For over 40 years, Jerry Ellis has been committed to developing customized insurance solutions for families, individuals, and businesses throughout Texas. You can always count on Jerry to give you the advice you need to know when it matters most in your life. In January of 1994, Nicole Ellis began her insurance career working alongside her father, Jerry, during her junior year of high school.

My goal is to provide personalized attention to every client to ensure you receive a protection plan that fits their unique needs and lifestyle.
Amy Hurst became our agent for a San Antonio property I managed. She was friendly, responsive, knowledgeable, and very efficient in understanding our needs, advising coverage parameters and securing our policy. After a catastrophic property fire and total loss, she helped me navigate the claims process.
In order to meet the minimum requirements for auto insurance in the state, residents will need to have $60,000 for all person's bodily injury liability coverage and $25,000 for property damage liability. Liability insurance will cover accidents and damages that you cause to another person. Bodily injury liability covers costs for injuries, as well as a legal defense if you are sued for things such as loss of income or pain and suffering.
One of the biggest purchases that most people ever make is their home. When you are looking to buy a property, it is very important that you keep it properly covered by insurance. For those that are in the San Antonio, TX area, a quality home insurance policy gives a variety of different protections that could prove to be very valuable.

My father contacted several different agencies after receiving an increase from their current insurance company. He ultimately decided on Ellis Insurance because of the great quotes that were provided along with receiving excellent customer service. It was obvious to me why he chose Ellis Agency. After his passing, I worked directly with Jennifer Campbell on home owners renewals, car insurance renewals, changes in pricing for changes in renewal terms, and ultimately cancellations. At every step of the way Jennifer was sensitive to my needs and our situation and provided quick responses and support

I love everything about Ellis Insurance Agency. We've gotten car insurance through them for the past 2 years and they've always made the process super seamless. We've specifically had the pleasure of working with Melanie and she's been amazing. She really goes out her way to ensure you get the best possible insurance premiums, with the best value, and that she answers any and all questions you might have. Every year we've looked to shop around to find the best quotes and Melanie has taken care of all the searching for us. The only thing left for us to do is sign the papers! I couldn't ask for more

I had the pleasure to work with Melanie while shopping for a new auto & home policy. I had reached out to her since my current agency was wanting to raise my insurance significantly for an additional car. She was very responsive and quick with any answers to the questions I had posed. She was able to save me a lot of money by switching to Ellis Insurance. This agency has a rockstar within their team and I would advise anyone shopping for insurance to check Ellis Insurance.

I have been a client of Ellis Insurance Agency for 18 years, both personally and professionally. Working in residential mortgages many years ago, my company referred clients to Ellis who needed new homeowners policies, and that is how I got to know them. Seeing first hand how well they served our clients and hearing all of the positive feedback, I went to them myself when we bought our first home. I have been a home and auto client ever since! We switched for one year to a different broker in an effort to help out a friend who started working there, and the difference in service and responsiveness

Amy Hurst became our agent for a San Antonio property I managed. She was friendly, responsive, knowledgeable, and very efficient in understanding our needs, advising coverage parameters and securing our policy. After a catastrophic property fire and total loss, she helped me navigate the claims process. She was instrumental in securing the maximum insurance proceeds payout for our company after we were originally told the payment would be partial. I cannot applaud loudly enough on all fronts for Amy Hurst and Ellis Insurance Agency. Can I give a bonus star?

This was my first experience working with Ellis Insurance Company, and I'm disappointed I didn't work with them sooner! I had the extreme pleasure of working with Neal, and was impressed by his attention to detail, promptness in communication (even during the holiday time frame!), and overall knowledge of helping me customize the best homeowner's insurance plan for my future home. This family business has absolutely earned my trust and all future insurance business, and I cannot express how much I'd encourage you to do the same.

Before using Ellis Insurance Agency, I had to go out for bids every year to make sure I was getting the most bang for the buck. Not anymore. Jennifer went through a bid and comparison of companies, sent me a spreadsheet and went over it with me to see what I felt was the best deal. I have saved significant dollars and got better coverage every year with Ellis Insurance.

I just recently had the pleasure of dealing with Melanie York to renew and adjust my insurance policy. I now have the lowest rate I have ever paid in over a decade, I am beyond pleased. Not only did she get me better coverage all around but combined car/renters insurance dropped nearly 30% AND I got to stay with my current company to retain all my tenure benefits.
A+ all the way around! Thank you!!

I highly recommend Ellis insurance for all of your insurance needs. They are very professional and prompt in returning calls/text messages about your quotes. Melanie is the best! Very professional and courteous, she helped me get the best rate possible even though I hadn’t had insurance in many years. Hands down best experience I’ve had with any customer service in a long time!

Jerry & his staff are incredible! Always searching for the exact match of our needs & the best agency for us with the best price. After an accident, Jerry has always been there with comforting words & advice. After severe hail damage, you guessed it...Jerry was there with us through the repairs and sage words of advice. Thank you to the entire staff & especially Jerry for being there. We started with him when our 39 year old son started driving & now all 3 sons are grown and have Ellis Insurance Agency as their agency.
