McKenna, President - [email protected] - 412-231-5630\r\n \r\nThirteen years ago, two small brokerage general agencies run by Marty Katz and Gary Nassau reached the same conclusion: that a single practitioner representing only one or two companies could not survive in a changing life and health insurance marketplace. And so...the Katz Nassau Agency was formed. \r\n \r\nWith dual thrusts of handling the excess production of career agents, and being the life arm of property and casualty agents, together they grew to rank among the leading general agents with their companies.
