"This branch of State Farm supporting the Williamsburg area is amazing. I needed to switch my auto and home insurance this year and not only did they give me a great price but the customer service and there willingness to to go over multiple options was top tier. I worked with Debora Bresnathan and she was excellent throughout the entire process. With her help I was able to get a lower home insurance premium than my existing homeowners policy and a lower car insurance premium than the company I have been with for the past 6 years. Thanks Deb for all the help."

"I had a fantastic meeting with Robin, the team leader in Barbara's office. We met to go over my policies for the upcoming year and she was thorough and patient in explaining all of the line items to me. In addition, she offered ways I could save money on auto and home insurance and I even found out I could still submit a claim on sewer work at my house. I am so glad I met in person with Robin - she is personable and educated me on my coverage. I'd highly recommend this office."

"State Farm has been my family’s insurance provider for at least the past 40 years, and Barbara Shelly has been my personal agent for the past seven, since I relocated to Williamsburg. Barbara and her staff are beyond stellar. They have worked consistently to ensure my coverage never has never lapsed for any unforeseen reasons from auto billing hiccups to unexpected property coverage requirement changes. I highly recommend this office for State Farm. Knowing they are in my corner helps me sleep well at night."

"I never leave reviews but had to make an exception. I was in a really tough spot last Friday and needed help with adding a new vehicle to our policy. I reached out to the company that dose provide coverage for our fleet, well it was 4:38 pm, and I couldn't get anyone in that office to pick up the phone. Desperate, I called Barbs office, they answered and covered the truck so we would not be down. It was 4:59 they close at 5, now that is caring for your customers."

"Barbara Shelly State Farm makes everything easy when adding, adjusting coverage, talking about what’s recommended to project myself and family financially in the event an accident happens! We couldn’t be happier with their availability and response time when we need something!"

"I would just like to say my experience at State Farm has been absolutely wonderful experience. Largely in part because of Deborah Bresnahan who is a true professional at her craft!"

"Insurance can be overwhelming for me at times but if I am unclear about something in my policy, I can always rely on Deborah at the Barbara Shelly SF office to help me with a question. Actually speaking with my agent has become a luxury in these days of “chatting” with an online robot."

"We moved to VA 5 yrs ago and switched our 40+ year relationship with State Farm to this agency. I have been very happy overall, but our first claim here and first in almost 20 yrs, was for a faulty new refrigerator install that has been denied saying it was a leak over time (a week before the appliance company could get someone out here to determine why our ice maker wasn't producing ice & no visible water on the floor to alert us). East Coast Appliance did not connect the water line to the ice maker, but did connect the water line to the water source, causing a very small amount of water to squirt out the unconnected hose - so small that we never saw any water & we just assumed there was a clog somewhere in the line preventing water from getting to the ice maker. (We called State Farm after East Coast started ghosting us about taking responsibility for the faulty install.) We sent photos of the damage and fully explained the progression of events, including that the water had been squirting out for days before East Coast came out and discovered the problem. The claims adjuster assigned to us didn't contact us for many weeks after initially acknowledging our claim. The Shelly agency, which we finally contacted, said they had been trying to get updates from the claims agent with no luck, so told us if the repair was less than $10,000, the Shelly agency would handle it in-house and just issue a check, then go after East Coast as the responsibly party, so we thought it was a viable claim, assuming the agency had looked at our policy and seen it was covered. We followed their advice, got ServPro to come out and dry out the floors, got estimates to repair and submitted those (More than $10,000 when you included ServPro's bill) More weeks went by with no updates from either of them and then we got a call from our claims agent apologizing for the massive delays and saying our claim was denied, which Shelly agency said they would appeal and no follow-up since then. This was now 4 months since the bad install. I am not happy with the delays, that no one told us up front it wasn't covered and the lack of communication throughout."

"Robin was awesome to work with! I had a challenging project for her and she was professional, courteous and patient the entire process. She went above and beyond what I requested. Robin is a true asset to the business and I would highly recommend working with her. You won't regret it!"

"Prompt professional service every time."

"Deb is my go to and so easy to work with. Always friendly and professional, would highly recommend."

"Our SF agent, Deb Bresnahan, is always cheery and happy to help us, in the office or on the phone. When there’s a question she knows the answer or how to research it and let us know the answer."

"I talked to Deb Bresnahan about my insurance needs. She was very helpful and answered all my questions about my auto insurance and was able to get me the quotes I needed very quickly. She made the process very easy for me to understand, so I could make the best decision for my family."

"Deb is a great rep and always has the answers to my questions."

"Deb has been fantastic with all of our needs! She is very responsive and professional. She has helped us through many policy changes and updates over the years. Highly recommended!"

"Barbara Shelly has been our State Farm agent for nearly a decade. She is well-informed and connected - she has advised us well on insurance matters and has recommended 'top-tier' companies to perform repairs or provide services. We have made auto, home, and boat claims over the past 10 years and have received exceptionally fast, fair, and efficient service from her, her office staff, and State Farm adjusters. Barbara stays in touch with her clients and follows up personally on settled insurance claims to ensure that repairs and services were completed to our satisfaction.
