Celebrating a Legacy: The Prewitt Group Marks 50 Years of Service Excellence

For five decades, we have been a trusted partner for businesses and individuals seeking peace of mind through custom insurance solutions.  John R. “Jack” Prewitt, Jr., founded our company in November 1974. Since then, we have built our legacy on a simple yet powerful promise: to protect clients from risk while treating them like family. What began as J.R. Prewitt and Associates has grown into one of the Southeast’s most respected risk management firms.

Built on Family Values and Service Excellence

Fostering deep connections, grounded in trust and respect, with clients, partners, and employees, has been at the heart of our philosophy from the beginning. That guiding principle continues to shape our legacy today. Known for our client-first approach, we have garnered numerous accolades, including the prestigious Frankenmuth Insurance National Agency of the Year and The Hartford Stag One Agency Award among others. These awards underscore our dedication to a concierge-level service and being a trusted advisor, rather than a mere transactional provider of services.

“Our vision for the next 50 years is to remain a trusted advisor, adapting to a changing industry through innovative solutions while staying true to the principles that have guided us since 1974,” adds Johnny Prewitt, President of The Prewitt Group.

A Legacy of Leadership and Community Engagement

Our leadership extends far beyond business. Over the years, we have established key partnerships with industry organizations such as the Alabama Center for Architecture and the American Council of Engineering Companies Alabama, which reflects our commitment to professional service excellence. Giving back to our community remains a pillar of our company mission, and we proudly support organizations that strengthen and serve our communities. 

The Next 50 Years

As a third-generation family-owned business, we have embraced innovation to meet the evolving needs of our clients. Whether through cutting-edge technology or tailored risk management solutions, we ensure our clients are protected with care and precision.

With a foundation built on trust, innovation, and service, we look to the future with optimism and determination. Our mission remains clear: to deliver peace of mind and make a difference in the lives of those we serve.

We understand the challenges clients face in navigating the complexities of insurance. Whether safeguarding a growing business, securing a family’s future, or managing unexpected risks, our team is here to guide you every step of the way. Cheers to the next 50 years of continuing a legacy of excellence.
