Gallagher Issues Statement on AssuredPartners of South Florida Settlement
Gallagher said the settlement was reserved under the purchase agreement and did not change the price it paid for AssuredPartners.
On Tuesday, Arthur J. Gallagher & Co. issued a statement regarding a civil settlement between the U.S. Department of Justice, AssuredPartners of South Florida, and AssuredPartners, Inc.
The settlement covers actions at an agency owned by AssuredPartners of South Florida from February 2021 through September 2022, a period predating Gallagher's August 2025 acquisition of AssuredPartners, Inc.
During pre-acquisition due diligence, Gallagher became aware of the government investigation, which was subsequently considered under the purchase agreement for AssuredPartners, Inc.
The settlement amount was fully reserved and does not impact the purchase price Gallagher paid for AssuredPartners, Inc., shielding the acquisition value from legal costs.
Headquartered in Rolling Meadows, Illinois, Gallagher operates as a global insurance brokerage and risk management firm providing services in approximately 130 countries through owned operations and correspondent networks.
