William Palmer Managing Partner at Hatcher Insurance

William J. Palmer

Partner at Hatcher Insurance

Billy brings over fifteen years of industry experience spanning production, sales leadership, agency management, and leading broad regions for national and regional independent agencies. He began his career in 2006 as a Property & Casualty and Surety Producer at The J. Rolfe Davis Insurance Agency in Orlando, FL.

In 2008 after the agency was acquired by BB&T Insurance Services, he became the Managing Director of the Orlando location with over 140 associates.

From 2008-2020, Billy continued to grow with the organization – leading the Florida operations and ultimately, the Southeast Region of McGriff Insurance Services (which BB&T re-branded to after the acquisition of Regions Insurance Group) which included over 20 locations and 500 associates in multiple states including Florida, Arkansas, Louisiana, and portions of Texas.

In late 2020 – along with partners, Billy purchased Hatcher Insurance with the goal of creating a client-centric, super-regional, independent insurance firm.

Billy graduated from The University of Notre Dame with a double-major in Economics and Marketing and played football. Outside of work, he enjoys spending time with my family, hunting and fishing, playing golf, and traveling.
