About Us

Our clients want to ensure financial stability for themselves, their families, employees and businesses. For several decades, we have studied our clients and listened to them and our mission is, simply put, to help them reach their goals.

Our corporate clients want state of the art techniques for their benefit plans and they want their employees to understand the programs that are offered and appreciate the value of their employment relationship.

Our estate planning clients want an efficient plan to transfer assets, provide for their families and a well organized succession plan for their financial interests.

Our individual clients want to avoid the financial pitfalls that can emerge if they live too long or die too soon. Our aim is to provide clarity related to options and help our clients make educated decisions.

As a process-driven firm, The Bottoms Group continues to build strong relationships and evolve with the industry. Our commitment to our clients is our number one priority. The Bottoms Group is a member of National Financial Partners and an owner of Lion Street which are invitation-only leading producer groups of financial services products to high net worth individuals and companies. Our deep roots give our clients access to a wide array of financial solutions.

By leveraging our local presence with NFP and Lion Street’s national network we are able to provide our clients with cutting edge strategies for estate planning, executive, employee and voluntary benefits along with health and retirement plans. With NFP and Lion Street as our back offices, we have a collective strength of intellectual capital, technological capabilities, and resources combine to address the full spectrum of your insurance needs.

In 1947, J. Harold Bottoms began his 30 year career in the insurance industry as a debit life insurance agent in Cobb County, Georgia. He sold small life insurance policies to protect families and he stopped by their homes each week to collect the premiums. Today our clients include some of our area’s largest employers and leading citizens. But, after all these years, one thing has not changed: we still help our clients financially protect themselves and those they care about.
