In 1959, Henry J. Miltenberger opened the doors of his business with a single client and a single goal. That client was the Louisiana State Bar Association, and the goal was to provide unsurpassed customer service and quality products to meet his client's needs. And Group Insurance Louisiana State BAR (GILSBAR) was born.

Now nearly 50 years later, we are still a privately-held company. Our first customer is still our largest client, and a strong partner. Over the years we have extended the principles applied in our first partnership, working hard to build and maintain our integrity. We have grown our business and lines of coverage, which now extend to an array of health plan management and administrative services, as well as professional and personal lines.

As our business continues to grow, we maintain a clear focus on our goals and our values. We share these with you, as they are the keys to our success.
