"I recently had the pleasure of working with Derek to compare my previous insurance policy with their offerings. I was impressed with how descriptive and thorough he was in explaining the differences between my previous policy and the new options available to me. Derek took the time to go over each coverage option in detail, and helped me to find a policy that met my specific needs. My only suggestion for improvement would be to have a more clearly written record of (1) our discussion, (2) payment plan, and (3) benefit comparisons, which would allow me to refer back to the information more easily. However, overall, I was very impressed with the level of service and expertise provided by the State Farm agent, and would highly recommend them to anyone in need of insurance."

"Derek and his team have done a great job covering our home, autos, and more for over seven years. They are always available via phone, email, or in person. They were there when we needed them during a bad storm a few years ago and they still check in on us. Great coverage and great support!"

"I've always received great service from the Derek Spears agency whether it was dealing with Derek himself or one of his office staff. When my apt mgrs told me out of the blue that I needed a new endorsement added to my rental ins policy that wasn't required previously, I emailed Derek's office that same day and Vanessa promptly handled the request by calling my apt mgr's office directly letting them know the endorsement was being added to my policy that day and she would be sending them a copy just as soon as her system processed it onto my policy. She also emailed me a copy of it for more own records. This is just on example of the great service I've always received from them and definitely recommend them for your insurance needs. They've had both my car and renters ins for over 10yrs now with no complaints!"

"I recently moved and needed to find renter’s insurance (apt requirement). I stopped in Derek Spear’s agency and he sat down explained what coverages I should have. I found out I needed a Personal Articles Policy for my engagement ring! He was so helpful! Thanks Derek for being patient and explaining insurance to me who isn’t too savvy on this subject! Check out this agency they will take care of you!"
