"Jack at Mark Hoogs State Farm was a great help getting a small problem resolved with my Drive Safe and Save device setup. He handled it quickly (successfully) and followed up a few days later with me to make sure that the problem was satisfactorily resolved. I’ve had nothing but good experiences with this agency and I’m glad I’m with them."

"Esmeralda Torres helped expedite a claim that had lingered for a month before she intervened for me. Kind, considerate, efficient and professional are words that define her. She is definitely someone who has your back. So thankful for her help.

"Mark Hoogs is very knowledgeable, professional and a friendly person in charge of his agency.
Over the years I have dealt with several of the staff members. Corinne has been excellent to work with and such a charming individual. Recently I have worked with a newer staff member named Esmeralda. She has been great on some issues with our California Fair Plan Coverage. Esmeralda has been well prepared for my issues and questions. And quite knowledgeable and friendly.
I could not recommend more highly the Mark Hoogs State Farm Insurance Agency!"
"Hi Lee - thanks so much for your kind review, it's always such a pleasure working with you as well and I'm delighted to know that Esmeralda was able to help. It's great customers like you who make our job rewarding!"

"As a senior, I have dealt with many insurance companies, but the best service that I have received is with Mark Hoogs office in Moraga. Everyone who works there goes above and beyond to help you, and deal with any issue you may have regarding your insurance. They are always so reassuring, even when you call about a claim, and are a bit scared. Kudos to Korrrine in particular! I don’t think that you can receive better service than with Mark Hoogs office!"
"Hi Diane - thanks so much for the kind review, we love working with you as well and are so appreciative of the opportunity to serve you!"

"Mark Hoogs and his office and team have been excellent. I moved to this team from a different office and it has been wonderful. Best decision I made. Very responsive and easy to contact. They go above and beyond what they need to do - always offering to help with anything they can. Also, I do not need to worry about any followup or errors by State Farm. Mark Hoogs’ team (Jason, Corinne, Juli, Emily, hopefully I didn’t forget anyone) makes it effortless."
"Hi Terry - thanks so much for the very kind review, we're so happy to have you as part of our customer family and look forward to working together for many years to come!"
