Why Carlstan
A Different Kind of Insurance Agency
Founded in 1948
Over 75 years of continuous operation in the New York market — three generations of the same family, the same office, the same commitment.
Same Agents, Every Call
You'll work directly with Adam or Ryan Erickson. No rotating staff. No re-explaining. The agent who quoted your policy picks up when you call.
Small, Fast, and Flexible
We're a small agency by design. Most quotes are turned around in one business day. Certificates, changes, and questions are handled the same day in most cases.
Always Reachable
Email is monitored 24/7. Voicemail is checked regularly. When something comes up outside office hours, we don't disappear.
Truly Independent
We're not tied to any single carrier. We shop the market at every renewal to find the right placement for your needs.
Trusted Choice & Big I Member
Membership in Trusted Choice and IIABA means a commitment to ethical, client-first advocacy — not carrier revenue.
Who We Are
Three Generations. One Agency. 75 Years in the New York Market.
Carlstan Insurance Agency was founded in 1948 by our grandfather, right here in the New York metro area. Today, Adam and Ryan Erickson run the agency from our Melville office — the same family, the same commitment, and the same direct service that clients have counted on for over 75 years.
We're a small agency. Not as a limitation — as a choice. When you work with Carlstan, you're not handed off to a service team or routed through a call center. You work with the same agents every time. They know your policies, your history, and your name before you finish dialing.
As an independent agency and proud members of Trusted Choice and the Big I, we're not tied to any single carrier. We shop top-rated insurers at every renewal to make sure you're getting the right coverage at the right price.
We serve businesses and residents across Suffolk County, Nassau County, and all five boroughs of New York City. Licensed in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut.
