"I am so impressed with Teresa and her office. I had a minor accident recently, not my fault, and she helped me find a local body shop. I got a quote for repairs the day of the accident, took it in the next morning and had my car back the following day. No muss, no fuss and I was so impressed with how everything went. The claims adjuster called the next week and determined the other person was 100% at fault. All in all it has cost me very little the process was smooth and easy. So thankful for Teresa and company!"

"Teresa is so kind and patient. I was looking for information regarding Canadian cars. It was quickly apparent that it's unlikely I would be able to be insured by her yet she was so patient and helpful with a lot of additional information she did not have to give me. I appreciate her kind professionalism and would recommend anyone who's looking for a very experienced and knowledgeable insurance agent."
We responded:
"Thank you, Jennifer, for the amazing review! Our team works hard to provide a great insurance experience in Ferndale and we are thrilled to hear that you are happy with our services. We are thankful you reached out and so sorry it didn’t work out. Please let us know if you have any future needs!"

"I have had an excellent experience working with the Teresa Garten agency for the past several years. I have been hit several times (none my fault) and they walked me through everything needed to get reimbursed. They have been very patient answering questions, helpful in searching for best rates, and always very friendly! I'm sad to leave since I've moved out of state, but will sign up with State Farm at my new home. Highly recommend!!!"
We responded:
"Thank you, Autumn! We appreciate you letting us know about your positive experiences with our agency and wish you the very, very best in your move. It has been wonderful getting to know you and seeing your successes! Cheers!"
