About Morris & Garritano

Morris & Garritano is a last name company on a first name basis. For decades, the insurance industry has paid great attention to the items they cover. Policies are built around fair market value and replacement cost instead of what's really at the heart of it all: people.

Morris & Garritano is one of the largest independently owned insurance agencies in California. Headquartered in San Luis Obispo, CA with an additional office in Santa Maria, CA and representatives throughout the state, our clients range from corporations stretched across the nation, to small businesses with complex exposures, to growing families within our communities.

Over the years we have been honored to receive several awards, supporting the fact that it is our people that truly make us unique: National Underwriter's Agency of the Year, Inc. 5000’s Fastest Growing Companies, Insurance Journal’s Best Agencies to Work For, and the Best Places to Work on the Central Coast by the Pacific Coast Business Times.

We believe that open communication, teamwork, caring leadership, uncompromising values, financial strength and sincere client orientation provide for a highly motivated work environment that supports both personal and professional growth for our employees and a service approach that exceeds our clients’ expectations.
