Larry White founded White & Associates Insurance in 1976. He began by working out of the trunk of his car and, in 1978, had grown enough to hire his first employee, Laura Carnell. Laura is still with the team today, managing our commercial insurance division. White & Associates was awarded one of the first Allstate independent agency contracts in Tennessee in 1988 and grew to be recognized as the top producing financial services Allstate Independent Agency in the country in 2000. White & Associates remains the largest Independent Allstate agency in Tennessee.
Through the years, the agency has had success in partnering and acquiring numerous independent agencies in West Tennessee, Missouri and Arkansas. The first agency, Baugus Insurance of Trenton, was acquired in 1982. Partnerships with agencies in Tiptonville, Bolivar, Selmer and Jackson were developed in the early 1990s. White & Associates was fortunate to partner with First Citizens National Bank of Dyersburg in 1998 and Security Bank and Trust of Paris in 2005. We currently serve customers from 11 locations in Tennessee, Missouri and Arkansas. The W&A home office is located in a historic former hospital building in downtown Dyersburg. Fun fact: Larry was born in the building!
