The Bayshield Story

Built on analytical thinking, insurance experience, and a commitment to giving clients meaningful choices.
2009

An Insurance Career Begins

Arash Alex Eshraghi earned his Life and Health license and began helping individuals and families understand life insurance, long-term care, and disability protection. He later added his Property and Casualty license.

2013

Bayshield Is Established

After gaining experience at a captive agency, Arash founded Bayshield Insurance Services to provide a more flexible, consultative approach and help clients explore coverage beyond a one-size-fits-all solution.

Today

Personal and Commercial Expertise

Bayshield helps clients throughout California explore personal, commercial, life, and health insurance, with particular experience navigating complex business insurance risks.

Meet Our Founder

Arash Alex Eshraghi

Founder, Bayshield Insurance Services Inc.

Before entering the insurance industry, Arash developed his analytical foundation through mechanical engineering at Wichita State University. His engineering background taught him how to break complex problems into manageable parts, examine important details, and develop practical solutions.

That same mindset now guides his approach to insurance. Rather than beginning with a standard package, Arash works to understand each client’s circumstances, identify meaningful risks, and explain the available options clearly. Arash entered the insurance profession in 2009 after earning his Life and Health license. He initially helped individuals and families navigate life insurance, long-term care, and disability protection. Later that year, he expanded his capabilities by earning his Property and Casualty license.

After several years at a captive agency, Arash recognized the value of giving clients greater choice. He founded Bayshield Insurance Services in 2013 to deliver a more flexible and personalized insurance experience across personal and commercial coverage.

A Personal Message from Arash

“Whether you are protecting your home and family or safeguarding a business you have built from the ground up, my goal is to make insurance straightforward, personal, and reliable.”

A genuine interest in understanding business

A Passion for Commercial Insurance

Commercial insurance has become one of Arash’s primary areas of focus. He enjoys learning how different businesses operate, identifying exposures that may be easy to overlook, and helping owners consider coverage that supports their operations.
From property and vehicles to employees, professional services, contracts, and industry-specific risks, Bayshield helps business owners approach insurance with greater clarity and confidence.
