Mr.
Lynn Pierce and Mr. David Orgeron purchased the 45 year
old agency from the previous owners: Mr. Leon Theriot,
Mr. Norman Theriot, and Mr. Louis Duet. Mr. Pierce and
Mr. Orgeron have considerable insurance experience in
all lines of insurance and have been with TDT since 1974
and 1984 respectively. Their clientele ranges from the
small "Mom and Pop" companies to the larger
Marine and Property and Casualty accounts.
Mr.
Pierce and Mr. Orgeron have carried on the longstanding
tradition of the agency's founder, by working closely
with the blue chip insurers to build trust, relationship,
and continuity within the insurance equation. They have
had agency contracts with the same insurers since the
agency's original incorporation. Such continuity is almost
unheard of in today's ever-changing corporate environment.
TDT
is located on Bayou Lafourche in Golden Meadow, Louisiana.
The agency has been a favorite purchase target by the
large public brokerage houses. However, the management
of TDT has elected to remain independent, thus being able
to keep a closer relationship with their base. TDT has
a well-established network relationship with certain other
independent agencies that affords them the ability to
market and service accounts well outside the Bayou Lafourche
area.
