Hampton Roads’ Trusted Independent Insurance Agency – Nofplot Insurance
How It Started – A Family Built on Insurance
We have been part of the Hampton Roads community for more than 36 years. The agency was founded by Manuel G. Nofplot Jr., who built it from the ground up on a simple belief – that families and businesses in southeastern Virginia deserved real insurance guidance from people who would pick up the phone, learn their situation, and be there when it mattered most. When his son, Tripp Nofplot, completed the agency’s succession program and took over as owner, that belief did not change. It got stronger. The name on the building changed from father to son, but the commitment to every client remained exactly the same.
What We Do Differently
We are an independent insurance agency, which means we represent multiple top-rated carriers – not just one. When you come to us for a quote, we shop Nationwide, Liberty Mutual, Travelers, Progressive, and others on your behalf to find the combination of coverage and price that actually fits your life. There is no script, no upsell pressure, and no one-size-fits-all answer. We sit on your side of the table.
Our team holds credentials you will not find at every agency in the area. Tripp holds a Commercial Lines Coverage Specialist (CLCS) designation. Angela Wells brings more than 31 years of industry experience and holds the AINS, AIS, and LUTCF designations. Danielle Hargrove has been with the agency for 20 years, holds her Property & Casualty and Life licenses, and earned her degree in finance from ODU. Together, our team brings over 80 combined years of insurance experience — and we use every bit of it on behalf of our clients.
What We Cover – and Who We Serve
We serve individuals, families, homeowners, renters, landlords, and business owners across Norfolk, Virginia Beach, Chesapeake, Portsmouth, Suffolk, Hampton, and the surrounding Hampton Roads area. Our personal lines team specializes in auto, homeowners, condo, renters, RV, boat, motorcycle, ATV, collector car, and flood insurance. Our commercial team handles business owners policies (BOPs), commercial auto, general liability, commercial property, workers’ compensation, professional liability, surety bonds, and industry-specific coverage across dozens of business categories.
Whether you are insuring your first home, protecting a fleet of vehicles, or need a specialty package for a high-value property or unique business, we have the carrier relationships and product depth to make it happen – under one roof.
Our Roots in This Community
We believe insurance is a local business. It always has been. That is why we have stayed active in the communities we serve – supporting Norview High School, St. Pius X School in Virginia Beach, the Roosevelt Area Civic League, the Little Creek American Legion, and local recreational programs throughout Hampton Roads. We are not a name on a billboard or a phone number on an app. We are your neighbors, and we are here.
