What we insure

Coverage built around your home, family and business

From a first apartment to a waterfront home, from a family shop to a middle-market company, we build coverage that fits, not just a policy that's sold.

Personal Insurance

Protect the people and places that matter most

Your home is where you raise your family and make your most precious memories. We protect it from fire, water, Mother Nature's fury, liability and theft, offer confidential property inspections to help prevent claims, and keep your coverage ready for rebuilding as construction costs rise.

Business Insurance

Commercial coverage has been our focus since 1929

We insure everything from small family businesses to middle-market companies with $100mm+ in annual revenue, from off-the-shelf small business policies to custom programs underwritten through Lloyd's of London.

Life, Health & Disability Insurance

For many parents, the most valuable asset isn't the home or retirement account, it's the ability to earn an income. Our team offers every type of life insurance and disability policy on the market.

Our Story

Chappaqua's hometown agency, since 1929

Founded by Erik Nicolaysen II, Nicolaysen Agency has served personal and commercial clients from the same spot on Greeley Avenue for generations, guided by a steadfast commitment to being the trusted local insurance professional.

  • 1929 — Erik Nicolaysen II founds the agency in Chappaqua.
  • 1970 — His son, Erik Nicolaysen III, takes over managing the agency and later builds the current office on the same lot.
  • Today — Erik's grandson Bryan leads the agency, adding expertise in high-value personal lines and specialty commercial coverage.
