Always responsive with our emails, calls and very helpful in explaining all things insurance - highly professional team and very honest. Brian and his team really look out for their clients, explaining insurance coverage until you are comfortable understanding the coverage you are buying. Most recently, we were in a car accident and our car was damaged beyond repair. From the moment we called State Farm, Ian picked up immediately, we knew we were being taken care of by the best. We can't say enough about the high level of service Ian provided us immediately after the accident occurred - getting us connected with claims and staying on the phone with us with the claims agent, helping us navigate the tow truck situation so the city didn't impound our car unnecessarily, staying on the phone with us until friends came to pick us up because it was dark outside and following up with us the day after to make sure we were alright still and if we had any questions about the claims process. Brian and his team treat their clients like family. Thank you for all the years of taking care of us!

I've been a customer of David's for almost 20 years, when he began his operation in San Francisco…read more I currently have my life insurance, auto, and umbrella policies with his company. David and his staff are always prompt to reply to any questions or concerns about my coverage. His prices are excellent and you can't beat the solid reliability of a top tier company like Farmers. He has since moved to his new office in Burlingame, but continues to provide the same high quality customer service and portfolio of services that I have come to expect from his office. Bonus: fluent in Mandarin & Cantonese, in addition to English, of course. Highly recommended.

Unfortunately we experienced very poor customer service from the David Sok Insurance Agency. After…read moremany years as a client, we ultimately moved our business to another provider, closing our final billing. We received an additional bill, went ahead and paid it to put a close to the account -- and soon received a refund check for that amount. We then began receiving notices from collections agencies for the same invoice. After months of back and forth with collections and trying to contact Sok's office with no response, we finally just paid the bill again. Look forward to our next round of collections agency inquiries!

It's my opinion that Jerry is easily one of the laziest and most disingenuous salespeople I've ever…read moremet in my life. In a day and age where insurance is a commodity and there are no shortage of providers competing on cost, it is baffling how little effort he exerts - when was the last time you ever dealt with an agent themselves, and not the parent company? The gaps and lack of attention to detail from his staff over the years have been alarming. When a vehicle I owned was declared a total loss, State Farm cut me a check. Jerry's office sent me a bill for the vehicle a few weeks later. That was a nice surprise. When I recently called in to discuss an unrelated matter, I dealt with a rude employee, a staff member named Maria Corona. I don't have the time or patience for sass and disrespect from a commoditized service in this day and age. I learned she was also rude to a family member who also did business with Jerry, and we're both taking our business elsewhere. I used State Farm because my family did, I never gave much thought to it - easy money for ol boy Selvitella - until these disappointing experiences. The straw that broke the back was this insanely bland and banal email that he either let someone send on his behalf or didn't even bother to take the time to use my name - I told State Farm I'd rather lapse a policy or change agents. They placed me with a new agent. 10 minutes later I get a call from the ol boy himself wanting to talk about it. I call back when I'm free because unlike him I work standard business hours. His staff lets me know he's "offline for the day", ma'am it's 3:45pm, c'mon now. Then I get this email, mentioning how he and his wife were allegedly cooking for a woman and I'm just stunned. Philanthropy is great but maybe you should be available during the week during your stated hours of operation? Circus clown behavior, tom foolery, take your business elsewhere.

With every interaction I've had, whether it was the sale of a vehicle, the purchase of a new vehicle, general questions, or navigating various other events, I've been able to simply text the office and get a response--sometimes almost instantaneously. What service! I come from a service design background at Stanford University, so I tend to pay close attention to the customer experience and how services are designed and delivered. I have to say, Denise's office has left me with no significant recommendations for service improvement. And that says a lot! Keep up the great work, Denise and Alex--Denise's assistant extraordinaire! I truly appreciate you both and the exceptional service you provide. Thank you for making every interaction so easy and seamless!

I have been a satisfied client of Phil Grites' agency since the '70s. It started when my (then)…read morehusband was self employed and could not find insurance--reasonable or otherwise--anywhere else in the bay area. Phil was so welcoming and his rates so good that we soon switched our homeowner and personal auto insurance to State Farm too, even though we lived in San Jose! Years later, when our son went off to college we got his renter's and auto insurance from Phil, as did i when i divorced and moved to the east bay. When my ex moved out of state, he was upset that he couldn't keep Phil's agency! And after my son married, he & his wife found they would save substantially by getting all their coverage, including life insurance, from Phil. Phil has met with him in SJ and me at my home across the bay, to ensure that our needs are always being met. Over the years, the service received from every single person at the agency has been knowledgeable, caring and personable--not to mention above-and-beyond the norm when i've needed to make a last-minute payment over the phone. It's the best business relationship I've ever had, and i don't hesitate to recommend them for all of your insurance needs.

We also get Life Insurance and Renter's Insurance through State Farm. A shout out to his staff Kati and Nancy that have helped us numerous times.

The claim review took over a week and they're only paying 25% of the the costs. We have been trying to dispute the payout for over almost a week now. We pay the california premium rates but the coverage is treated at the national average - which is ridiculous, unfair and deceptive. Wen Ling and Pearson - have answered our calls ONCE in the past 2 weeks regarding this whole process. They email us at 5pm saying we will call tomorrow - right as their offices close. In addition, our insurance coverage allows for a rental car when your insured car is unavailable due to covered issues - the daily limit is $50. There is not a single car rental place in the bay area that is renting out ANY car - economy, compact, whatever - for less than $60 before taxes. What's the point here?

My goal was to get car insurance in 24 hours for my new car. I shopped around, asked for quotes…read moreonline, over the phone, through email and created an excel spreadsheet with all 32 quotes from insurance companies and the possible permutations of insurance coverage (bodily injury, property, medical,etc). Of all the insurance companies I've spoken to and came in contact with, this company was the most honest, the most patient and didn't push me to purchase coverage I did not need. I shot the agent 4 or 5 emails with different levels of coverage and he was more than happy to run the numbers for me. But this is not to say that you should go into buying car insurance blindly without having done your own research. If you want a great deal and make this process less painful, do your research, understand the terms and what coverage you get, and ask the agent questions! You'll be more happy with your final decision =)
