Our Mission
Our mission is to simplify Medicare and retirement decisions through clear education, honest guidance, and personalized support. We help clients choose coverage and strategies that fit their needs, budget, and lifestyle, then remain a trusted resource as those needs change.
About Nevada Insurance Consultants
Nevada Insurance Consultants was founded in 2023 by Patty Lebedoff after decades of helping people navigate insurance, Medicare, and retirement decisions. Patty built the agency around a simple idea: clients deserve clear explanations, personal attention, and a dependable place to call after the paperwork is complete.
This approach came from years of sitting across the table from people trying to make important decisions while feeling overwhelmed by too much information and not enough personal guidance. We’ve learned that a plan can look great on paper but if it’s not executed and monitored it can go astray. . Our role is to slow things down, ask the questions that matter, and help each client understand the options and tradeoffs before making a decision.
Today, Nevada Insurance Consultants serves clients from offices in Reno and Carson City and works with individuals throughout Northern Nevada and across the state. The agency remains intentionally relationship-focused. Clients receive guidance when they first enroll, but they also have support when premiums change, new plan information arrives, or life takes an unexpected turn.
What Makes Us Different
Nevada Insurance Consultants combines the flexibility of an independent brokerage with the personal service of a local office. We consider options from multiple insurance carriers and help clients make informed decisions based on their retirement goals, financial needs, and changing circumstances—not a sales quota or one company’s products.
Our relationship continues as life changes. Whether a client is retiring, facing an unexpected event, adjusting income needs, or reviewing insurance coverage, we’re here to help them understand how those changes may affect their overall retirement plan. That ongoing guidance—and knowing they have a local team to call—is why so many of our clients stay with us and refer their friends and family.
Our Approach
Our approach comes from years of working with people facing important decisions while sorting through too much information and too little personal guidance. We understand that even a strong plan can fall off track without careful execution and regular monitoring. Patty built the agency on a simple belief: clients deserve clear explanations, personal attention, and a dependable resource long after the paperwork is complete.
Our role is to slow the process down, ask meaningful questions, and help each client understand their options and tradeoffs before deciding.
