I have always received 5 star service from this office. Karen, in particular, has been outstanding and very knowledgeable in helping me with my insurance needs for years. Karen, has this special ability to explain things in simple terms to understand more clearly. Most importantly, she returns calls and emails in a timely manner.

We have been with Derek for over 7 years. We have insured over 15 vehicles with Derek along with our Homeowner's Insurance. Between Karen and Derek someone is available at your convenience. They are both informational and easy to talk to. They provide quotes at a drop of a hat (especially when we are car shopping)! Karen is such a sweet attentive person they are a great team. Derek and Karen both make sure if they see a better deal for us they give me all the options so we can decide what is best for us. Derek is not only our agent but we have had our adult kids sign with him as well. We don't trust anyone except Derek with the safety our our property, our vehicles and really us! We are at sound mind knowing that Derek and State Farm will assure the best for me and my family.

Like a good Neighbor, Derek is there. I could not be more please with the level of service I received with a recent claim.

Derek and the State Farm team made submitting a claim easy and stress free. Big thank you as well to Akins Collision of Santa Clara, & Enterprise for taking care of my Truck and providing a sweet rental.

To Derek and State Farm Team you are the true MVP’s. Thank you!

Derek is great to work with! He’s very knowledgeable and does an excellent job at explaining your coverage options and creating a policy that will best fit your needs. He’s honest and informative, and does not try to upsell you or pressure you to make a decision like many other agents will do. He is professional and customer service oriented. Over the years, Derek has always been very responsive and made himself available to answer our questions and help us with any changes. My partner and I feel like we are in great hands with Derek!

This review is long overdue. Derek has been my insurance agent for over a decade. He and his staff are amazing! When I need help and call his office, not only do we catch up on family, kids, jobs, etc., but he and his team go above and beyond for me and my parents (who are also his clients). Karen is also the best! She responds to me super quickly and has been to my rescue so many times (after accidents and car/address/policy changes). Recently, my son's catalytic converter was stolen. I called the office to cancel the policy and they advised that it was covered! I had no idea! My son was allowed a rental and he received a check for the whole value of his car! I am super greatful for Derek and his team and 1000% recommend them for all insurance needs.
