The Hilb Group LLC, a Henrico County-based insurance brokerage, said Thursday that it has acquired Texas-based Walker Myers Insurance & Risk Management LLC.
The deal, which became effective June 1, is The Hilb Group’s fourth acquisition this year. Financial terms were not disclosed.
The addition of Walker Myers continues The Hilb Group’s national expansion plan, the company said. It is the company’s first acquisition in Texas, which the company said marks the beginning of its Southwestern footprint.

The company has 29 offices in Georgia, Florida, Kentucky, Maryland, New York, North Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia and West Virginia.
