Our Agency was founded in 1984 by Bob Detwiler. Bob worked very hard for 21+ years at building a professional, honest, caring and service oriented insurance agency. Bob was not only an agent to many of his clients, but also their friend. In 2005, Bob felt he had spent enough time in the insurance industry and needed to spend a lot more time on the golf course so he retired. He sold the agency to R. Jason Brofford and Jason has maintained the same high standards set forth by Bob ever since.

Our office is located in Gahanna, a suburb of Columbus, Ohio; however, Detwiler-Brofford Insurance, Inc. serves the insurance needs of individuals, families and businesses in Blacklick, Westerville, New Albany, Reynoldsburg, Pickerington, Bexley, Pataskala, and all over Ohio.

Jason Brofford was born and raised in Gahanna, Ohio and graduated from Gahanna Lincoln High School in 1991. He then went on to Bowling Green State University in Bowling Green, Ohio where he earned a Bachelor of Science Degree in Criminal Justice. From there, he began exploring opportunities within the insurance industry and started a scratch agency with American Family Insurance in 1999. In 2001, the opportunity to become an independent agent with Detwiler Insurance Agency, Inc. was too good to pass up.
