Why John T. Cook & Associates?

Independent – to work for you.

John T. Cook & Associates is the Grand Strand Region’s go-to team for cost-effectively insuring the area’s cars, homes, and businesses. Unlike those big-name agencies, we don’t work for one insurance carrier with a one-size-fits-all solution. We instead get to know you personally to identify all your options and help you compare insurance rates and coverage choices. We are independent and represent most of the nation’s leading home, business, restaurant, and auto insurance companies. Our agents have a wealth of background in restaurant insurance, as well as in-depth knowledge of insuring second homes, vacation homes, and condos.

Local Agent. National Support.

Correll Insurance Group offers the best of both worlds—you get to use a local, independent agent who lives in your town and knows you personally, but this agent is backed by a strong, national firm that’s been serving the Carolinas for more than 90 years. So you don’t have to choose between having a personal relationship with your agent and knowing your insurance has enough resources. You’ll get both with Correll.
