THE FRIEDEN AGENCY

The Frieden Agency began operating in 1928. Founded by the late Jack J. Leterman, it was the first John Hancock agency established in the state of Virginia. From its inception, the agency has been locally owned and operated by the family of its founder.

Although the agency's affiliation with John Hancock continues to this day, over the years the agency has expanded and today our Representatives can offer products of multiple insurance companies.

Our business philosophy is quite simple. It is our mission to bring to our clients quality insurance and investment products in order to help them achieve their financial goals.

In order to best serve our clients, we offer a variety of products and services.  Employee benefits, family and business insurance products form the foundation of our business.  Investment and retirement planning play an equally important role in your planning process.

From its inception, The Frieden Agency has felt a strong sense of community and industry responsibility.  Today, members of our agency participate with and often play leadership roles in The March of Dimes, Hampton Roads Youth Center, Special Olympics, Public Broadcasting and the various organizations that are essential to the betterment of our community.

Since 1928 it has been the mission of The Frieden Agency to serve our clients with honesty and integrity. Today we feel more committed than ever to these principles.
