Farmington Hills, Mich. (November 8, 2022) RB Jones, a leading Managing General Underwriter in specialty risk coverage solutions for brokers, agents and wholesalers, today announced the launch of its new professional liability division, RB Jones Professional.

RB Jones Professional will be led by Michael Muglia, who previously served as Burns & Wilcox National Underwriting Director, Professional Liability. In addition to Muglia, Tameka Livatino, Amber Browning, and Jonathan Lucken have also joined RB Jones. With the new title of Director, Muglia now reports to Mark Engel, Managing Director, RB Jones.

The team will immediately launch several programs including their flagship product ProConstruct, an exclusive program that provides professional liability coverage to a broad range of professionals within the construction lifecycle. Further expansion of professional products is planned for the coming months.

“We expect these programs to thrive by pairing Mike’s team of experienced underwriting specialists with the sophisticated underwriting systems currently in place at RB Jones,” said Engel. “Additionally, RB Jones distribution allows access to a wide range of business and will continue our track record of producing strong underwriting profit and long-term program success for brokers and clients.”

“We remain bullish on the opportunity for RB Jones to serve as a distinct destination for highly specialized capabilities and operate as a major growth driver for H.W. Kaufman Group,” said Jodie Kaufman Davis, Executive Vice President, H.W.
