Patrick Skaar

Vice President & Shareholder

Pat has over 30 years of experience in the insurance industry and joined Robertson Ryan Insurance in 2006 when Grade Schaller Insurance, the agency he was with, became part of Robertson Ryan. Being part of Wisconsin’s largest privately held agency has provided him with exceptional resources to meet his clients’ needs.

Pat primarily focuses on working with commercial clients, thriving on the many moving pieces involved. He takes pride in asking questions, listening to clients’ concerns, and ultimately tailoring insurance programs to suit their specific requirements. His extensive experience spans a diverse range of industries, including contractors, trucking, manufacturing (from machine shops to food production), habitational properties, home health care, and more.

Residing in West Salem, WI, Pat and his wife, Anne, enjoy outdoor activities and maintaining an active lifestyle in the beautiful surroundings of Western Wisconsin. Their son, Shane Skaar, is currently learning the insurance business as an Account Executive at Robertson Ryan, while their two daughters attend UW-Madison and Iowa State.
