About Us

Martinez & Associates Insurance Services - About Us
Martinez Insurance was founded about 33 years ago by my father-in-law, Alejandro F. Martinez. He started out of his garage & had a small stack of client folders on his desk. He loved people & talking to them & learning about their lives. While he was starting out, he did substitute teaching to supplement his family income. He would pick up business by going to car lots & giving them pizzas & handing out business cards. Soon, his clientele picked up & he was able to do insurance full time. He opened a little office spot in downtown Odessa in the Petroleum building & then purchased a vintage house at 601 Dotsy where our business still stands today.

Sadly, Alejandro passed away on Tuesday, September 6, 2011, the day after Labor Day weekend. My mother-in-law tried to take over the business for a couple of years with Paul Matthew Lopez running the daily operations of quoting, selling & customer service! Matthew soon received his license & after two years I received my license along with Matthew & I took over the agency.

I currently have three employees with Matthew as an Agent/Office Manager, Liliana Salcido as our CSR/File Clerk and our new hire Alyssa Galindo as our CSR/Receptionist.

We service all of Texas and I am in the process of beginning to serve New Mexico as well!

I'd like to thank all of our customers who have been loyal from the very beginning, who knew Alejandro, and we so appreciate all of your referrals!"
