Our Story

Built to serve. Prepared to protect.

All Assured Solutions is a veteran-owned, independent insurance and risk management agency serving business owners, families, and individuals in Virginia, Maryland, Washington, DC and North Carolina.

Why we exist

Insurance is only one piece of protection.

Families and business owners rarely experience risk in neat categories. A property loss can interrupt income. A cyber event can create legal problems. An employee benefit can influence retention. A life change can reshape an entire financial plan.

That is why we begin with discovery and a Risk Assessment. We look for the connections, identify the gaps and help clients prioritize practical solutions.

Helping More People. More Often. In More Ways.

This is not decoration on a wall. It is the standard behind how we serve: listen first, explain clearly, coordinate protection and remain accessible when life or business changes.

Our founder

Dial Douglas Burum II

Founder & CEO • U.S. Army Veteran • Community Leader

Military service taught Dial that preparation matters, details matter and people depend on you to do what you said you would do. Those lessons became the foundation of All Assured Solutions.

After seeing families and business owners handed confusing policies without enough explanation, Dial built an independent agency centered on listening first, educating clearly and helping clients understand how separate risks connect.
