Dumont Insurance Brokers

What Dumont Insurance Brokers does

Dumont Insurance Brokers Corp. is a specialty insurance brokerage founded in 1996 by CEO Mordy Littman and headquartered at 31 Fenimore Road in New Rochelle, New York. The firm focuses on professional liability and errors & omissions (E&O) coverage for hard-to-place and niche risk profiles, with active product lines spanning Lawyers Professional Liability, Directors & Officers Insurance, Medical Malpractice, Intellectual Property Defense, Architects & Engineers, Real Estate, Life Sciences, and ancillary coverages such as cyber, employment practices liability (EPL), and fiduciary liability. The brokerage serves professional services firms and small-to-mid businesses across the United States and positions itself with global reach for cross-border placements.

Dumont operates a traditional intermediary model, sourcing coverage from a network of more than 50 top-rated carriers including Lloyd's of London, AIG, and ACE USA. Revenue is generated through carrier commissions on placed premiums rather than fees for service or subscription pricing, which aligns the firm's economics with policy size and renewal retention across its specialty book. Distribution is primarily direct via the firm's website, which exposes dedicated quote intake forms for each product line, supplemented by relationship-led broker engagement.

The firm is privately held, reports a headcount band of 11–50 employees, and discloses no external funding, acquisitions, or material leadership transitions. Operating for nearly three decades in a relationship-driven specialty segment, Dumont competes on carrier access and underwriting expertise rather than technology differentiation; the source materials reference an "automation-tinged" operating model but provide no specifics on proprietary AI, data assets, or platform architecture.
