About Mangold Insurance

Times were tough during the Great Depression. A Burlington banker wanted to make it a little easier for his neighbors by providing quality insurance protection when it was hard to get. So in 1933, James Mangold, Sr. started a small agency. His son, James Mangold, Jr., took over the business in 1959 and the third-generation namesake, James Mangold III, was named president in 1998. Today, Mangold Insurance remains family-owned and operated with 14 employees, clients in ten states and is one of the area’s largest independent insurance agencies. We have grown just like the insurance needs of our clients. Our founder’s inspiration, though, has stayed constant – neighbors helping neighbors. He would be proud.

Our responsibilities as neighbors also extend to the community. We proudly participate in the education of our local youth, including giving insurance presentations to business classes and participating in Burlington High School’s Reality Fair. We give our time and financial support to the Burlington Rescue Squad, 4H livestock auctions at several local County Fairs, Burlington High School Athletic Association, as well as many other youth clubs and activities. Our staff members volunteer in many non-profit & civic organizations including Kiwanis, Love Inc., Burlington Area Chamber of Commerce and Chocolatefest.

In 2019 we joined forces with Robertson Ryan & Associates, a Top 100 US Insurance Agency based in Milwaukee. Mangold Insurance remains locally owned and controlled by the Mangold family and our commitment to the community has not changed. Our partnership with Robertson Ryan allows us to expand the insurance programs and resources that we can bring to you. Learn More
