Daytona Beach, Fla.-based insurance broker Brown & Brown said it has acquired the Dallas-based agencies ProTexn Inc. and Best Practices Insurance Agency Inc. Terms of the deal were not released.

ProTexn and Best Practices Insurance Agency, with combined annualized revenues of approximately $1 million, act as program administrators, managing general agents and brokers for lawyer's and accountant's professional liability insurance primarily in Texas and surrounding states.
