I rarely take the time to write reviews, but my experience with Garrett Barbera and Kaila Brown at PEO Brokers Network deserves recognition. I own a construction company in California and recently found myself in an extremely difficult situation with my workers' compensation insurance. After a claim resulted in a significant increase in my experience modification rating, my insurance carrier declined to renew my policy. My insurance broker approached numerous carriers without success, and the only quote I was able to obtain was approximately $70,000 annually. For a small business with just two employees, that was simply not a realistic option. I contacted Garrett hoping there might be another solution, although I wasn't particularly optimistic given everything I had already been through. What happened next exceeded my expectations. Garrett immediately understood the situation and knew exactly where to look for alternatives. He was knowledgeable, straightforward, responsive, and clearly experienced in handling difficult workers' compensation situations. Rather than simply shopping the same insurance markets that had already rejected my company, he approached the problem differently and found a solution through PEOPLEASE that was dramatically more affordable. Just as importantly, his assistant Kaila was exceptional throughout the entire process. She was organized, responsive, and diligent in coordinating the many documents, questions, and underwriting requirements involved. Whenever something needed attention, Kaila was on top of it. The two of them worked extremely well together, and I always felt that my situation was being taken seriously. What impressed me most was that neither Garrett nor Kaila treated my company like a difficult account that wasn't worth their time. They treated me like a valued client and stayed focused on finding a workable solution. I've been in the construction business for over 25 years, and I know the difference between someone simply selling a service and someone who genuinely knows their business and delivers results. Garrett and Kaila did exactly that. They turned what appeared to be an almost impossible insurance situation into an affordable solution that allowed me to move forward with confidence. I cannot recommend Garrett, Kaila, and PEO Brokers Network highly enough. If you're a business owner struggling with workers' compensation insurance, particularly if you've been turned down elsewhere, I would strongly encourage you to give them a call. Thank you both for the outstanding service and for making such a meaningful difference to my business. Levi Keefauver Owner, Spot On ConstructionPosted on Google

Kip JacksonOctober 31, 2025Garrett was amazing and incredibly transparent from the first call to the last call. I started in the morning asking for the best rates for worker's comp insurance, and I had a multiple quotes by the afternoon. He far exceeded my expectations, and saved me about 100,000 a year. That's insane to think about, but its 💯 percent true. I will be referring all my peers to Garrett!Posted on Google

I was having a difficult time finding a carrier that was affordable. PEO Insurance Brokers found a price under $10k per month which was $7k per month lower than his current policy.
