I've been with Steve Bauer and State Farm since 2014. Sometimes I like to drop by in person as I live close by. Yolanda helped me today with my additional car policy. She made sure that I received the two-car policy discount. Not only that, Yolanda called the State Farm office (in another state where I own a house) and spoke with the agent about setting up a retroactive discount for my home owners policy--because I've been with State Farm for my cars (and my house in the other state) but I did not realize I qualified for a multi-policy discount on my house! Well done! I always feel I've been given the best service in Steve Bauer's office and I always know Yolanda is on the ball! Thank you! read more

Steve has always been a forthright and easy agent and his staff is lovely. One staff member, Yolanda Allen-Hill, always goes above and beyond. Steve personally called me to let me know my house would no longer be fire-insured due to the wildfires and gave me other options. read more

I want to share a shout-out to Yolanda Allen-Hill at Steve Bauer, State Farm Insurance. Yolanda has been my go to insurance person for more than a decade, and she is always clear, helpful and super-prompt in her responses to my inquiries. In one case, I unexpectedly needed additional insurance documentation within 5 minutes while my teenage daughter was at her DMV driving test appointment, and Yolanda faxed the required document to DMV's fax number in a matter of minutes. She always gives it her all. I can't recommend her and the office in general highly enough for their responsiveness and efforts to help however they can. read more

I recently got car insurance from this branch of State Farm. The agent that helped me was Yolanda Allen-Hill. She is amazing. It was my first time getting insurance on a car so I had allot of questions and felt overwhelmed. Yolanda was patient and helpful answering all my questions. She also worked on getting me the best deal to match my budget. It was a very great experience because of Yolanda I will be recommending this branch every chance I get. Do your self a favor and ask for Yolanda she's the best. read more

I have been with Steve Bauer since he took over the State Farm practice from the previous State Farm agent, and I haven't left since! But that doesn't mean I didn't explore others - I did. I went to them originally because I got the best rates; and when I moved to Southern California, I checked against other insurance agents and Steve Bauer still came out on top, But the real reason why I stay with them year after year is because Steve has the BEST people working with him. They're like family!! Working with Steve's wife set the tone of my relationship with everyone there. They've helped me through so much of my changing needs over the years. When she eventually stepped away, Yolanda became the mainstay of the office for me. She is such a special person with an ability to make everyone feel like they're part of the family and not just a policyholder. She is the GOAT and I hope she and Steve plan to stick around for a long long time. read more

Linda Nguyen was terrific at getting us insurance, and switching from a company that we didn't like and a policy that we were paying way too much on. We're now paying less and happy that we are with this company. Insurance shouldn't be a hassle and she made the entire process easy and affordable for our entire family on auto insurance. A big thank you to you Linda for your courteous and professional assistance. read more

i went to Yelp just now to post a review of this office and discovered I'd written one in 2015 which had never got posted. Now it's finally been posted, and I want to follow up to say that this office is still just as great.

We really appreciate the friendliness and efficiency of everyone in the office. read more

I've worked with Steve Bauer for about 20 years. I initially had auto and renter's insurance (which I was surprised to discover covered a theft from a hotel). Now my husband and I have homeowners, auto and other policies with State Farm. Steve has given us great advice over the years. He explains everything clearly and he, Yolanda and his other staff are always super responsive when we have questions. The few claims we've had have gone very smoothly. State Farm is good insurance. We rely on Steve, and we highly recommend him and his crew. read more

Steve's office is great. I mainly work with Jose who is always super helpful and responsive. He helped me get my home covered after another State Farm had failed to do so. I also appreciated the policy review face to face with Steve. He has been in the business a long time and knows the ins and outs. Highly recommend moving your policies to State Farm and Steve's office. read more

We have had State Farm Insurance for our home for decades and just changed to Steve when our previous agent retired. We have gotten great service so far from Steve and Linda. We recently added our car insurance and not only saved compared to our old AAA policy, but are now receiving an additional discount on the home policy. Wish we had switched sooner! read more

It must be 30 years or more that we have been with Steve Bauer for all our home and car policies. Before that, it was Dwight Howland, that's how far back we go! They are the best, best, best, for everything! Steve is a wonderful, wonderful agent, for so many years and we appreciate him so much! Yolanda is amazing. AMAZING. Her knowledge is so vast, about everything. She knows my voice when I call, remembers everything about out policies even before she can pull them up on her screen. She is so committed to helping her customers, always looking for ways to save us a little money. I don't know how they could be better - love them! read more

Jose Luis Gray, one of the agents and team members, was extremely helpful in getting us covered for our new home.
