The appointment follows a comprehensive nationwide search, conducted with the involvement of Bowlin and Sunstar’s senior leadership, to identify a successor. Meyerowitz was selected for his proven track record of scaling insurance brokerage businesses, establishing deep industry relationships and operating within larger, growth-oriented platforms. He will come aboard with a mandate to accelerate Sunstar’s next phase by expanding the company’s geographic footprint, scaling its capabilities, deepening its already-robust carrier relationships and continuing to attract high-caliber agency partners.

“After 13 years of building Sunstar from the ground up, I could not be more confident that we have found the right person to lead our company into its next chapter,” said Bowlin. “I have known Adam personally and professionally for over a decade, and my respect for him only deepened my conviction that he is the right fit for this moment. He brings the experience, the relationships and the operating instincts Sunstar needs at this stage of our growth. I look forward to supporting him as we continue to build something truly remarkable.”

Meyerowitz brings more than 20 years of insurance brokerage leadership to the role. He co-founded Prime Risk Partners in 2014, growing it into a top 40 U.S. broker before its 2019 acquisition by EPIC Insurance Brokers & Consultants, where Meyerowitz subsequently served as Chief Operating Officer.

“Sunstar has built something genuinely rare in this industry—a people-first culture, a consistent growth model and a reputation that speaks for itself,” said Meyerowitz. “I have admired this company for years, and I am honored to have the opportunity to lead it forward. My focus will be on building upon this foundation, continuing to demonstrate to our current and future partner firms why Sunstar provides the resources, expertise and support they need for success.”

Meyerowitz will join Sunstar’s seasoned management team, which has decades of insurance brokerage experience and is augmented by a group of regional leaders who are highly respected industry veterans.

“We are very excited to welcome Adam to the Sunstar team as our new CEO,” remarked Greg Lottes, Sunstar’s President and COO. “His experience and leadership in our industry will be a tremendous asset as we continue to grow and evolve as an organization. I am very confident Adam is the right person to lead Sunstar to new heights, and I look forward to partnering with him to continue the momentum we’ve all worked so hard to build.”

Sunstar is a portfolio company of Reverence Capital Partners (“Reverence”), which acquired a majority stake in the firm in 2024 to accelerate its development through organic expansion and strategic acquisitions. As part of that partnership, Reverence played an active role in the CEO succession process, working alongside Sunstar’s leadership to identify an executive capable of continuing to scale the firm.

“Casey is one of the great entrepreneurs in the insurance brokerage industry, and the business he has built at Sunstar is a testament to his vision and leadership,” added Milton Berlinski, Reverence Capital Partners Managing Partner. “We are equally excited about what comes next. Adam is exactly the kind of experienced, growth-oriented executive who can step in day one to lead the firm, and we look forward to supporting him and the entire Sunstar team as they write the next chapter of this company’s story.”

Sunstar is a retail insurance brokerage platform providing Commercial P&C, Personal P&C and Employee Benefits brokerage services to small- and medium-sized businesses, as well as individuals, across the Southeast and Midwest United States. The firm operates 58 agencies across nine states, employs more than 930 professionals, and places over $2 billion in premiums annually.
