An independent agency, built on coverage discipline.
We started Summit because most insurance buying experiences felt like a transaction. The policy got placed, the binder got sent, and nobody read it again until someone had to file a claim. We built the agency we wanted to call.
Kansas's fastest-growing digital brokerage — built for the way insurance should work.
Summit Risk Solutions is an independent insurance brokerage based in Wichita, Kansas, led by technology and innovation. We're appointed with 50+ leading regional and national carriers across personal, commercial, and professional lines — which means when we shop your coverage, you're getting an actual market check, not a soft hand-off to a single carrier.
What sets us apart isn't just the carrier list. It's the combination of modern tools and disciplined coverage review. Every new policy gets a line-by-line walkthrough — limits, sub-limits, deductibles, definitions, and exclusions — supported by digital workflows that get certificates, claims, and renewals moving faster than the legacy agencies you've worked with before. If something doesn't make sense, we say so. If a competitor's quote is better than ours, we tell you that too.
Built by Kevin Dao.
Kevin started Summit Risk Solutions in Wichita with a simple thesis: independent insurance buying should feel modern, not transactional. Real coverage review, real carrier shopping, real follow-through at renewal — and a team you can actually reach.
Before launching Summit, Kevin worked across personal, commercial, and benefits lines — learning firsthand which carriers serve which risks well, and which leave clients holding the bag. That experience is the foundation for the way Summit shops, places, and services every policy today.

Five things we'll always do.
Read the policy.
Every binder gets reviewed before we hand it to you. Coverage gaps and weird endorsements get flagged in plain language.
Quote honestly.
If your current carrier is the right answer, we'll say so. We'd rather earn the next renewal than misdirect this one.
Show up at claim time.
We sit between you and the adjuster. That means reading the coverage decision, pushing back on denials, and escalating when needed.
Track renewals.
We benchmark your premium 60 days before renewal — every year, every account. No drift, no surprises.
Match advisor to need.
Different lines need different specialists. You'll work with someone who actually places that kind of business — not a generalist with a Rolodex.
Stay independent.
We're not owned by a carrier or a private-equity roll-up. The advice we give you is the same advice we'd give a friend.
A small agency by design.
Independent enough to choose any carrier. Big enough to get answers when you need them.
