Client Reviews

"James saved our company over $180,000 in the first year by restructuring our self-funded plan. He's methodical, responsive, and genuinely invested in outcomes."

Sarah K.

VP of HR, Midwest Manufacturing Co. (340 employees)

"We'd been with the same carrier for 9 years. James did a full market analysis, moved us to a level-funded plan, and our renewal came in 12% lower than last year."

David L.

CFO, Chicago Tech Partners (85 employees)

"What sets James apart is his follow-through. He's not just there at renewal โ€” he's checking in quarterly, benchmarking our costs, and always looking for opportunities to improve our plan."

Rebecca M.

HR Director, Regional Healthcare Group (520 employees)
