"We just got the nice news that our auto insurance premiums were reduced (substantially!) and it reminded me again of the great service we've always received from State Farm, and from John and his team. John and his predecessor have taken very good care of us over the years. I remember quite vividly the day a tree fell on our roof and crashed through the ceiling of our bedroom after an ice storm more than 25 years ago. We weren't alone -- a lot of homes in Evanston were damaged that day. State Farm brought in people from all over the country to survey the damage and negotiate with contractors to expedite repairs. We appreciate the good service that State Farm and your agency continue to provide us!"

"The John Roman State Farm office is exceptional in service and efficiency. I have all of my policies with them; car, condo, personal properties. In the 20 years I have been with them, I have never had a negative experience. Kinley Kemnitz is my current go-to person in the office. She has been on top of all my inquiries and has been timely in returning all of my phone calls. I couldn't recommend them more highly."
We responded:
"Hi, Pamela! Thank you for the shoutout for Gavin! He is a vital part of the team and we appreciate how much he care about all our customers. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to help you with your insurance needs. And… thank you for being the BEST part of State Farm!"

"We’ve been State Farm customers for decades, and were glad to work with Rachel at John Roman’s office as we moved to Illinois. Rachel has been absolutely amazing to work with, and she’s helped us through some really difficult challenges. While we were approaching our close, she had great recommendations for making sure we got the right levels of insurance for our home, and unfortunately we certainly needed it! Our first week, the hot water heater burst, leading to damage to our home, the need for an emergency water heater replacement, and lots of ancillary work for fix several problems that were found along the way. Another time, State Farm took pictures of the roof and dropped us from our plan because the roof appeared to be much older than advertised (and they were right), so she helped us navigate a rapid roof inspection (where we learned of the poor state of the roof), tear-down, and re-instatement of our policy. John took lots of time to explain to us what was happening and why, and we felt much better understanding both the big picture, and what we could do about it. It’s been the same too for several other challenges we’ve faced since we moved here. She and her team have been amazing to work with. While I certainly hope no one has to face these kinds of challenges, we have been so glad to work with Rachel, and how careful and detailed she is with us, to make we have the right insurance for our lives, and that it’s working well."
We responded:
"Hey Michael, Thanks for sharing your experience and for being a long-time State Farm customer. I'm glad Rachel and our team could assist you through those challenging situations. It's great to know that Rachel's recommendations and support helped you navigate the issues with your home and roof. We're always here to ensure you have the right coverage and support. If you need anything else, feel free to reach out. - John Roman - State Farm Insurance Agent, Evanston, IL"

"My representative Gavin cannot be tamed in the field of delivering genuine, human service. I literally went with State Farm for the sole reason that he was motivated enough in his work to make me laugh while I went through the typically tedious process of getting insured. John, we have not met yet but you've got an excellent team member in this individual. If he were working for me at my agency, I'd certainly put this experience away and use it to advocate a raise for him."
We responded:
"Hey Dylan, thanks a ton for your awesome review! I'm so glad Gavin made the insurance process enjoyable for you. He's truly a gem in our team, and your feedback means a lot. If you ever need anything else, feel free to reach out! - John Roman - State Farm Insurance Agent, Evanston, IL"
