"Kathy Bader helped me through the entire process and was able to get me a much better rate on both my home and auto policies. Kathy, thank you for your patience. I felt well educated and informed on all the policy decisions you helped me make. This was a very positive experience."

"First of all, let me say how important I feel it is for everyone to make a personal visit to your insurance agent and go over your policy(ies) face to face. Let’s face it, a few of us or at least I, don’t go over every detail of updates….though we should!! Here is where Kat Peterson insurance account representative for State Farm, working with Melanie Bakala, her agent steps in. Kat, was very knowledgeable, professional and very patient. She went over each of my policies, listened to my needs/concerns and addressed them to my better understanding with options. By the time I walked out I felt more aware, assured and protected…..a very comfortable feeling. Kat, thank you for all your help. I look forward to seeing you again in the near future. To Melanie Bakala, thank you for having such a great team. Each time I have called in for anything, I have received exceptional service!!!!"
"Wow, Thomas. You made our day. Everything you mentioned reflects how we help our customers - and our goal is exactly that - to help them feel aware, assured, and protected. "

"Josh McCullough was great to work with to add a new vehicle to my policy. He asked to review my current coverage to confirm I still wanted everything as is, or to make changes. It was a good suggestion as now that I have 2 vehicles, I don't need the rental car coverage. Josh is very cordial and professional. Both thumbs up for Josh. 😀"
"Thank you for the great feedback! We're so glad Josh was able to make the process of adding your new vehicle smooth and helpful. We appreciate your trust and look forward to continuing to support your insurance needs!"

"I want to extend a HUGE thank you to Cara for assisting me and my fiance for getting her set up with her new car insurance. Not only was she super fast, she listened to everything I needed, and responded professionally and swiftly. I explained to Cara my situation with the car dealership needing her name listed on the ID card and she went through the process quickly to make sure I had the documents I needed. Cara is wonderful to work with, and I am so happy with my insurance agent office!!"
"Waylon, thank you so much for the amazing review! We’re thrilled to hear Cara took such great care of you and your fiancée. She’s a true professional, and we’re lucky to have her on our team. We know how stressful dealership paperwork can be, so we’re glad she made the process smooth and fast for you. We truly appreciate your trust in our office and are always here whenever you need us!"
