporations with multiple locations. As an Independent Insurance Agency, GIA has access to highly respected insurance companies. That allows the agency to give clients options for their coverage. Based on GIA’s experiences during storms like Alicia, Allison, Ike, Harvey and Beryl the agency’s Catastrophe Plan assures that staff is safe and available to clients when they are needed the most – at claim time. GIA’s staff is proud of living up to their motto of “Service Before and After The Storm.” BUSINESS INSURANCE MADE PERSONAL SINCE 1892 (409) 740-1251    CONNECT WITH US Protecting What Matters for 133 Years.
