Home » About Our Agency

Our Michigan based agency has been insuring families and businesses for over 35 years. We look forward to serving you.

We’re small, family-owned, and very personal.

River City Insurance Group, founded by John Layton, has been helping Michigan residents with their insurance needs for over 35 years. His commitment and imaginative thinking have enabled him to acquire a devoted set of clients, with raving reviews to show his customer service with a personal touch. John and his team’s knowledge and experience drives River City Insurance Group to help you find insurance solutions for you, your family, or your business.

We take pride in our agency, our community, and the clients we serve.

As an independent agency, we offer you choice by working with a variety of top-rated national and regional insurance carriers. We are driven to provide outstanding service to our clients, by working for you, not the insurance company. Since we are located within your community, we are familiar with the risks you face.

We’re proud to be part of the community.

Our agency was originally located within the Lincoln Financial Group offices near the East Beltline and Burton in Grand Rapids, Michigan, while John started the work of setting up his own business. For a few years, John was based in a rented office space near downtown Grand Rapids, situated at the northern end of Monroe Avenue. Our journey to find a location for our business concluded in Marne, MI, located a mere 15 minutes away from Grand Rapids. After residing in Marne for a number of years, John and Jan were finally prepared to buy their own building just one and a half miles from their home. Marne, MI has been an ideal environment for both raising a family and nurturing a business. We take great pleasure in attending events which offer us the chance to meet our clients and friends, such as Lions Club Lenten Fish Fries, the Memorial Day Parade, Coopersville Chamber, and school activities. We are proud to serve clients in West Michigan and beyond.
