“If you take care of Baltimore, Baltimore will take care of you.”
Growing up, Richard Silberstein watched his father, Dr. Charles Silberstein, a physician at Johns Hopkins who was renowned for his generous care for the under served, care for his patients as he would care for his own family. While Richard knew that pursuing a career in medicine was not the path for him, he realized he had a strong desire to help people.
When Richard first entered the insurance industry, he worked in downtown Baltimore and had lunch every Monday with his grandfather, Louis Silberstein, a successful lawyer who often provided free legal counsel to those unable to pay. One Monday, Louis said something that would forever shape the way Richard would conduct business: “If you take care of Baltimore, Baltimore will take care of you.”
Inspired by that advice, Richard founded Silberstein Insurance Group (SIG), an insurance and employee benefits firm dedicated to delivering exceptional service to its clients. Today, the SIG team consists of over 30 licensed employees who serve more than 400 corporate clients and hundreds of individual clients throughout the United States.
Since founding SIG in 1984, Richard has applied the principles instilled in him by his grandfather to not only take care of Baltimore, but to start by taking care of his employees. The result: employees who believe in helping clients the same way Richard does. This is why SIG has become one of the leading insurance consultants in the Mid-Atlantic region.
