Since we started, our goal has been to help people find the right coverage for their lifestyles—whether they want to protect their homes, cars, or businesses. Using our years of experience, we empower clients to choose the right insurance for them.
Southwest Insurance Management Group was founded in 1999 by Michael Maples. Now located in Flower Mound, TX, SIMG proudly services its clients with all their personal and commercial insurance needs. Still working closely with many of the same carriers he started with, Michael has grown his agency partnership to over 20 different carriers and increased his outreach to 11 states and counting!
The insurance industry has grown tremendously since 1999, and SIMG has grown alongside it. Our company has weathered two recessions, five catastrophic weather events, and so much more. Through it all, we continue to evolve with technology and social media to meet the increasingly unique ways that consumers shop for insurance products.
We pride ourselves on the ability to educate our clients on what coverage is best suited to their lifestyles and assets. Above all else, our top priority is providing exceptional customer service and a positive customer experience.
SIMG’s history reflects our deep ties to the community and to the nation. In the coming years, we aim to expand, continue to provide the best rates in the marketplace to our client base, and grow our expertise.
Michael is a native Texan, having been born and raised right here in Dallas. He became an insurance agent in 1999, owning an Allstate agency for two years. Ultimately, Michael felt that being an independent agent was better for himself, his business, and his clients, so he sold his Allstate agency and formed Southwest Insurance Management Group in 2001. The business began in Duncanville, TX and moved to Highland Village in 2010, where Michael now lives. In his free time, he loves to golf, go to Texas Rangers baseball games, and travel. Michael and his fiancée have two daughters, and a sweet dog named Ranger.
