EPIC Welcomes Seasoned Professional Expanding Private Client Practice
The Private Client team continues to expand by adding longtime Sports and Entertainment industry expert Matt Allen as Principal. His extensive expertise in thoughtful risk management for professional athletes as well as other individuals and families is instrumental to developing and enhancing strategic relationships within the national private client segment.
Allen has dedicated his career to providing sports professionals with specialized risk management, disability insurance, and asset protection solutions. With a keen understanding of the complex needs of athletes, he founded The Professional Athlete Insurance Group, a boutique agency designed to manage the unique lifestyles and insurance risks of individuals in sports. Most recently, Allen served as Director of Sports & Entertainment at Gregory & Appel, where his expertise and leadership were instrumental. With over 18 years of experience in the insurance industry, Allen will be an invaluable asset to EPIC’s growing Private Client practice, bringing unparalleled knowledge and a proven track record of excellence.
“Every decision I have made throughout my career has been with one goal in mind; to offer athletes and their families world class service and value,” said Allen. “Joining EPIC reflects the same culture and work ethic. The firm’s robust resources allow me to continue to provide custom tailored and effective solutions for clients in the sports industry.”
Allen joined EPIC at the start of 2025 under the leadership of Steve Nelson, Chief Growth Officer, EPIC Private Client. “Matt’s dedication to advocating in the clients’ best interest is impressive,” said Nelson. “We are proud to have him join our private client team and look forward to working together to support clients with the customized solutions they need.”
