OUR PARENT COMPANY
Since 2021, Lancer Insurance Company has been a division of Core Specialty Insurance Holdings, Inc., which offers a diversified range of property and casualty insurance products for small to mid-sized businesses. Focusing on niche markets, local distribution, and superior underwriting knowledge, Core Specialty provides traditional, as well as innovative, insurance solutions to meet the needs of its customers and brokers.
WHERE TO FIND US
Ask our policyholders and they'll tell you — we're a nationwide company with a small-town feel. We have roughly 400 employees in offices spanning the country — New York, Florida, Ohio, Texas and Washington. We're licensed and writing business in all 50 states, plus Washington D.C. and Puerto Rico.
But despite the large scale of our operation, we never lose sight of the fact that our customers are on the receiving end of what we do on a daily basis. Our employees are exceptional people, committed to providing the highest level of customer service the industry has to offer. And, when you need us most, we'll be there to show you the value of honest to goodness personal attention.
OUR FINANCIAL STRENGTH
Great coverages at great rates and value-added loss prevention tools won't provide peace of mind if your insurance company doesn't have the financial strength and stability when you need it most. As a Lancer policyholder, there's no need to worry.
As a division of Core Specialty, Lancer Insurance Company is backed by the financial strength of the nation’s leading specialty property and casualty insurers. A.M. Best, an independent insurance industry rating agency, has given Core Specialty an A- "Excellent" Financial Size XII rating, so you can rest assured knowing that you can always count on Lancer, just as you have since 1985.

OUR MOTTO
In 1985, Lancer Insurance was co-founded by Dave & Tim Delaney and built around a single motto: The Difference is Our Attitude.
What does that mean?
In short, it means we're honest people with simple goals — to put our customers first, and provide them with the best coverage, customer service and claims handling in the business.
With Lancer, you get people who understand the ins and outs of your business. We have professionals trained in everything from state and federal safety requirements, to specialized coverages, to new technologies — all ready to answer your questions and respond to your needs quickly and efficiently.
And when the worst happens, we're by your side to help keep you and your business moving forward. After all, we're all on the same team.
We believe that attitude makes all the difference. And we think you will too.
““It is very refreshing to work with Lancer. Their underwriters are willing to listen to you, and their inspection reports and photos make it very clear for the client to know what exposures must be addressed.””
