Jackie Dansereau was recommended to me over a year ago by a friend. She has been kind enough to quote my policies for two renewals now, and I must say, Jackie is a gem of the insurance industry! Although she was able to provide competitive quotes for pricing, she reviewed the details of my present policy and recommended keeping the coverage that I presently have. Jackie has been professional, quick to respond, and I firmly believe she has the best interests of her clients at heart. She is very knowledgeable of policy coverages and explains things in an easy to understand fashion. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 100%, would do business with her.

I have dealt with Gary Clift at Western Financial Group since 2019 and have had nothing but great customer service. He is always responsive with any questions I have and each year ensures that he is providing me with the best rate and coverage he can with the insurers that Western Financial has a relationship with. Sadly, I have had to move to another insurer this year for a better rate, but I would not hesitate to return and work with Gary again if the opportunity arose. I would recommend Gary for your insurance needs.
