Higginbotham and Construction Casualty Insurance Form Strategic Partnership
FORT WORTH, Texas, April 29, 2025 — Higginbotham, the largest independent insurance, financial, and HR services firm headquartered in Texas, has formed a strategic alliance with Construction Casualty Insurance (CCI) of St. Petersburg, Florida. This partnership combines Higginbotham’s Day Two Services® with CCI’s CompCorrect®, an advanced AI-driven risk management platform.
Higginbotham Chairman and CEO Rusty Reid emphasized the shared values between the two firms, particularly their dedication to client service and risk management. “CCI brings impressive construction capabilities, deep regional expertise, and a strong team with a great reputation,” Reid said. “Their passion for risk management and development of CompCorrect — one of the most powerful risk management tools we’ve seen — truly sets them apart.”
CompCorrect is CCI’s proprietary cloud-based platform that leverages AI to assess multiple variables, automate stakeholder communications, and apply state-specific regulations to reduce claim costs and improve outcomes. The system also analyzes historical claims to identify areas for improvement and potential cost savings.
“When a claim comes in, CompCorrect goes to work,” explained CCI President and CEO Brad Dempton. “It engages with the insured, injured employee, our claims and loss control teams, and the carrier, pulling data, sending alerts, and keeping the process moving until resolution.”
The integration of CompCorrect into Higginbotham’s Day Two Services aims to enhance their risk management capabilities for high-risk clients nationwide. CCI Partner and Senior Vice President Tobin Robeck noted the synergy between the firms, stating, “There is tremendous synergy between our firms. We strongly believe that every person within and outside our organization is in a better position than they were before the transaction with Higginbotham.”
As part of their commitment to the partnership, the CCI team acquired a significant equity position in Higginbotham. “We are so committed to growing this relationship that we’ve reinvested in it,” Dempton said.
