Allstate Insurance: Joe Schneider

After my previous update I’m happy to say that I can give this agency 5 stars! I’ve finally received my insurance. Joe and his staff made an effort to speak with me, not only has the staff changed my views I’m happy with my insurance plan & rates. Joe and Telly have done an amazing job! It’s good to be home with my family at Allstate.
I would like to update my experience. After writing this review Joe reached out to me and gave me a great deal on my insurance as I know he’s very capable and reliable, but his staff was lacking! Everyone aided in making my All State experience to say the least was fantastic. I’ve been with them going on a year and it’s delightful! Thanks Joe AND his team!

I would like to officially recant my previous mediocre rating fro Joe Schneider and become a loyal advocate of this agency once again. Joe and his staff (Carly Gray) especially are hands down one of the best insurance agencies I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with. I would trust Joe and Carly to treat any recommendation I pass along with the same dignity and fairness they have shown me over the years.

I am going to leave this agency as ok at this point because while it had originally given me a great quote they have recently pulled the state wide increase card and jacked my policy in the 65% increase range. I will be shopping around to see if I am buying the story and I will be appending my stars rating as appropriate.

I just got my condo insurance through this office. Telly Dambra was my agent. She did a super fantastic job. She was able to review all the parameters of the new condo with my very quickly. She offered up a very competitive rate. She was very friendly and helpful on the phone. I give her and this agency the highest recommendation. Please consider them for your insurance needs.

Joe was a great agent for us for 9 years. I recommended him to several friends.
When we had to file our first claim due to a robbery, the Alllstate corporation was very unresponsive and difficult to work with. We could not get a return phone call from Joe for assistance. He had assistants call us back, but they showed a lack of understanding of the policy and provided no help in getting us the assistance we needed.
When our claim was closed, without our consent, we had some uncovered losses and couldn’t get answers to many of our questions.
— Following the initial post of this review, Joe did reach out to me to express concern at how this incident was handled and apologize. He let me know that is not the way he wants his business represented. I appreciate his willingness to try to right the situation.

I started the insurance process with Carly Gray since last summer. I was having a lot of issues with my old insurance provider but I had 3 policies with them so the decision to switch was not easy. Carly was really patient with me throughout the process and was very prompt in getting everything done. My only regret was that I did not switch to Carly sooner because it would have saved me lots of headaches. I truly appreciate her professionalism, effective and knowledge in insurance industry. Carly is a great assets to your team!

Joe’s team is amazing! Telly Dambra does an excellent job of connecting with her clients and focuses on our needs… she’s an absolute asset to Joe & All State.

Joe and team were fantastic! So easy to work with and they saved us over $ 700 per year on our home and car insurance! Honestly, the process took only a few mins to work with Telly and get her the info to make the switch. I’d highly recommend Joe’s agency to everyone! Thanks again Joe and Telly!

Joe Scheider and staff «Always» very helpful and friendly!!!

This ALLSTATE branch is one of the most efficient, professional places I have ever worked with. I actually teach customer service and you blow me away. i deal with people from 6:30am, till night and no one is as fast and efficient as you. You even go above and beyond calling my mortgage co for me. I’m speechless.

When I had to evaluate insurance companies in the past, the first thing I would think to myself is YUCK! I would loathe the fact that I would have to talk to someone who was going to try to sell me a bunch of stuff I didnt need, and pressure me to buy buy buy. You would not even know that Joe is part of a huge corporation, when speaking to him. Look, I know nothing about insurance. Someone could tell me I need I need road side assistance for a renters policy, and I would likely be swayed. Ok, Im not that bad. The point is. Joe took his time, and made sure I had the right products and the right protection to fit with where I am in life. Not only is Joe top notch at what he does, he is also one hell of a guy outside the office. My typical image of an «insurance guy», is someone who you find sipping martini’s at happy hour. Hard to explain, but you can look at someone and probably guess they are in insurance. Joe is quite the opposite. Spending a majority of his free time giving back to charities and cancer research. You’d be hard pressed to find anyone in the business that cares as much as Joe and his team of professionals.

Joe is as professional as they come. This is the agent I recommend to everyone in Chicago. You definitely won’t be disappointed. Great agency!

After years of squeezing every dime to stay up to date with my insurance payments I decided to look for an alternative and my friends suggested Allstate Insurance. I like Joe Schneider and his staff because they are professionals who are honest and care for their customers. They gave me a policy to cover my home just the same as the previous one but at a savings of just under $ 1000.
The quality of service is excellent with the staff going out of their way to ensure that your requirements are met while offering you a variety of options on your policy. At the end of the day, I was able to get some spending money that turned out to be a great relief considering the tight budget I had been on for a while. If you’re looking for insurance, look no further. Joe Schneider and his team are the best in Chicago-​by far!

When I lived in Chicago Joe helped me with insurance needs. He gives great advice, very cost effective, and guineinely cares about the people he helps. Reminds me of the small town insurance guy I had growing up in my small town. He takes an interest in what inportant to you and builds an insurance plan around your needs. Best of all he’s there when you need him.

Just moved into town and ended up calling The agency based on the reviews on Unilocal,and to be honest it did not fall short of a 5 star rating. Carly did an outstanding job and I got everything I needed fast. Highly recommended!

I went to Joe because of the ratings.
I previously had the agent from hell and was willing to do anything to get a new agent.
I walked into Joe’s office and told them I needed a new policy, I wanted to stay with Allstate but I would have left if I could not find another agent.
Within 15 minutes they had me with the same coverage at $ 700 less!
Joe gets the 4-​star rating for «Yay! I’m a fan.» because I am.
They allowed me to keep Allstate and look like a great team. I look forward to being their customer.

As a health insurance professional my specialty is not property and casualty insurance and when it came time for me to insure my engagement ring and acquire my first property insurance policy, Joe made the process real easy and even came by my office to assist. Have not made it to the storefront yet to meet the staff that everyone is raving about, but will soon. When it comes time to expand coverage from my renter’s policy I am for sure going back to Joe. Thanks again Joe!!!

Joe is an awesome agent. I would highly recommend doing business with him. Top notch professional.

Allstate Insurance Testimony — Joe Schneider– is the best agent and office that I have ever worked with in my entire life! Yes, I said entire life! I am sad to leave IL and lose his services, but his office offered to help me find another great agent in LA. Additionally, they offered to help me bridge the gap before I get settled in my new place. You don’t pay them for this — this is gratis — and really, out of the goodness of their hears. Thank God that good people exist! Joe, I wish you a million customers — you deserve it!

Not your typical Insurance man!
I recently changed insurance providers and after doing research, Joe and his team were able to save me over $ 1200 a year! With the same coverage as a competitor. I also bought a new home and was able to take my savings and put it toward the home owners insurance with a little spending money for my self! :)
Joe and his team really care about there customers i get regular useful emails not junk.
I have been so happy with the customer service here i have referred him numerous times to friends and coworkers.
GREAT JOB! and THANK YOU!
