About Our Company


Founded in 1852, Eichlitz, Dennis, Wray & Westheimer's longevity has been fueled by consistent performance and strong customer loyalty. We are one of the oldest insurance brokerage firms in Texas. Our merger with Wortham in 2001 brought additional capability to our already robust operation as our nearly 100 employees linked efforts and expertise with more than 350 associates in Houston, Austin, Fort Worth and Dallas. Throughout our long history, an important constant has sustained our steady growth: our total commitment to our customers and to the important values of trust, integrity and openness that define our firm.

We serve an extensive range of industries, from construction to energy to healthcare to sports and entertainment. We offer a comprehensive portfolio of services, including insurance brokerage, claim management, loss control, risk management consulting and employee benefits.
