“Hennessey, Thames, & Leavitt and my representative, are awesome to work with for your insurance needs! We insure our house and multiple vehicles through them. I’d say they are the best in MS, but I still use them after moving out of the state over 10 years ago. I’ve been a customer for nearly 18 years in all!!! HTL takes care of all my needs with speed, accuracy, and a great attitude!”

“I recently had an incident where my mortgage company made an error in my yearly escrow tally and statement showing that I owed over $1,000.00 dollars by May 1st and that my monthly note would go up about $60.00 per month. Talbot Buys of Hennessey, Thames & Leavitt had originally helped me with insurance coverage and helped me (with numerous calls and a lot of digging) to finally figure out the error and it is being corrected by my mortgage company. Five stars for Talbot Buys who is a professional from the word go to the last goodbye. Excellent customer service. Wish more companies had such employees that really care for the customers needs. Thanks again to Talbot!”

“My insurance rates have risen constantly over the past few years. Talbot Buys ask me to give him a shot at my business and I agreed. I felt like there was really no way he could do anything different that what we already have. Thankfully I was very mistaken. Talbot was able to secure me insurance at a much lower rate that I previously had with better coverage. Talbot is my nephew and I do not believe in simply giving someone my business I believe if someone wants my business they have to earn it. Talbot earned it and has continued to provide me with tha most professional service I have possibly ever received. Thank You for a professional job very well done. John Buys Owner Cold Rush Ice.”

We greatly appreciated that. He found us good rates and he took time to write all the details in a thorough email, to clearly and completely explain each policy to us. We are very grateful to Talbot and the Hennessy Agency and we look forward to many years of doing business together. Dr. & Mrs. Brent Thomas.”

Jim Veazey

“I have used Jared Thames as my insurance agent for one year now and couldn't be happier. Jared has shopped around for the best prices available for multiple types of insurance on my behalf, and has repeatedly given me good, fair prices. In addition, Jared has always put my needs before his pocketbook. At one time, I had a car insurance outside of Jared, and he recommended me to stay with that company because the plan was so good. He could have chosen to pressure me into something that would benefit A year later he worked out a multi policy discount and was actually beat out a very competitive insurance plan for my vehicles. Finally, Jared is very responsive with phone calls. He always gets back to me very quickly and will sit and walk me through complicated policy details on a regular basis. All in all, I couldn't be happier with this service and will be using this company for *life*. - Josh M”

“I want to personally thank Renee for reaching out to me about significantly lowering the cost our home insurance . This company has done exceptional service that hasn't been seen in a long time. Several years ago I worked as a Customer Service Rep for an agency in another state and part of our job was to see why a policy would have huge increase and then find a better solution to lowering the cost (i.e., shop other companies within the agency, change deductibles, etc), I had yet to find an agency that has done that until HTL reached out me. Thank you for looking out for us and keeping us as a customer. HT&L Agency is on your side to help you get the best rates possible for your needs!”
