Heffernan Insurance Brokers’ subsidiary OLI Insurance Services has acquired California-based Valley General Insurance Services for an undisclosed price.

Valley General Insurance Services will continue to be headed by its president David Tuckness. It will continue to autonomously operate as a subsidiary agency making use of the market access and resources of OLI Insurance Services and Heffernan Insurance Brokers.

John Prichard Jr. – president of OLI Insurance Services said: “Valley General is a great addition to our network of owned insurance agencies.

“David and his team at Valley General are the foundation for a strong OLI and Heffernan presence in San Jose and the South Bay, and we are excited to partner with this team to help them deliver best in class solutions for their customers, and achieve strong growth objectives.”
