Chris Collins – State Farm Insurance Agent

This agency has been wonderful to work with over the past year. I was hit by an uninsured driver as I was walking recently, and they looked into all of the possible ways that I could be covered under my auto policy and got me set up with a claim that is going to take care of everything for me. Before I contacting them, I thought that I was going to have to take the driver to court on my own because my medical bills were substantial but not high enough for a lawyer to be interested in taking the case. I felt like I was totally out of options, and then they came through with a solution. They were prompt in returning calls, always personable and helpful on the phone, and even took the time to follow up after I filed my claim in a different department. For the first time since the accident, I’ve been able to relax and know that everything will be taken care of and I won’t have to end up in a lengthy legal battle with the driver who hit me. I can’t recommend this agency enough. I was always under the impression that it was a hassle to actually get an insurance company to cover anything — definitely not the case here. Everyone at the agency has been amazing. I have State Farm for both home and auto insurance on two cars, and I couldn’t be more pleased with their service.

we have been with Chris for 7 years. First we had auto and renters, then home owners and auto with him. We have been robbed, hit cars, been hit by cars, and beyond– his office is always highly professional, courteous, and provides suggestions for options when these things come up. A great agent.

This is the guy to go to for all your insurance needs. I started out with one policy and now I have my car, motorcycle, rental property and two other renters insurance with him! One stop shop! He even offered car loan when I was buying, which would have been nice if I didn’t already purchase the car!
Easy to work with, efficient and very helpful with questions and what if situations!

I’ve has Chris as my agent for going on 9 years. He came to my apartment on a weekday evening when I was looking to switch insurance from Geico to State Farm. I believe I called him randomly when I search online for agents and was suprised he made house visits. I was a fresh college grad with a new apartment at the time. Flash forward nearly 9 years later and I still have him as my agent, I’ve moved up quite a bit in life to owning my own home and he is now one of the top state farm agents in the country, even appearing in a discount double check commercial! Chris’s agents have always been helpful and willing to fight for their customers. I haven’t had a bad experience with state farm and this is due mainly to Chris and his staff, not necessary state farm. Chris has been a pleasure to work with and I would recommend him to anybody.

Chris Collins has been great to work with. He is extremely knowledgeable and not too pushy. I have literally referred as many people as I can to him since it’s hard to find a good agent. In the 4 plus years of working with him we have had our car hit a few times (city dwellers) and our condo broken into. Going through the claims process was very easy and we received a check right away. I highly encourage people to work with him!

Back in 2005 I needed insurance for my motorcycle and I needed it within 24 hours. To earn my business he met me at my place of work and went end to end to take care if me. Move forward 8 years and I have all my vehicles and property insured through his office. Really a great group of people. Chris has a genuine desire to help his clients and it shows with his actions and rigorous follow up. Definitely a valuable person to have on your side.

Chris and his team have always been professional and helpful with every change I’ve needed in coverage over the past 8 – 10 years. Chris is great to work with and follows up with every request to ensure complete satisfaction. I would recommend Chris and his team to anyone.

Chris is always helpful and working for my best interest. I’ve had all my policies with him for years and even made a few claims. I’ve never had an issue, never had a rate bump, and never felt like I was being taken advantage of. Overall, the best possible experience from a business and insurance agent.

I was an insured of Chris Collins when I lived in Chicago. This is the best agent I have ever had. Though his office was in Niles he came to meet me in the city probably costing him more than the commission on my premium. The service is great, his staff is prompt, corteous and knowledgeble. Chris defines what an insurance agent should be.

I’ve had my personal homeowners, auto, and umbrella insurance with Chris for about 4 years. He and his associates have always been extremely responsive and helpful. Even when I simply forgot to pay a bill one time, they were able to reinstate the policy with no lapse in coverage, which is something that «online» insurance companies may not do. (For example, E-​Surance let my policy lapse in a similar situation back in 2006 because my credit card had expired, and so I ended up with a small lapse in coverage which they wouldn’t correct.)
Overall it’s great to work with real people, and I highly recommend Chris and his agency.

He’s great to work with! We have several policies with Chris and him and his staff have always been awesome!

I’ve been with State Farm Insurance, Chris Collins for approximately three years. So far, his rates have remain stable and level of staff service exceptional. Still in the back of my mind, I wonder how this relationship will change if I make a claim… To Be Continued.

Agent Chris Collins is the best there is. He cares about his clients and their needs. Never a pushy agent. If he suggests something, you probably really need it. Always there to help. Office staff are equally as helpful. I’d refer him to anyone and have.

I am sad that I am leaving Illinois and have to switch insurance carriers. I am definitely staying with State Farm as they have been wonderful to me over the past few years. Chris is the best. His people are quick to respond to questions and made sure to keep me informed as to the changes and details of my account.
