About Us
Green Financial is located in Kirkland, WA and has been serving the insurance and investment
needs of clients in Washington State since 1986. We offer businesses and individuals a full
range of financial services. As an established industry leader with a proven
record of reliable, courteous service, we are well qualified to walk you through the
confusing maze of insurance and investment options.
Our service does not stop there. Our staff will explain your options, help you through the
enrollment process, and we are always available for questions, employee meetings, claims and billing
assistance.
Whether developing employee benefit plans or an individual financial plan,
we provide comprehensive research and in depth analysis to deliver strategies and solutions
in a clear, concise and understandable format.
We build our reputation on serving each client as if he or she were our only client. The
personal attention that our representatives provide is one of the primary reasons that our clients become partners for life.
We are honored to have been selected as the regional "broker of choice" by the
WAHealth.org network for Washington State.
As licensed brokers, we represent you, the client, whereas licensed agents represent
the insurance company. In Washington, although many agents refer to themselves as brokers,
less than 5% of the insurance professionals are actually licensed brokers, the rest are
licensed agents.
