A Woman-Owned Independent Agency Built on Advocacy
“about Covella Insurance Partners · independent insurance agents Cincinnati · Carly Shah”
Independent
we work for you, not a single carrier.
Woman-owned and led
a values-driven team that partners especially well with women-owned and family businesses.

Consultative
real reviews, not order-taking
Our approach
We start every relationship with a conversation about what you’re protecting and what you can’t afford to lose. From there we compare carriers, explain your options in plain English, and recommend the coverage that actually fits — commercial or personal. We bring decades of combined industry expertise and a hands-on, detail-driven process to every account, from a contractor’s general liability policy to a high-value home.

Request a Certificate of Insurance
A certificate of insurance (COI) is proof that you carry active coverage — often required before you can start a job, sign a lease, or satisfy a lender. Covella clients can request a COI using the form below; we turn most requests around the same day or the next business day. Tell us who needs to be listed (and whether they need to be an additional insured) and where to send it.
