After my father's job relocated us back to the Chicagoland area 20 years ago, my father obtained…read morehis car and renter's insurance with Mark at State Farm. When I turned 16, I was added to his policy, and my sister as well a few years later when she turned 16 and we both needed car insurance. The various discounts available helped get us a good rate. After many new car changes, removal of my sister when she married, addition of my step sister and step mother when my dad re-married, we still received low rates for great coverage. At 21, I was foolish and got a DUI and when my father called Mark, he just laughed and said "kids will be kids." My rate didn't increase. Even with other incidents (a not-fault accident I was in, a speeding ticket, etc) my rate never increased. Fast foward 8 years, and I moved out on my own. I branched off of my dad's policy and obtained my own for car and renter's insurance. The bf had Esurance or some crap, so I made him leave and he joined my policy. Not only did that help again with multiple discounts, but Esurance was charging him 6 times what Mark quoted him for his vehicle. That's huge! Needless to say, the bf was thrilled. Esurance considered the bf a "high risk" driver.... not sure what criteria they used to determine that, but apparently it didn't matter with SF. He was ecstatic that he would no longer pay such a high premium for lousy coverage. Just last month, a deer ran out straight into the bf's car. The damage didn't seem too terrible (I had my own deer experience ten years ago with far worse damage). State Farm gave us a reputable body shop to repair the car and set us up with a very nice rental car with Enterprise. Thanks to comprehensive, we didn't pay a dime. If we didn't have comprehensive, the bill would have been our responsibility - a grand total of over $5200! For a mere $103 per month for two vehicles (one with full coverage, the other with full coverage - collision) and renter's insurance... I am more than pleased. Everytime we have a question or need to update something on our policy, Mark has been extrememly helpful. His assistants are equally helpful the few times Mark was not in the office. He is also quick to respond via e-mail if you choose to go that route. Many months ago, the bf talked about insurance shopping, because he felt that we could get a better rate, despite my longtime relationship with Mark and State Farm. After the deer incident, he has changed his tune and agreed State Farm is the way to go. I couldn't agree more. It would take a LOT to make me change insurance companies. Kudos to Mark Lathrop and State Farm.

I JUST got off the phone w/ Veronica, & I was calling originally cause i was trying to get a quote…read moreonline and my vehicle model wouldn't pull up, so I called the closest office 2 me and she informed me that i could get an more accurate quote w/ her...so since i am in need of a new policy today.. i asked her to give me a quote....but when we got down to the logistics of it.... she couldn't give me a answer to what my van model would be, so she did NOTHING MORE than the online program did.... THEN she was trying to tell me that i would have to put my common law husband on the policy even though he lives in a different state,,, and dosent drive my car EVER... when i said she was making this more difficult that it really was.... my father owns an insurance company and i KNOW that i don't have to have my common law husband on my policy when he dosent live with me or drive my car .... then at the end she was VERY RUDE, about everything and couldn't spell my very easy last names right.....2ce! i certainly hope she shredded my info cause i surely won't do business with them EVER & surely would not recommend HER!

To top it off, when I thought we were finally done, they charged us for renters insurance on our new house which we own instead of giving us our money back. Don't waste your time here.

By default, I was with Forest for a long time.. I was on my parents' plan (back when they went by…read moreanother name) and as an adult stayed with Forest. My parents left forest awhile ago. They were unsatisfied with how much they were paying and their rude agent. I had little, but generally very pleasant interactions with my agent until recently. When I needed to drop my ex and his car off of my plan, they would not help me. My ex would not sign the documents needed to get off of the plan and Forest said there was nothing they could do. Not their fault, I agree. But curious, I inquired with another company. According to my new agent (Country) there are ways around this situation but they were not willing to help me. I assume this is because I wasn't worth their time, with my small insurance plans. So I stopped paying for my car coverage and was dropped from the plan. Not an issue, we all move on, right? Wrong. After I canceled my Home insurance, and submitted my Quit Claim Deed to show that my ex no longer owned my home, Forest sent me my refund check with his name on it! I assume this was to intentionally cause me more headache, luckily, I was able to cash the check with ease and deposit it back into my escrow account. Truth be told, I have much more coverage needs coming soon and I am absolutely ecstatic that it won't be through Forest Agency.

A month later there's a $130 bill while checking the app. I call and apparently they sent an inspector without my knowledge or ever mentioning it. The inspector claimed I have a full concrete basement. Part of the house is basement, the other part is a crawl space. They raised the coverage without ever telling me they could do that or telling me that they'd send an inspector so I could prove I have a crawl space. Do not trust these people. I went with them for the better quote. I'm now paying exactly the same as before but getting about $60,000 less in coverage.

Clearly the individual leaving the one and only review for this company must be an employee…read more I called this company while doing comparable shopping for insurance quotes and received none of the professionalism listed above. What I did receive was rudeness. The first time I called the guy that answered the phone stated that he could not hear me and simply hung up. Even though I thought this was rude, I gave the benefit of the doubt and called back. When the same guy answered, I advised that I was calling to get an insurance quote and he actually stated, "Maybe you should try calling back later, everyone here in the office is to busy right now for that." I actually laughed, thanked him and moved on with my search. I'm writing this review for other customers to save them the time in calling this company. Clearly, this guy showed no concern with acquiring a potential customer-maybe in his opinion, they have all they need right now. I can only imagine how they treat the customers that they already have. The terribly sad part in this is that most of the time management has no clue that they have employees that treat customers this way and only come to work for a check and could truly care less about providing stellar customer service or retaining customers for their employer. I suggest management seeks out better employee's or more customer service training. While their prices may be lower than another insurance agency, I'm sure I'm not the only one who would appreciate great customer service in addition to low prices. Potential customers, please know that this seems to be a case of, "You get what you pay for."
