"Out of more than 4,000 producers, DIS consistently leads in sales production," Vice President Tom Petersen says. "Over the years, DIS has positioned itself as the industry's DI problem solver.

While many industries are struggling, the disability insurance segment is thriving in the wake of economic turmoil. "Today more than ever, consumers understand what it means to lose a paycheck. This heightened awareness has created the ideal environment for disability insurance sales," says Petersen. "We look forward to continuing our longtime business partnership and continuing to build on our outstanding relationship with the team at DIS."
