Our History

Insurance is a people business. Relationships of trust, knowledge, and a willingness to serve are our stock in trade.

Koty-Leavitt Insurance Agency’s roots date back to 1940 when Kenneth Nehring opened an independent insurance agency in Tucson. In 1953 Arthur Nehring joined his father in the agency and in 1970 they merged with the Solot-Walker Agency and became Nehring-Solot-Walker.

Nehring-Solot-Walker and the remaining partners merged with Koty-Leavitt Insurance Agency, Inc. on July 1, 1990. Morton Solot passed away in 2002. Arthur Nehring is still with Koty-Leavitt Insurance.

Koty-Leavitt Insurance Agency’s staff of over 45 insurance professionals specializes in all types of business and personal insurance, as well as surety bonds. Our staff is not only licensed and trained in the field of insurance, we are also committed to the service of our clients. This commitment has helped make us one of the largest insurance agencies in Arizona.
