· “There is a very nice staff who always do their best to make sure what you need is taken care of. They always speak politely and are never rude, they've helped me many times with payments and just checking in on the status of your insurance. Very great place to do business with.”
· “Can’t say enough good things about this office. Kent took the time to explain every detail of my policies and the options available to me. The response time to issues by their staff is impressive. Katelyn and Celeste have both been amazing. When I need to make changes or need anything at all they are on top of it right away every time. Highly recommend!”
· “I was actually Kent’s very first hire, before he ever had an office. We worked from his home. I have been with State Farm for years, and transferred to his office upon him opening. I can honestly say that I have NEVER seen another insurance agent that goes above and beyond to assist people and families with their needs. He doesn’t try to sell products, but rather listens to the people affected and their needs. His office staff is of the same quality and structure. Hands down, the best in Paducah and the state. There is a reason why he wins awards!!! More importantly than being my agent, he is a friend.”
