About Terrapin Insurance Group

Local Expertise.
Carrier Access.
Real Advocacy.

Terrapin was founded in 2011 by University of Maryland graduate Mike Davis. Based in Rockville, MD and licensed across Maryland, Washington DC, and Virginia, Terrapin Insurance Group is a truly independent agency. That means we work for you — not the insurance company.

As longtime Montgomery County natives, we know the DMV and understand its unique insurance needs and how to best navigate this region's ever-changing rates — from commuters and condo owners in DC, to homeowners in the Maryland suburbs, to small businesses across Northern Virginia.

We aim to be your one-stop shop Insurance Advisors. You aren't just talking to a stranger in a call center taking orders, we're crafting your policies, we're managing your policies, and we're proactively reaching out to you advising you with suggestions as life changes.

"By far the best experience I've had with insurance. They went above and beyond answering my questions and informing me about important coverages I didn't even know were a thing. I can always rely on them — can't recommend enough!!"
