Liam Benson Joins Old Colony Insurance

Liam Benson has joined Old Colony Insurance as part of its team of farm and equine agents.

Benson, who grew up doing everything from foaling mares to training horses of racing age on his family's Ocala farm, attended the Equine Industry Program at the University of Louisville. He joined the stallion nominations team at Taylor Made Farm in 2017, while also managing his family's boarding operation in Lexington.

“I'm looking forward to joining the team at Old Colony in a way that I can continue to be around horses, while not having to focus in on a single facet of the industry at all times. It's great to be joining a team with such broad ranging experience,” Benson said.

“I've known Liam since he was at U of L and am thrilled to have him on the team,” said John David Christman, director of Old Colony's Farm & Equine division. “His background on the family farm, the racetrack and at Taylor Made, position him for a successful career in the bloodstock insurance business. He understands and embraces the Old Colony standards of unparalleled customer service and 24/7 accessibility.”
