Protecting What Matters Most

Shield Insurance Group was founded in 1949 by Robert and Mary Thompson, two entrepreneurs who believed insurance should be simple, affordable, and personal. What began as a small office in Chicago serving local families has grown into one of America's most trusted insurance providers.

Through decades of change—from the digital revolution to shifting customer expectations—we've stayed true to our founding principle: every policyholder deserves personalized attention and fair treatment when they need us most.

Today, Shield protects over 2 million customers across all 50 states. We offer comprehensive coverage for auto, home, life, health, and business insurance, backed by 24/7 claims support and an A+ financial strength rating. Our network of 3,000 local agents ensures you always have a trusted advisor nearby.
