Jim Strickland and the existing AGA staff will continue to operate from their current location, under the leadership of Bill Zimmer, as a satellite office of the existing Atlanta area retail office of Brown & Brown Insurance of Georgia, located in Duluth, Georgia.

Charles Lydecker, regional executive vice president of Brown & Brown, said: We are looking forward to having Jim and this fine team of insurance professionals joins our growing Georgia presence. These talented folks provide us with additional resources and represent yet another expansion of our service to middle-market businesses in the greater Atlanta/North Georgia market.
