Our team has decades of experience in insurance company underwriting, corporate risk management, broking, engineering, claims, and other specialty expertise across diverse industries, including service, retail, higher education, non-profit, manufacturing and professional services; to the most complex construction, healthcare, transportation, oil and gas, life sciences and chemicals. 

We offer niche broking services, as well as considering partnerships with other highly regarded firms, to enhance a client’s risk management profile. We don’t just “place your business”; we invest in delivering results, improving your risk picture, and building trusted relationships.  We have deep hands-on experience in underwriting, risk mitigation, advisory, and broking. Our goal is to best position our clients to tell their story to insurance carriers, and other risk, financial, and operational related stakeholders. We seek to “level the playing field” for clients with our expertise, reputation and established partnerships.  

“The Journey”

In January 2023, after a combined nearly 30 years of service at AIG, I made the decision to embark on “the journey “ to establish my own boutique risk consulting firm, Judson Pearl Risk Solutions, LLC. My firm specializes in Risk Advisory, Consulting, and Broking, for an array of businesses, across a myriad of industries.

I led many facets of underwriting, P&L, and distribution during my tenure at AIG. I served in areas as diverse as risk management, workers compensation, energy, umbrella, property, aviation, surety and other specialty lines. I also had the privilege to serve as a Zonal President for Commercial Insurance, in one of the largest regions in North America. In that role, I became the first African-American to be named a Zonal President in the history of the company. After a brief time as a COO for another firm, I have returned to my firm, Judson Pearl Risk Solutions.

I had the opportunity to travel the globe, and work with some of the most brilliant and generous minds in the insurance and risk management industry; many who became mentors, mentees and friends. After decades of experience, training, and leadership at one the largest and most successful insurance companies in the world, I am committed to the goal of bringing the highest level of expertise to clients at Judson Pearl Risk Solutions.

Everything Judson Pearl Risk Solutions represents, is about excellence, expertise, innovation, commitment, work ethic, honesty, and integrity. I am extremely proud of the talented and professional risk partners that are joining Judson Pearl Risk Solutions on this journey.

Quarterly updates on latest industry developments, and how they may impact how your organization thinks about risk

Unlock your Risk Awareness Potential

How aware is your organization of its potential risks or actual hazards?

Many insurance brokers and risk services related firms talk about Total Cost of Risk (TCOR), but it is equally critical to review your Risk Awareness Index (RAI). RAI expands on TCOR, helping your firm understand and measure what impact risks may have, how to deal with them, while keeping an eye open for new hazards and risks. RAI can be utilized as a “leading indicator” of your organization’s risk awareness, and often readiness.
