Insurance isn’t something that is often spoken about in a positive light, but the president of North Castle Insurance Agency in Armonk-North Castle, New York, Joseph Giardina knows that this industry can break or make a client. Recovery is a big part of insurance. He and his team understand that it is important to be sensitive, empathetic, and professional when it comes to life’s tragedies. “Nothing is permanent, and we can be here one day and then gone the next. Life is about taking care of one another because anything could happen to you in a heartbeat. We want to be the rock for those that are filing a claim.”
Life insurance is an important part of Joseph Giardina’s policies to choose from. He explains how vital it is when you or a loved one passes away, there will be a security to hold on to while healing can commence. When he first started in insurance, he and his brother shared a building where Joseph ran insurance in the front, and his brother ran a construction company in the back. “One day, I was talking with one of my brother’s employees, who had four children. He was a family man and lived a modest life. I had a tough conversation with him about what would become of his family if something ever happened to him. He listened and agreed that a life insurance policy was the smart thing to have. I sold him a 20-year, $500,000 term policy.”
Unfortunately, about two years later, the man passed away from a tragic accident. “O got to give his widow Sadly, only two years later, the man had a tragic accident and died instantly. “When I attended his wake, I gave his widow a check for $500,000. Although the money would never bring her husband back, she did have financial security, which was badly needed in such a time of sorrow. When you buy life insurance, I firmly believe you are putting your family first ,” Joseph Giardina says.

For twenty years, Joseph Giardina has been advising clients on how – and why – to choose the best insurance policies for their needs. “I like to think I help people make decisions that will benefit themselves and their families,” Joseph Giardina says. “I meet people at pivotal times of their lives. Some are excited about buying their first home but unsure how to protect their investment. Some are teens who just got a car and are learning the responsibilities that come with it. Others are buying life insurance for their families. No matter the situation, my team and I sit down with each client and help them be sure they know exactly what they are purchasing.”

Life insurance is one of the top three policies that Joe’s clients buy. “It’s a very wise decision,” he says, “because while we would all like to live forever, none of us will.
