For three generations, since 1931 the Lappan Agency has been serving clients throughout Michigan. During that time, the Lappan Agency has established itself as one of Northeast Michigan’s leading independent insurance agencies.
Founded in 1931 C.C. “Sam” Lappan, Grandfather of the current owners, brothers Tom & Steve Lappan, the agency has thrived on the simple idea that affordable insurance and professional service can be marketed for any risk through a hometown agency. Quality service has become synonymous with the name.

Originally, the agency was housed in a small office attached to the home of Sam and Sarah Lappan in downtown Alpena. As the agency grew, the Lappan Agency diversified into multiple lines of insurance and Sam’s sons Jim and Jack joined the agency in the 1950’s. During the next twenty plus years led by Jim and Jack Lappan the agency grew and continued to implement quality customer service. In 1972 the agency relocated to more spacious surroundings at 180 S. Ripley Blvd in Alpena. In 1973, Tom Lappan, upon graduation from college joined his father Jim. In 1985, Steve joined the agency after working in the insurance industry in California. In 1986 Jim retired and sold the agency to Tom & Steve. In 2004, the Lappan Agency moved into a new and larger office building located on the same premises. The old building that had served the agency well was removed.
