About Ares Benefit Group
Ares Benefit Group LLC is an independent benefits firm. We advise companies with 2 to 50 employees on the structure of their health coverage — a fully insured or level-funded group plan, SHOP coverage, an ICHRA, or a QSEHRA — and on the administration that sits around it, including Section 125 plans, group life and disability, and voluntary benefits.
The firm is led by Christopher Cavallo, principal.
We are not a carrier. We do not come to the first conversation with a single product to place. We come with a census request and a point of view about structure.

The office is in Tampa. We work with employers in the Tampa Bay area and with companies whose people work in other states. Our agents are licensed in all 50 states.
There is a short page for Tampa Bay employers. The rest of the site is written for employers nationally, not as a city shopping guide.
How we work
- You send a roster, the states where people work, a short description of what you offer today, and your renewal date if you have one.
- We compare the structures that actually fit a company of this size and tell you which one we would build.
- We help you stand it up: plan or HRA documents and notices, contributions, enrollment, and the payroll pieces such as a premium-only plan.
- We stay on the file for renewals and for the year your headcount approaches applicable large employer status, if that year is coming.
This practice is built for employers. We do not operate a consumer plan-shopping service on this site.
We do not publish client counts, reviews we have not earned, or a years-in-business line. The work should stand on the quality of the recommendation. When we have permission to name clients or to publish a case study, that material will go here and on the home page.
