"I've been with State Farm for several years now, and I couldn’t be happier with the service. Their team is always professional, friendly, and incredibly responsive. Any time I’ve had questions about coverage or needed help with a claim, Michele, made the process smooth and stress-free. Sommar, in the Newport office, is always so helpful, patient, and goes above and beyond to make sure everything is clear and taken care of. The rates are competitive (just call around and get some quotes) and I feel confident knowing my home, car, and family are protected with State Farm. Highly recommend!"

"Michele is the best! This is a stressful time for policyholders as we worry about the state of the California insurance industry. I can only imagine how busy Michele and her team must be dealing with southern California wildfire issues, but she is always generous with her time and talents helping to walk policyholders like me through various insurance issues. Thank you!"
"Thank you John for trusting me and my team to service your insurance needs. Michele Ellena"

"I have been with Statefarm and Michelle's agency for years. Every few years I ask for a meeting to do a comprehensive review of all our policies. (We have we have eight different policies currently with State Farm). Michelle was very prepared for our meeting. Had reviewed each policy before my arrival and made suggestions to possible changes to each policy. Not only from coverage standpoint but also looking for ways to minimize my premium costs. I should also mention that anytime I e mail Michelle with an insurance question she is very prompt with a reply. Roland"
"Thank you Roland. We are honored to work with you and your family."

"I had been with another State Farm insurance agent for more than 25 years. It was okay before since I had never filed claims. It turned out to be so terrible once I needed their help. So I switched to Michele Brandmeier. I am glad I made that decision. What a big difference! Michele and her team deserve 5 stars and beyond. - Always somebody there picks up the phone and provides professional service. - Everybody is friendly and ready to help - They treat you like family member - They stand behind you when you are in a difficult and frustrating situation - And much more. Thank you for your wonderful job :)"

"Yesterday when purchasing my very first car, the finance manager at the car dealership pointed me in the right direction of who to go to for help. Being that this was my first time getting insurance on my own, I had no idea what I was doing but Sommar at State Farm helped me instantly and provided me with all of the critical information that I needed! Not only was she very informative, she was even kind enough to provide 3 different possible packages for me to choose from and explained what each of them entailed. Not to mention, she was really sweet and so willing to help me! I appreciate the patience she had with me being that I initially had no idea about insurance and what it all meant. Definitely recommend State Farm and if you get the chance, ask for Sommar!"
