In 1997, Argus Fire and Casualty Insurance Company, began its ongoing partnership with the State and policyholders of Florida with the assumption of approx. 50,000 homeowners insurance policies depopulated from the Florida Residential Property and Casualty Joint Underwriting Association. Since then, Argus has furthered its relationship with the State of Florida through a series of additional depopulations from Citizens Property and Casualty Insurance Corporation. In addition to its role as a depopulation partner of CPIC, Argus is also preparing to introduce a suite of “voluntary market” products including stand alone auto, bundled auto/homeowner, residential, condominium and commercial policies. These “voluntary market” policies will be available within the 1st Quarter, 2009.

Throughout Argus’ long term history of insuring and administering coastal exposed residential insurance in Florida, we have developed a track record of surviving and thriving through both active and dormant hurricane seasons. We live/work in Florida and understand the unique dynamics of the Florida insurance market place. We know what is important to our policyholders and as such, we have achieved and maintained an exemplary level of fair and expedient claims handling on a “day to day” as well as, “catastrophic” claims handling basis. This track record and approach has afforded Argus the luxury of maintaining a solid and growing policyholder base with the financial strength to meet the needs and expectations of our customers.

Our success has bolstered Argus’ enthusiasm toward insuring the Florida insurance consumer and additional growth is planned for 2009 and beyond. At Argus, we value our current customers and welcome the opportunity to service additional customers and agents as we earn your business. Welcome to the Argus family!
