Why Choose The Mike Leonard Agency in Frisco,TX?
Why Choose The Mike Leonard Agency in Frisco,TX?
We are an Independent insurance agency which differs greatly from that of a captive agent such as Allstate, State Farm, Farmers, etc. A captive agent has only the rates of that one individual company to offer his customers as opposed to an Independent which can offer the rate of many different companies.
This is important because all insurance companies go through times when they sustain losses and have to dramatically increase rates. When this happens The Mike Leonard Insurance Agency searches the marketplace for a new company with lower rates here in Frisco. The captive agent can’t help you with a new company because they are contractually obligated to write and renew every customer with that company.

Did You Know
When the Dallas area was being settled by American pioneers, many of the settlers traveled by wagon trains along the old Shawnee Trail. This trail was also used for cattle drives north from Austin. This trail later became the Preston Trail, and later, Preston Road. With all of this activity, the community of Lebanon was founded along this trail and granted a U.S. post office in 1860. In 1902, a line of the St. Louis-San Francisco Railway was being built through the area, and periodic watering holes were needed along the rails for the steam engines. The current settlement of Lebanon was on the Preston Ridge and was thus too high in elevation, so the watering hole was placed about four miles (6 km) to the west on lower ground. A community grew around this train stop. Residents of Lebanon actually moved their houses to the new community on logs. The new town was originally named Emerson, but that name was rejected by the U.S. Postal Service as being too similar to another town in Texas. In 1904, the residents chose Frisco City in honor of the St. Louis-San Francisco Railway on which the town was founded, later shortened to its present name.
