"Very unprofessional office! Went in to speak to someone about my policies and sat at agent Alex Steinmetz desk to see an open can of beer. She is extremely unprofessional and is apparently handling clients personal information while intoxicated and Mr. Cantu is aware and allows his agents to drink on the job apparently. Canceled all my policies I had at that office and will never be coming back. Worst and most unprofessional insurance office I’ve ever encountered. Very sad."

"Ismael has been more than compassionate towards my family over the years. He has gone far and beyond what any insurance agent needs to be. My daughter passed away, and he has helped us not just with her life insurance, but her car insurance, and the recovery of her things. I have only good things to say about them."
"Rosalba I’m glad we could be there for you. I think about your daughter and your family all the time and we will never forget our interaction with you. Thank you for this review as personal as it is , we are here for you. "

"Terrible agent and communication! They will promise callbacks and never call. Almost cost me $16k in earnest money because they were working on a mortgage policy and kept promising a callback and ghosted us after being with StateFarm for over 20+ years. If you ever have any claim they will drop you with just a letter in the mail. Shame on everyone in this office for their poor communication and business practices. They blame corporate instead. Please use caution before getting insurance here. We have perfect credit, perfect payments, and had an unfortunate accident that caused them to drop us entirely when we have multiple home, umbrella, auto, mortgage, and life insurance."
"Steph it is difficult for me to answer you individually since I don’t know who you are. If the company non renewed you we would be glad to discuss. I am in the office M-F, a single accident likely would not be the cause for a non renewal. Non renewals are made by underwriters not our local office and include many factors. If State Farm did drop you we would ask that you contact us to see if we can have underwriting consider an appeal. We do our best to return all calls and would like to review this issue. "

"I've had a fantastic experience with Ismael Cantu and his team. They've consistently shown kindness, helpfulness, empathy, and understanding. I wholeheartedly recommend Ismael to anyone seeking the best options and solutions tailored to their needs. His dedication to his customers is truly exceptional."
"Thank you Amy. In this market insurance is a bit to handle but we try always to do what’s right for you. Talk soon!! "

"I would rather give Ismael and his team zero stars. Ismael "provided" liability insurance for my business. However if we ever had questions, concerns or needed clarification, he and his team were non-responsive. We have been trying to get answers and clarification for 3 months, we have constantly been told, "he will get back to you", "he is working on hail claims", "he will look into it", "I am not licensed so I can't answer that question", so on and so on. Due to a lack of transparency, not providing essential documents, extreme lack of communication, and unethical behavior, we have canceled our coverage with State Farm."
"April we are sorry your policy was non renewed due to underwriting. Unfortunately due to delays in audits and overall internal operations we could not get you what you requested, although we had constant communication with your staff. It is not our offices intent to delay or not be transparent but at your request we could not provide your documents due to reasons that we will not discuss on this forum. On my last email I apologized for the handling and agreed that State Farm could have done better. "

"Ismael Cantu at State Farm is definitely my good neighbor! 🙌 If you need an insurance guy who’s actually there when you need him, Ismael is your guy! We recently had a flood at an apartment we were renting. It was a complete disaster! All I had to do was call Ismael and he made things so much better! He got our claim in and got the ball rolling to get us into a much better living situation. This was the second time I received amazing help from Ismael. I have both auto and renters insurance with him. Both times Ismael was on top of it and made the situation much, much better. I highly recommend Ismael Cantu at State Farm for all your insurance needs!! Thank you, Ismael!!"
"Jennifer hate that you went thru all of that. Glad we could do what we did. Will always be grateful for you as a customer. "

"Oh my gosh let me tell you about Josh, He was refreshing like a cool breeze, the air debonair service on feel good like fingers through my hair, support like a chair, I could tell that he care, connected like the bridge to my lair, felt he was there like Sonny to my Cher, had my smile on flare, find a better rep. I dare…"
"That’s Josh for you. Thank you for the review Gerardo. Welcome! "

"Working with Janet Bell was a great experience in switching my insurance to State Farm. She explained the policy details and worked through my requirements to get me the best rate amongst the competition. I would highly recommend Janet and Ismael Cantu, the State Farm Insurance Agent. Thank you Janet."

"Bella from Ismael’s office is a delight to work with. She has gone above and beyond on multiple occasions to help me ensure that everything is dialed in with my insurance policy. The ability to call and text a local agent that knows my personal situation, instead of having to deal with long wait times and customer service representatives was a big part of the reason that I chose to go with State Farm for my home and auto policies."

"I have been with Ismael's State Farm team for several years, and they always provide the best, easiest service! From auto to renter's to now homeowner's, every policy has been fair, affordable, and simple to change. Huge shout-out to Ismael's team, and my agent Josh B, for always looking out for me! Cheers to many more years!"
"Azurean, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review! Nothing is more important to our office than providing the right insurance coverage for our customers' needs, and we are thrilled that you are happy with your experience. We appreciate you for letting us be your good neighbor!"
