About Us

Founded in 1996 Döhle Assekuranzkontor operates as an independent marine insurance broker. We are a team of 20 insurance and shipping specialists focusing on the maritime insurance industry, serving clients with excellent claims handling and administration work as well as consulting services. In 2004 the department in charge of all non-marine and private lines was restructured and has been growing steadily ever since.

We are defined by our trusting and long-term relationships with our clients and our insurers. Our mission is to be your truly capable and professional partner not only by holding strong values but especially by delivering transparency, innovative risk management and comprehensive marine insurance expertise.

Together with our clients we then select the risk carriers in accordance with our client’s preferences, claims handling expertise and any other requirements.
