Carnegie General Insurance Agency (CGIA) was founded in 1988 to fill the expanding needs of the California auto industry market. Since then, Carnegie has maintained a consistent and growing presence as a recognized leader of the insurance industry.

Carnegie is dedicated to providing quality and innovative insurance products and services. Senior management averages over 19 years of experience in specialty auto operations. Our experience includes the formation, ownership and operation of a general agency, claims administrator, and insurance company (since sold).

We operate as a unit of the Six Smith Family, Inc. holding company and are currently licensed in Arizona, California, Colorado, Idaho, Minnesota, Nevada, Oregon, Washington and Wisconsin. Although we specialize in non-standard auto, we provide coverage for a full range of personal and commercial lines products such as commercial auto, motorcycle, watercraft, motor home, mobile home and manufactured home. We have recently expanded our offerings to include renters insurance and 30–day binder coverage for auto dealers.

Carnegie’s success is directly attributed to our focus on quality and service. In our twenty year history we have progressed into a General Agency that manages all phases of the automobile insurance business including claims administration, product development and program analysis. With continuous focus on the ever-changing and diverse needs of our clients, Carnegie strives to provide the highest quality of customer service to its policyholders, producers and Carriers. From low down and monthly payments to providing Electronic Payment or Pay-By-Phone options, Carnegie is making every effort to raise customer satisfaction in all areas of its business practices.
