"During a difficult family transition, I found myself needing to step forward and take over my auto and home policy on my own. I spent time researching State Farm agencies in the area, and the consistently outstanding reviews for the Lake Zurich location immediately stood out. From the moment I called, the team responded with care, working diligently to ensure I had a policy of my own. Kora was my point of contact, and from our very first conversation, she made me feel completely at ease, as if we had known each other far longer than a single phone call. Her warmth, attentiveness, and genuine compassion created a seamless and reassuring transition. Kora handled every detail with grace, and her kindness turned a challenging moment into a true fresh start. Thank you, Kora, for being sensational and for showing up with such care when I needed it most. 🌟"
"Thanks for the kind words and recognition of Kora . Our goal is always to provide the level of service described above. Insurance can be complicated and overwhelming at times. We strive to provide professional advice and recommendations in a customer focused environment. Kora is one of the best in the business !! We look forward to working with you for many years to come Joe Agent/Owner "

"Joe McNamara provides outstanding service. I texted him directly about getting some info for my son to rent a truck. Within 5 minutes he had sent a new card with my son's name on it to provide insurance proof. This is one example of many times he's gone above and beyond to take care of my family and I."

"Recommended by my neighbors to try this office for quotes on both home and auto and exceeded my expectations. After my home and auto rates began to rise after years of no claims, I began my search to switch. I pulled many quotes from many offices and this office exceeded expectations. All office staff is extremely helpful and thank you to my agent, Mike Pontarelli, for finding me the best prices and insurance for peace of mind."

"I’m a very happy customer of the Joe McNamara State Farm Insurance Agency, and many people I know have also been for plenty of years. In recent term, one person that stood out a lot to me and offered more than enough help, is Kora M. Quigley! She is extremely responsive, very attentive, and doesn’t miss out on any of the details! Between accidents, new car purchases, and everything in the middle, she has made it an extremely smooth experience. Couldn’t be happier with Joe and Kora!"

"I have been a customer of Joe McNamara State Farm Insurance Agency for many years and I’d like to say something special about every employee that he has but one person stands out and has helped me through difficult times personally and with some really unique insurance needs. It is Kora M. Quigley! As I stated everyone there has been amazing but Kora has always shown a gentle and caring touch and complete knowledge of my history with State Farm. She is the very best I’ve ever dealt with in all my insurance needs. I highly recommend this agency and I intend on staying on as a longtime and devoted customer!!"

"We recently switched all our State Farm policies to Joe McNamara since our former agent was based in the southern suburbs and we wanted an agent closer to home. I selected Joe's office based on the Google reviews and responses (even though there are State Farm offices closer to our home). When I called the office, the woman that answered was incredibly helpful in getting our policies switched to their office and setting up a meeting with Joe. I immediately felt like the level of customer service was above and beyond. Joe was very generous with his time in reviewing all of our existing property and auto insurance policies and making suggestions on adding (and removing) certain coverages that better match our needs. I left his office feeling really knowledgeable about our policies and it provides a solid level of comfort and security knowing that we are protected. Thank you!"
"Thaks Sheri for the kind words and review - We sincerely appreciate it. We look forward to working with you !! Joe Agent/Owner "
