Bike-Raft Guide Service Owner and Author Lizzy Scully in Colorado

“I really appreciate the portal that Pachner & Associates created to help me access my insurance documents. It’s fast, reliable and I can get what I need in minutes. Really helpful when I’m managing a dozen permit applications! It’s a pleasure working with Don and David. Thanks so much for making my life easier.”


Adriane Arnold, CFO of The Woods Project in Houston, TX to the CEO of their new insurance carrier

“Don has been a delight to work with, as he is knowledgeable, conscientious, patient, enthusiastic, and thorough.   And we feel very lucky that [the insurance carrier] has approved us for membership!


National Parks Service Permit Administrator (Retired) Don Roberts of Joshua Tree National Park

“The insurance cert arrived today and it is perfect. Thank you for all your efforts. I’m copying this to [your customer] as well. I really appreciate all you’ve done. Its great to work with people like yourself who are willing to go the extra mile. Thank you!”


Customer Trebbie Johnson, Pullitzer Prize-winning author and operator of Vision Arrow wilderness vision quests and nonprofit environmental education organization Radical Joy for Hard Times

“I realize how hard you worked for me on this, and I want you to know I appreciate it! I’ve always taken a cynical attitude about all those TV ads about insurance companies taking their clients’ concerns personally, but you make me believe that some of what they say might actually be true!”

 “Thanks to you and all of the Pachner folks for absolutely the best customer service with our insurance needs that we’ve seen during 16 years in business!“
