From the trades to the waterfront.
Contractors Choice Agency was founded in 2005 by people from the trades. That background is why we understand what’s at stake when a marine crew member is hurt on navigable water and the carrier denies the claim because there’s no Jones Act coverage — or when a barge sinks and the equipment isn’t scheduled.
Contractors Choice Agency founded
Josh Cotner opens CCA in Chandler, AZ, after years working in the trades — built to insure contractors the right way.
Expanded to marine & maritime markets
After placing programs for dozens of contractor categories, CCA deepens its focus on marine and waterfront construction crews with unique over-water risk profiles.
Dedicated marina contractor division
Marina Contractor Insurance focuses CCA's expertise on marine contractors — crews where Jones Act gaps, sunken equipment, and over-water losses are the real risks.

Four things we won’t compromise on.
Maritime-first, always
We know the Jones Act, USL&H, and the watercraft exclusions that generic brokers miss. We speak the language of marine construction because we know what happens when over-water coverage fails at claim time.
Coverage that closes the gaps
Missing Jones Act coverage, unscheduled barges, and watercraft exclusions — we address the maritime exposures standard markets miss or exclude.
A-rated marine markets only
We shop carriers with the financial strength and marine-construction experience to be there when a drowning, crane collapse, or storm loss hits.
Honest, no-pressure advice
If you don't need a line of coverage, we'll tell you. We earn trust by being straight about what your marine crew actually requires.
