A practice built on the simple promise that someone will actually pick up the phone.
In an industry drifting toward call trees, offshore routing, and automated chat, Brookmires was founded on patient, personal stewardship.
“We choose quality of relationship over transactional scale, every time.”
Refusing the call-center model.
Across the insurance and financial industry, the personal relationship has been steadily dismantled. When a claim, a life change, or a coverage question comes up, people are too often shuttled through scripted menus and ticketing queues.
Brookmires was organized to deliver a direct, concierge relationship instead — from our desk in Kingsport, Tennessee, to clients across the region. We take the time to examine coverage line by line and build protection around real careers and real families, not a quota.
How our independence protects your peace of mind.
Free from captive quotas or proprietary sales targets, our compass stays with the client.
True Independence
We answer to our clients, not to a carrier's production minimums. If a carrier's rates or terms aren't competitive for you, we say so plainly and look elsewhere.
The Unhurried Conversation
We don't believe in high-pressure closes for major life decisions. We sit with your questions and take the time needed to reach genuine clarity.
Long-Term Stewardship
Issuing a policy is day one. We perform proactive reviews, monitor for changes worth knowing about, and stand with you if a claim ever arises.
Three tenets of our client care.
Clear standards applied to every individual and family we represent.
Direct Line Accessibility
No endless touch-tone menus or ticket numbers. When you call, you reach us directly.
Direct Line: 423.251.6809Plain English Demystification
Insurance contracts are thick with jargon and exclusions. We strip away the ambiguity so you understand exactly what's covered, what isn't, and why.
Transparent ComparisonsClient-First Carrier Selection
We build a custom solution for the client in front of us, and can seek out the right carrier appointment when a client's situation calls for it — rather than offering one fixed product line.
No Fixed Product LineRooted in Tennessee. Trusted across the Southeast.
The ridgelines of Sullivan County and the calm of Bays Mountain anchor our founding philosophy: steady, unhurried, personal stewardship. Kingsport is our home base and primary advisory desk — and from here, Brookmires Financial is licensed to serve clients in Tennessee and Virginia; our agents may hold individual licenses in other states as well.

A standard employer group disability policy didn't travel well between states and had a restrictive definition of disability.

We reviewed the existing coverage line by line and helped identify individual disability options that would travel with the client across Tennessee and Virginia.
Coverage that isn't tied to a single employer or state.
