A quick update for State Farm and WIlson Chan's office:…read more Last week a young yahooligan decided to throw a monkey wrench into my plans for a peaceful weekend. The yahooligan *could* have been an old coot. I didn't see him or her. In the interests of full disclosure, the monkey wrench was actually the business end of a socket wrench. RIght through the rear window. Smashing to smithereens the safety glass. We found the mess on the street in the morning. Called the police department, of course. They responded but could do little but take a report. I needed my car. Functioning. With windows that closed. Furby the dog, was scheduled for his physical at UC Davis on the following day. An hour away. Considered taking him in a cab, but the thought of a stressed dog letting 'er rip in a cabbie's sanctuary...well, I vetoed the idea promptly. Enter Wilson Chan and State Farm. Yes, they would repair the car. Would give me suggestions about local glass shops. I wanted mobile service. DIdn't have time to go schlepping about getting estimates. Not a problem. State Farm stayed on the phone, put me through to a glass place. Made sure that the appointment could be made ASAP. I paid the nominal deductible by credit card. The mobile guys rolled up. Put in the new window. Helped clean up the glass. The glass guys were great, State Farm was great. A major problem became a non-event. Oh, and Furby? We got to the appointment in plenty of time. He got a clean bill of health. Won't have to go back for some time. Now its Emmett Dogstar's turn.... THANK YOU, WIlson, State Farm and the Glass Guys. And I'm sure the taxi driver thanks you too!

I first started using Ray Blackwell's services in 2007 when I bought my first car out of…read morecollege--they were listed as Mercury Insurance's closest agents based on where I was living at the time. Going on 6+ years now--my experience with Blackwell & Associates has been nothing but pure excellence. Professional, timely, great communication, willing to quickly work with you on a quote or adjusting a policy based on one's needs. I have changed several vehicles, added drivers to the policy, and have even had to utilize Mercury claim service a few times--on all accounts, I haven't experienced any issues whatsoever--and I attribute much (if not all) of that to the due diligence of Blackwell & Associates. At one point they tried to see if they could save me some money by combining auto and home policies under one. After doing the numbers, it didn't really make sense, and they didn't try to push anything on me since the results (while potentially beneficial for them) where not beneficial for me. I think that speaks volumes about the integrity of Blackwell & Associates. Take the other negative review(s) here with a grain of salt. I have a long standing track record with Blackwell & Associates and I cannot recommend Ray and his team enough for their outstanding service! For what it's worth I have been very happy with my Mercury Insurance policy as well!! 2 claims filed through them that were each resolved within the matter of a few weeks. Very professional experience.

AVOID THIS PLACE LIKE THE PLAGUE! Uninformed staff that will cause you more trouble than its worth…read more Find another agent to get you insured, this place is not the place to go. Agree with the other negative reviews here, this place is highly unprofessional. I purchased auto insurance from this agency and was setup for autopay. Somewhere down the line, the agency decided to change the address on my policy without my permission or request - and as a result I was paying about $50 more per month over the course of about 20 months. When I caught the mistake, I immediately contacted the agency and brought this to their attention. I thought this would be a simple misunderstanding that would get cleared up without issue, but instead - a clueless receptionist answered the phone, we went in circles for about 30 minutes, and then when I realized she didnt have a clue about insurance or about what my issue was (and that she was just the person who answered phones, not an agent) - I asked to speak with Ray Blackwell. He called me back, threataned me, we got into a yelling match, and he hung up. He called back, and at the end of this whole ordeal - they claimed their notes said that I had REQUESTED this change of address in my policy. WHY IN THE WORLD WOULD I REQUEST FOR YOU TO CHANGE MY POLICY ADDRESS TO AN ADDRESS WHERE I DO NOT LIVE?! WHY WOULD I MAKE UP A LIE ABOUT WHERE I LIVE, AND TAKE TIME OUT OF MY BUSY SCHEDULE TO CALL YOU TO TELL YOU THAT MY CAR IS AT ANOTHER ADDRESS? They are swearing by these "notes", but knowing myself, and knowing the truth, and without them having anything in writing from me informing them of a policy update - it wouldnt take a genius to figure out whos at fault here. Needless to say, I have cancelled my policy with this agency, and am awaiting their response to my request for reimbursement for extra fees incurred due to a change to my policy which i did not request, or authorize. Depending on which way this lands, I'll be following up with a small claims subpoena to get reimbursed for the extra fees paid. WHAT A HEADACHE TO DEAL WITH FOR SOMETHING THAT IS SUCH A MINUSCULE PART OF MY BUSY LIFE. See a real professional, this agency is a highly disorganized, super unprofessional, and has no ethical regard for its clients.

Elizabeth Garcia is Great! She has been a wonderful help when it comes to our insurance needs…read more From the first time you speak to her she is so nice and professional. She makes you feel at ease and confident. She explains clearly and on top of anything you may need. Makes sure you have the coverage you need. No extra hidden costs, no lies, nothing.

When we had an accident, Elizabeth helped us with the claims adjuster and our claim. No extra worries. Elizabeth has always been so polite, friendly and professional.

Kristen was helpful through every step and I cannot recommend her and her office strongly enough. Every question was answered before I could even ask it, she suggested a repair shop that was a part of the State Farm network so the paperwork and payments were seamless. Everything was done with total transparency and I received frequent updates every step of the way. She is professional and kind, and delivers old-school customer service, which is difficult to find these days. Thanks Kristen, keep up the great work!

I rarely give negative reviews because I always believe businesses should be given a second chance…read more However, I have only had such disappointing experiences with this agency that a 2 is the best I can give. I used this agency because my parents had for many, many years and wanted their home to stay insured with them even after they moved out to rent it. I took over all their insurance and in the several years I've been with this agency, communication was always extremely slow and I would have to send email after email to get any response. A couple of months ago I got an email where they said they were cancelling my insurance for a reason that made no sense. I emailed and called them immediately with no response. I then went ahead and found another agency to cover the insurance. 2 MONTHS LATER someone from the office finally responds to my email and tells me they don't understand why my insurance was cancelled. I had no energy to even respond to that. They lost a customer and I feel I should warn others that this is what I experienced.
