First Acceptance Corporation Announces Demise of Larry Willeford, President

First Acceptance Corporation owns and operates Acceptance Insurance, an insurance agency that sells insurance and related products underwritten and serviced by its own insurance companies and through third-party carriers. The Company operates under an Agency Model in 15 states where it sells both its own underwritten insurance policies and those issued by third-party insurers. Acceptance Insurance sells non-standard personal automobile insurance written solely through independent agents. It also offers a variety of other commissionable third-party products, such as roadside assistance and, in most states, it also sells an insurance product for renters that it underwrites. Acceptance Insurance leases and operates retail locations staffed with employee-agents. It completes sales over the phone through employee-agents in its call center or through its consumer-based Website and mobile platform. It also sells its products through selected retail locations operated by independent agents.
