JWI Group has been successfully meeting the needs of our customers since 1963. We first opened as The Joseph Washisko Agency and in 1992 Maria Wasiczko became the new owner and changed the name to The Wasiczko Agency. In July 2023 Christopher Januski, Maria Wasiczko’s son-in-law took over the family business. He understood the importance of the name Wasiczko in the local community and wanted to keep it in the new business, JWI is abbreviated for Januski Wasiczko Insurance. We’ve grown from the ground up, and we’ve accumulated years of experience to ensure our clients’ security and safety.
As a full-service agency built on the foundation of customer loyalty and trust, our aim is to develop long-term relationships with our clients so that we can provide them with the support and guidance they need. We are committed to bringing you peace of mind by offering quality products and personalized service, helping you achieve your goals.
Unlike a captive, or direct insurance company who only offers their own proprietary products, our agency is 100% independent of any one company. Many insurance consumers don’t fully understand just how important that really is. When it comes to something as important as insurance, it’s imperative that you work with an agency who has an in-depth knowledge of multiple insurance products, companies, and guidelines — not just one.
At the end of the day, what separates one agent from another, is their ability to proactively service their policy holders, and their knowledge of the insurance industry, products, and different situations that may present themselves to their clients.
