"This office has a high attention to detail and really cares about their clients. I just relocated from Colorado to Washington, which means renters insurance and auto policies must be updated. Not only did they walk me through the process and get those policies completed in a timely manner, I got a special call from Cara to go over all of my coverage a few weeks later, including separate life insurance policies I had and simply to review everything for common sense and good quality of coverage. I was never pressured to purchase anything, in fact, I genuinely felt the desire to get me the best coverage at the lowest possible rate. Highly recommend this office."

"I had a great experience with Gray McCoy from State Farm yesterday. I recently learned that I was paying an insane amount on my house insurance. Through Gray, I was able to drop my yearly cost by almost 2000 dollars while quadrupling my coverage. To top it off I was able to bundle my auto insurance and cut my monthly price in half. A huge thank you to Gray and the team at Dtate Farm!!"

"We were long-time State Farm customers but decided to see if “the grass was greener” elsewhere. Spoiler alert: it wasn’t. Not even close. After that experience, we found ourselves right back at Melanie Bakala’s office with our tail tucked between our legs. From the moment we returned, we were treated with kindness and zero judgment. Mersades helped us through the process, and she was absolutely incredible. She was patient, thoughtful, and thorough, and took the time to explain everything clearly. Not only did she make the experience seamless, but she also helped us save a significant amount of money, even more than before we left. It honestly felt like we never left. The level of service, professionalism, and genuine care is exactly why we should’ve never gone anywhere else. We’re truly grateful for Mersades and the entire team at Melanie Bakala State Farm. Thank you for welcoming us back with open arms. We won’t be wandering again. ❤️"
We responded:
"Wow. You made my day Elizabeth! No need to tuck your tail - we will always welcome you back with open arms. So happy to be serving you again."
