Meet Our Team
Patrick A. Burke
Founder and Principal (since 2002)
Patrick started his insurance career in 1969 in the Lloyd's marketplace in London and moved to the USA in 1979 where he has represented Lloyd's and the London market continuously through various US companies and agencies, developing a strong, long term, relationship with Underwriters over several decades. Patrick’s core specialty has been the custom design of creative contractual liability insurance solutions for the automotive industry, both dealers and lenders, using a combination of traditional insurance coverage and alternative risk structures with a clear understanding & respect for the need to protect the proprietary interests of both Clients and Insurers at all times, thereby creating the greatest opportunity for long-term, and mutually beneficial, relationships between all parties. Recently, through the equity agreement with Sean Caldwell, Trafalgar has expanded its product focus to include the RV, Heavy Equipment, Marine, and Power Sports markets.
