About the Owners

At Paradise Protection Agency, insurance isn’t just a business — it’s personal. Founded in 2025 by Marisela Rivas, our Cape Coral-based agency was born from a deep desire to create a better experience for families and businesses navigating insurance decisions. After working for years in the restaurant industry and starting a family, Marisela sought a career that offered both stability and purpose. She transitioned into the insurance world, where she spent nearly a decade gaining hands-on experience at other agencies — learning not just how policies work, but how people feel when choosing coverage.

What became clear over the years was that most agencies rush through quotes, skip over the details, and often leave clients confused or underserved. Marisela envisioned something different: a place where people could feel fully heard, educated, and empowered. That vision led to the creation of Paradise Protection Agency — a family-run, independent brokerage that prioritizes honesty, clarity, and real human connection.

Together with her husband, Marisela now serves clients across Florida (especially in Cape Coral and Southwest Florida), as well as Maryland and Virginia. Whether you’re buying your first home, running a local business, or just want better coverage for your car or flood zone, we take the time to explain every option — without pressure, confusion, or jargon. With access to over 10 top-rated carriers, we match our clients with the coverage that fits them best — not what benefits us.

We’re proud to be a small agency with a big heart — where trust comes first, and every policy we write is backed by a genuine commitment to protect what matters most to you.

Now, together with her husband, she runs a small, family‑centered agency based in Cape Coral. We bring that same care, patience, and honesty to every client — because we believe insurance should give you peace of mind, not confusion.

I can’t say enough good things about my experience working with Marisela.

Marisela is so sweet and made this process so easy. I was stressed trying to get through this process on my own. She was knowledgeable and resourceful and assisted with explanations for us to make the best decisions with insurance options. Thank you for all your help.
