Carroll Insurance was founded by John and Gil Carroll in 1980; was passed down to the next generation in 2001; and today is led by David B. Carroll and Jason Knecht, the original owners’ grandchildren. Officials said the company has grown since the two cousins took over ownership, and after 40 years located at 14906 FM 529, Houston, they broke ground on a new office space in August.

The business offers a range of services, including risk management, business insurance, employee benefits, personal insurance and surety bonds.
