"What an excellent experience I had at this location! In all my years dealing with different insurance companies, I’ve never had such a smooth and clear process. All thanks to the young lady named Fina. I believe she’s new at this office, but wow—she was incredibly informative. I initially called with questions about life insurance, and she went above and beyond explaining all my options with so much patience and understanding. She even educated me on renter’s insurance and helped me realize it was something I actually needed—best decision I made. Thank you so much, Fina! I highly recommend this location. They truly care about both their existing and new clients."

She is very personable, professional, friendly and answered all of my questions thoroughly. She even checked in with me to make sure I completed my underwriting interview on time.

"Annie was great! She helped me obtain new insurance for my two cars (incl. an EV) all through email. I never even had to set foot in her office, nor even have to make time for a phone call. Saved me hundreds per year off Geico (previous insurance)."

"I have recently requested insurance for my new car and State Farm representative Christine Capandonis was helping me. Everything was done in a very short timeline, very professional, friendly. Christine answered all my question and offered more and more assistance if needed. I am really happy to work with her and next time, if I need help with home/auto insurance, will obviously ask if Christine is available. THANK YOU for GREAT JOB!"

"I couldn’t be happier with the service I receive, Every interaction is friendly, professional, and reassuring. Lisa Desena always goes above and beyond to take the time to answer all my questions and made sure I understood everything before moving forward. It’s rare to find an insurance company that makes you feel so supported. I’m grateful to have them and would recommend them without hesitation."

"I can't say enough good things about the team at Brian Downes' State Farm agency. I've been a loyal customer for more than three decades, even after moving out of state. My agent, Lisa, is fantastic, and recently, while she was on vacation, Christine stepped in to help me with a tricky car claim. Christine was a lifesaver. She reached out to the claims department on my behalf, got the information I needed to extend my rental car, and even helped me get an update on why my vehicle repair was taking so long. Her proactive communication and genuine care made a stressful situation so much easier. The entire office is filled with amazing people who truly put their customers first. Thank you, Christine, Lisa and the whole team!"
We responded:
"We are so thankful George for your continued loyalty and support. It is customers like you who make our days enjoyable! You are always so respectful and polite and wonderful to work with. I am happy that you have had the opportunity to work with Lisa all of these years and that Christine was able to provide the same exceptional service while Lisa was on vacation. We look forward to continuing to work with you for decades to come! Sincerely, Brian Downes"

"Back in January , I needed Brian/mike to add car on my insurance, however he replaced my current car which lead for it to get towed. Mind you I called Mike the day of when I got pulled over show he can forward me the information to show the police and I never recieved an email. The car got towed due to no insurance which lead dmv to revoke registration on the car, and I was left at the side of the road . Leaving me with over a week of storage fee and tickets to pay for a mistake done by Mike and his team. Mike couldn’t even pay for the ticket or storage fee; and not to mention I had to wait over 3 weeks to get documentation from Mike showing I had the car insured. We are now in August, I’ve reached out to Mike and his team to send me documentation so I can show the courts and I still haven’t received any email for documentation. From being a customer over 5 years ,I can safely say Mike/ Brian hold a lot of open promises and never even try to get back to you. Please if you’re going to have Mike as your agent, proceed with caution. You’ll have better luck with an online agent who can help you instantly."
