"Very friendly, professional, and extremely helpful throughout the entire process. They took the time to explain everything in a way that was clear and easy to understand, which I truly appreciated. I never felt rushed or confused, and any questions I had were answered thoroughly. Response times are always quick whenever I reach out, and I can count on them to follow through. It’s reassuring to work with someone who is both knowledgeable and approachable. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone looking for reliable and responsive service."

"During a difficult family transition, I found myself needing to step forward and take over my auto and home policy on my own. I spent time researching State Farm agencies in the area, and the consistently outstanding reviews for the Lake Zurich location immediately stood out. From the moment I called, the team responded with care, working diligently to ensure I had a policy of my own. Kora was my point of contact, and from our very first conversation, she made me feel completely at ease, as if we had known each other far longer than a single phone call. Her warmth, attentiveness, and genuine compassion created a seamless and reassuring transition. Kora handled every detail with grace, and her kindness turned a challenging moment into a true fresh start. Thank you, Kora, for being sensational and for showing up with such care when I needed it most. 🌟"
We responded:
"Thanks for the kind words and recognition of Kora . Our goal is always to provide the level of service described above. Insurance can be complicated and overwhelming at times. We strive to provide professional advice and recommendations in a customer focused environment. Kora is one of the best in the business !! We look forward to working with you for many years to come Joe Agent/Owner "

"KORA IS AMAZING!! She was so helpful when my fiancé and I moved from CA, and she helped us transfer our insurance to IL seamlessly. She made sure she gave us the best deal and helped us add things to our policy to reduce our bill. She even helped set up a policy to insure my new engagement ring. She even went so far to send us a card congratulating us on our engagement. We heard of "Midwest Nice" in CA, but she is truly so very kind and the most helpful insurance rep I have ever had the privilege in working with. #KoraNice"
We responded:
"Sara , I can't thank you enough for you recognizing the care that Kora puts into our Clients every day. This is the main attribute we look for in our team . We truly believe in creating a real partnership with our clients. Thank you so much. This will most certainly make Kora's Day !! Joe Agent/Owner "

"Joe McNamara provides outstanding service. I texted him directly about getting some info for my son to rent a truck. Within 5 minutes he had sent a new card with my son's name on it to provide insurance proof. This is one example of many times he's gone above and beyond to take care of my family and I."

"Recommended by my neighbors to try this office for quotes on both home and auto and exceeded my expectations. After my home and auto rates began to rise after years of no claims, I began my search to switch. I pulled many quotes from many offices and this office exceeded expectations. All office staff is extremely helpful and thank you to my agent, Mike Pontarelli, for finding me the best prices and insurance for peace of mind."
We responded:
"Thanks for the Kind words Katie - Mike has been with our Agency for 10 years and always provides top notch service . We look forward to working with you and Welcome to our Agency !! Joe Agent /Owner "

"I’m a very happy customer of the Joe McNamara State Farm Insurance Agency, and many people I know have also been for plenty of years. In recent term, one person that stood out a lot to me and offered more than enough help, is Kora M. Quigley! She is extremely responsive, very attentive, and doesn’t miss out on any of the details! Between accidents, new car purchases, and everything in the middle, she has made it an extremely smooth experience. Couldn’t be happier with Joe and Kora!"
We responded:
"Great to hear Samson !! Kora and the whole team strive to be responsive and focused on details. Thanks so much for taking the time to leave this review - It means the world to us Joe Agent/Owner "
