Insurance in Edwardsville, from a family agency next door in Glen Carbon

Edwardsville is the Madison County seat and home to SIUE, where founder Mike Babcock earned his degree. Families and business owners here get a local team that answers the phone, not a queue.

The short answer

Babcock Insurance & Financial Group serves Edwardsville from its office next door in Glen Carbon, minutes from the SIUE campus and the county courthouse downtown. Independent and family-owned since 1995, the team writes business, home, auto, life, and health coverage, shopping Pekin, West Bend, Hartford, and others to fit your family or company.

The Illinois Department of Insurance licenses every agent serving Edwardsville, so you can verify a license or file a question.

A local team, not a call center

Nearly 30 years insuring the Edwardsville area

Edwardsville keeps growing around the courthouse and Main Street, and Babcock has insured both sides of that growth: the families in the older neighborhoods and the trades, storefronts, and professional offices that keep the town running. Business owners are a big part of the work, and the coverage gets built around how each operation actually runs rather than around one company’s box.

You reach the same people every time you call. When a business adds a truck, a household adds a driver, or a policy needs a second look at renewal, you adjust it with someone who already knows the account.
