Life insurance with
a real person
behind it.
I'm Devon Tyerman — an independent broker who specializes only in life insurance and retirement. I represent 25+ A-rated carriers and put them side by side to find what genuinely fits you. One advisor who teaches, shops, and actually answers the phone.
Five ways to protect and grow what matters.
I focus on life insurance and retirement strategy — and nothing else. That focus means I know these products inside out. Click any one to learn how it works.
You're paying for an agent either way.
Here's what most people don't realize: the commission that pays your agent is already baked into your premium — whether you buy direct from the insurance company or through me. The rates are filed with the state, so going "direct" doesn't save you a dime.
So why use a captive agent who can only sell one company's products? As an independent broker I shop 25+ carriers, compare them side by side, and bring you the best fit. Same cost. Far more options.

You're paying for an agent either way.
Why not get all the options?
Let me explain something the insurance industry doesn't advertise. When you buy a life insurance policy, a commission is built into your premium that pays the agent who sold it. That commission is there whether you buy directly from the insurance company or through an independent broker like me — and the price to you is identical.
Life insurance rates are filed with and regulated by each state. A captive agent who works for one company cannot legally offer you a better price on that company's product than I can. "Going direct" feels like it should be cheaper. It isn't.
So the real question isn't broker or direct — it's one option or twenty-five. A captive agent has a single company's shelf to sell from, and an incentive to make your needs fit their product. I represent 25+ A-rated carriers, so I can compare them side by side and recommend the one that actually fits your health, your budget, and your goals. Same cost to you. Far more options. And advice that answers to you — not to one carrier's sales targets.

I treat your policy like it's my own family's.
I got into this business after watching someone close to me get underpaid on a claim they thought was covered. They'd paid their premiums faithfully for years — and when it mattered most, no one was in their corner. I decided to be that person for the people I work with.
As an independent broker, I don't work for an insurance company — I work for you. I specialize only in life insurance and retirement, so I know these products deeply: whole life, indexed universal life, annuities, infinite banking, and term. I can put 25+ carriers side by side, explain the fine print in plain English, and recommend what's genuinely best — not whatever one company tells me to sell.
When you call, you get me. When you have a question years down the road, I'm still the one who picks up.
