"Nicole was beyond amazing. I've been with State Farm for 13 years and just kind of let things be what they were. Nicole called and asked if there was anything I needed and as it turned out I was way overdue for a review on my policy. She also helped me get a few other things set up and I'm so thankful for her kind and wonderful support. If it wasn't for her being there making it feel like the commercials say, being there like a good neighbor, I would have shopped around. She did the work, she brought the best customer service I've seen in a very long time and she made me feel right at home. I won't be leaving any time soon."

"Recently decided to take a look at State Farm Insurance for both home and auto. Phoned the office in Shelton, WA and spoke immediately with a pleasant agent named Kathy B. She very graciously walked me thru the whole procedure and answered a zillion questions for me. Then she promptly sent paperwork for me to examine at leisure. And I did. Made notes of more questions and she answered all of those, too. Within a very short time I secured coverage on both vehicles and the house. Kathy B made the whole process easy. You can tell I was very impressed with her knowledge and her willingness to help me find the exact coverage I needed. I have already begun recommending her to family and neighbors. Give her a call!"

"This office has a high attention to detail and really cares about their clients. I just relocated from Colorado to Washington, which means renters insurance and auto policies must be updated. Not only did they walk me through the process and get those policies completed in a timely manner, I got a special call from Cara to go over all of my coverage a few weeks later, including separate life insurance policies I had and simply to review everything for common sense and good quality of coverage. I was never pressured to purchase anything, in fact, I genuinely felt the desire to get me the best coverage at the lowest possible rate. Highly recommend this office."
"Thank you for your wonderful feedback. We are pleased to hear that you had a positive experience with us here on State Farm Agent Melanie Bakala’s Team. "
