Steck-Cooper @ Co.

Steck-Cooper & Co. is an independent insurance agency in Belleville that writes personal coverage, business insurance and employee benefits. Because it is not tied to a single insurer, the agency can compare several carriers for home, auto, condo and motorcycle policies, as well as business owners and general liability coverage for companies, child care centers and schools. Group health, dental, vision, disability and voluntary benefits round out the employee side.

Office hours run weekday mornings and afternoons, and Wednesdays are handled by phone only, so calling is the surest way to reach the office that day. The agency has a 24/7 service line and offers periodic reviews of existing policies, along with help through the claims process. It serves clients in Swansea, O'Fallon, Fairview Heights, Shiloh and Alton, and writes policies across Illinois and Missouri.
