A Milestone for Our Legacy:
Same Values, New Leadership.

January 2026

Since 1974, Pipes Insurance has been built on a single promise: Service First.

For over 30 years, agency owners Scott and Rick Pipes have been the stewards of that mission. They built the foundation we stand on today, leading our team with a genuine, deep commitment to people.

Now, we are taking an exciting step to ensure this legacy endures. Scott and Rick are investing in the future by mentoring the next generation of leaders while remaining actively involved to guide the way.

Pipes Insurance Leadership

We are proud to announce that Chris Pipes has stepped into the role of President. When Chris joined the agency nine years ago, he brought with him a strong background in commercial claims and a commitment to technical expertise, earning his Chartered Property Casualty Underwriter (CPCU) and Certified Insurance Counselor (CIC) designations. Since then, he has anchored our property and casualty division, managing our most complex accounts and earning the trust of our team. As Scott’s son, Chris is deeply committed to carrying the company forward with the same 'Service First' heart that has defined us since day one.

We are equally thrilled to share that Will McEwan has become a partner in the firm. Will is a cornerstone of our employee benefits division, known for handling unique client challenges with a rare mix of skill and care. Will leads by example, and we are excited to have his vision help shape our future for years to come.

For Scott and Rick, this is not a goodbye; the partnership is simply expanding. Scott, Rick, Chris, and Will are continuing to lead together, with Scott and Rick remaining actively involved to guide the team and ensure a seamless transition for the years ahead.

Our founding principles of faith, family, and service remain the heartbeat of this agency. As we expand our capabilities to better serve you, those values will never change. We are incredibly grateful for the trust you have placed in us, and we look forward to serving you for generations to come.
