Noreen K., President – Technology Manufacturing
Our company has turned to GSQ for our business liability and workers comp insurance needs since 1998. Tom Quirk and his staff are available and responsive. Tom is great at translating “insurance speak” into an understanding of real-world scenarios and options, which has been a big help to us in clarifying our coverage needs and keeping costs down. As a small company, it feels great to know that GSQ has our back. The few small claims we’ve had were handled efficiently, with good outcomes. We have no hesitation in recommending GSQ for your business insurance needs.
Susanna H, VP, Finance & Human Resources – Technology
I’ve been working with Tom and his team for more than 10 years, and they have been instrumental in helping our business run smoothly. Problems usually arise out of nowhere, and typically you need answers now, even yesterday. Anything from Workers Compensation issues to helping navigate coverage requirements from my clients and getting us great pricing. You can always get a hold of Tom especially in the times when I need his help the most. Even caught him on vacation in Hawaii a few times, and whatever emergency I was having at the time, Tom coolly responded with his calm demeanor, steering me towards getting my problems resolved. Thanks Tom!
John S., President – Technology Staffing
Where to begin? Tom Quirk was instrumental in our company winning a dispute against the State of CA regarding Worker’s Comp classification problem for our entire industry. Many, many people owe him a debt of gratitude for saving them over 70% of premiums previously being paid. Additionally, he has been there 110% as a trusted advisor, and his assistant Bobbi Frazier has provided absolutely outstanding service to us as well. Could not recommend this company any higher, and could not imagine having to replace them!
Adrian C., President – Entertainment
Since the late 1980’s, Garland-Sturges & Quirk has been our Business insurance provider. One word would describe Tom and his team and that would be “Professionals”. Tom is always available to handle any questions and does so in a most deliberate and easy to understand way. Thanks for all your support over these years and best of luck in the future.
Tom T., President – Technology Services
Ten years ago my wife and I decided to open a restaurant, and we knew that we had to have coverage from different companies – one of them was insurance for the restaurant. We started looking and our consultant recommended Elizabeth Hernández to us. When he met her, Elizabeth gave us a lot of confidence due to her professional presentation and the way she explained the coverage.
Unfortunately, seven months after opening the restaurant we experienced a fire and Elizabeth accompanied us from that day until the last payment of the policy. She was always there for us.
Now we have a catering business and we do not doubt who would be our advisor. Elizabeth’s professionalism, her prompt response and her honesty is in her character and that is what makes us feel safe and peaceful in our business.

The insurance business can be challenging and confusing, I enjoy sharing my knowledge with my clients and celebrate their business growth.
Elizabeth Hernandez
Elizabeth is amazing! We needed SAM coverage for our dance company to secure city grant funding. The process was complicated and cost-prohibitive with every company that I called. Elizabeth knows the insurance space well, and with a daughter who is a dancer, I knew immediately I was in the right hands. Within days, she had an incredible quote for us that was, literally, 10% of the other policies that we found through other companies. She’s creative, smart, and committed to her clients’ success. We are lucky to have found her and appreciate all that she does.

Elizabeth siempre está ahí para apoyarme, guiarme y ayudarme en lo que necesito. Es muy reconfortante saber que ella esta ahÍ, que no estoy sola. ¡Muchas gracias Elizabeth!
