We handle your benefits
so you can run your business.

No jargon, no runaround. Here's what working with us looks like.

We shop the market

Every renewal, we compare all competitive carriers and lay the options side by side — real rates, real plans, clear trade-offs. You pick what makes sense.

Medical · Dental · Vision · Life · Disability

We design the strategy

Contribution modeling, ACA compliance, plan design, ERISA documents — we handle the math and the paperwork so you can focus on the decision. Every client gets a branded enrollment portal and benefits review tools.

We stay with you

Enrollment, claims issues, mid-year changes, renewal negotiation. We don't disappear after the sale. This is a year-round relationship. Every client gets access to a secure employer portal with plan documents, cost modeling, and enrollment tools.

Not a group? We also help individuals and families find coverage through all major California carriers, and guide seniors through Medicare Supplement, Advantage, and Part D options. Same personal service, just for you.
💡

Our service is free to you. Carriers pay us the same commission whether you use a broker or go direct — so you get expert guidance at no additional cost.

Gabriel Caffrey

Built by family.
Run on trust.

Caffrey Insurance Solutions was founded by my mother, Lynn Caffrey. She started in insurance in 1975 and went independent in 1999 with a simple belief: insurance should be personal. You should know your broker by name, and they should know your business.

I joined the firm in 2010 and took ownership in 2016. When Mom passed in 2022, she entrusted us with her Medicare clients. The philosophy hasn't changed. We're still a small team. We still answer our own phone. And we still believe that the best way to earn your trust is to do right by your employees.

These guys rock. Period. Gabriel Caffrey has helped my startup navigate the complexities of health, dental, and vision insurance options. He is technically sound, and at the same time able to describe my insurance options in layman's terms. Simply put, Caffrey Insurance Solutions makes your life easier when it comes to your insurance needs.
Andrew Kitirattragarn — Founder, Dang Foods
Not only was Gabriel able to explain the tangled web of medical insurance in a manner that I was able to comprehend, but he implemented the insurance solutions for myself and my employees in such a manner that I barely had to do anything. If you want medical insurance, get a broker, and if you want the best, I really recommend you visit the Caffrey family!
Andrew Gregor — Owner, Blue Dog Construction
We have been working with Caffrey Insurance Solutions for over 3 years and are over the moon with their services. Gabriel goes above and beyond in supporting our team and coming up with workable solutions. He helped us set up our Gusto account as well as getting the best rates from health care services for us. I would recommend their team to anyone!
