Independent Solutions for Complex Coverage Decisions

Finding the right insurance partner can feel frustrating when your business is too complex for direct carriers but not large enough to command attention from national brokerage houses. Many business owners and high-net-worth households worry they are being renewed every year without meaningful conversations about changing risks or coverage gaps.


KJE Insurance works exclusively with businesses and households that value ongoing guidance, annual reviews, and a relationship built on understanding their evolving needs. From Manhattan businesses to Hamptons homeowners, our approach focuses on helping you make confident decisions backed by thoughtful advice and long-term support.

Coverage for the Businesses Running

Whether you're running a restaurant in Tribeca, a production company in Midtown, or a professional services firm in the West Village, your business carries real risk. We act as your commercial insurance broker in NYC — understanding your exposure, placing the right coverage, and staying in your corner as your business grows and changes.

Business Insurance

General liability, commercial property, cyber liability, EPLI, and more — structured around how your business actually operates, not how a carrier's standard form assumes it does.

Personal Coverage for Households With More to Lose

Whether you're running a restaurant in Tribeca, a production company in Midtown, or a professional services firm in the West Village, your business carries real risk. We act as your commercial insurance broker in NYC — understanding your exposure, placing the right coverage, and staying in your corner as your business grows and changes.

Homeowners Insurance

Whether you own a brownstone in Brooklyn, a condo on the Upper East Side, or a home in Nassau County, we broker the right policy for your property and your situation — not a one-size product.

High-Value Home Insurance

For properties where replacement cost, contents, and liability exposure exceed what standard carriers are equipped to handle, we work with specialty markets that write these risks correctly.

Auto Insurance

Personal auto coverage placed with carriers appropriate to your vehicle, your profile, and your location — reviewed alongside your other personal lines so nothing falls through the gap between policies.

The Conversation Doesn't End When the Policy Is Bound

Here's what many brokers don't tell you: once the policy is signed, you're largely on your own until renewal. No check-ins. No review. No one asking whether your coverage still fits.


At KJE Insurance, the relationship starts when the policy is bound — not ends.


We build standing reviews into every engagement, reaching out before you have to pick up the phone. When your situation changes—a new location, a new hire, a renovation, an acquisition, or a new asset—we're already part of the conversation.


Because insurance works best when it's reviewed regularly, not revisited only after a claim or renewal notice arrives.


Personal Coverage for the Homes and Assets That Matter Most to You

If you own a Manhattan co-op, a home in the Hamptons, or a property in Westchester, standard coverage probably isn't enough. We place personal lines with carriers that understand high-value real estate, complex asset exposure, and what it actually costs to rebuild or replace what you've built. And we review it every year — because your life changes, and your coverage should keep up

Why Independent Brokerage Makes a Difference

We work for you, not the carrier. Our job is to find the right coverage at the best available price — not to place you in the only product one company sells.

Real market access across multiple carriers means you get options, not a take-it-or-leave-it quote.

Annual reviews are built into every engagement. Your coverage is measured against your actual risk profile every year.

Every account is handled by a principal. There is no tier above you where attention goes first.

Who We Work With


We work with two kinds of clients, and both share the same expectation — a broker who understands their situation and stays present after the paperwork is done.


On the business side, our clients include restaurant groups, media production companies, entertainment agencies, commercial property owners, and professional services firms across the NYC metro. Most are doing $1–25M in annual revenue — big enough to have real exposure, small enough to get ignored at the large houses.


On the personal side, our clients are homeowners, co-op and condo owners, and high-value households across Manhattan, Westchester, the Hamptons, and Long Island who need coverage placed by someone who understands what they own and what it's worth.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • What does an independent insurance broker in Manhattan do differently than a direct carrier?

    An independent broker works for you, not for one company. We access multiple carriers to find coverage that fits your actual risk profile — something a single carrier's sales channel simply can't do. For a business or a high-value household, that difference is significant.

  • Who do I call for business insurance in New York?

    Call or text KJE Insurance at 212-786-2018. We work with commercial accounts across NYC, Long Island, Westchester, and the broader metro — restaurants, media companies, professional services firms, and more.

  • Does KJE serve clients outside of New York City?

    Yes. We work with clients across Long Island, Westchester County, the Hamptons, and Los Angeles. Our entertainment and media practice has a strong bicoastal presence, and our personal lines work covers high-value properties well beyond the five boroughs.


  • Is KJE the right fit for a small business?

    If your business does $1–25M in annual revenue, you're likely in a gap — too sophisticated for a direct carrier, too small to get real attention at a large brokerage. That's exactly who we built this practice for.
