Nelson C. Espeland: Allstate Insurance
You can view my financial industry experience and background at FINRA’s BrokerCheck
Local Allstate Agent: Meet Nelson C. Espeland
The Espeland family is proud to have served Allstate customers in our Scotch Plains location since 1982. I am a second generation agent who learned a great deal from my father prior to taking over the agency in 2000. While much has changed within the industry over the years, my agency’s core commitment to customers and my community remains the same.
I am an active volunteer for various community organizations’ such as Habitat for Humanity of Greater Plainfield & Middlesex County, Homefirst Interfaith Housing and Family Services’ Inc., and the Summit Area YMCA. I also earned the prestigious Life Underwriter Training Council Fellow designation in 1999, which has enabled me to assist customers with financial services and life insurance. I am passionate about helping people learn how to protect the assets that they have worked so hard to earn, and to shield the families that they love from misfortune.
