"We’ve been with Elaine Lavine, State Farm Insurance, for 29 years. She walked us through homeowners insurance policies, car and camper insurance and life insurance. What I appreciated most was how respectful and efficient they were during the time of my Mother’s passing. They helped me process the life insurance policy in a timely fashion. It was paid out quickly during a time of grief, in which, memorial events and services all required payment. What a huge help. They are always super friendly and we love Elaine and Patty."

Glad to have them on my side."

"I am writing this review to highly recommend Elaine LaVine State Farm Insurance Agency! I have used the services of this office for various Insurance needs, and they have always handled my accounts very professionally. Today I had to call to get some help with an insurance issue dealing with a rental house I own. I spoke with Lindsay and she was not only gracious, but very efficient, prompt and helpful in solving my problem. Over the years, I have found every member of the staff to be Excellent!
Let Elaine LaVine and staff handle your insurance needs if you are looking for high-quality services!"

Every time I call, the phone is answered with kindness and recognition…and it just feels like calling “home”. My insurance policies are very well managed and they make it easy to remain a customer. Patty (and the team) are incredibly informed, and always approach all business with kindness while looking out for my best interest.

"We visited Elaine unannounced to check out our condo insurance She could not have been more helpful and was very generous with her time. She clearly has very high integrity as she advised us to stick with our current insurer and even went through and evaluated our existing cover in some detail. In addition, she also gave us an interesting and informative update on the problems with house insurance in California post the wild fires of the last few years. I would recommend her unreservedly and would love to do business with her in the future."

"Patty saved the day! I called at 4:45pm on a Friday to reinstate my insurance and she said we can get it done by the end of the day! She was able to get all of the needed info and we ended the call by 5! She was professional and straight forward and helped me get on my own insurance for the first time since I’ve always been on my family’s plan. Thanks Patty!"

"I am a customer of State Farm insurance since I was 16. My 76th birthday is tomorrow so I have had many experiences with State Farm customer service. My experience with Patty and Carol and Elaine has been the best so far. They always answer with a friendly and professional manner and resolve any questions I have on that call. It has been a pleasure dealing with them since 1998 and look forward to many more years."
"Happy Birthday Tom! We are so grateful to be working with you for all these years! We look forward to our years ahead with you, Marci and Lauren."

"I have been with State Farm Insurance forever. Well, just about. I started with Elaine LaVine's Dana Point office in 2001, when we moved into the area. Before that I had car insurance with State Farm since I turned 16 in 1984. Before that my dad had State Farm insurance since he turned 16 and started driving. And before that, my grandfather had State Farm insurance since he could get it, which I think was in the early 1930's. When you add in my kids, there has been 4 generations of uninterrupted State Farm insurance in our family.
Any time I call in to talk to Carole of Patty, I am promptly greeted and recognized. They are quickly answering my questions based on my specific coverage as if they had my policy up on the screen before they even picked up the phone. I have several cars covered, my home, an umbrella policy, and even business insurance with State Farm. A big thanks to the Dana Point State Farm team for being awesome in every way."
"4 Generations!! We greatly appreciate you and your families!
I am so happy to hear that you feel well served in our agency! Thank you for sharing your kind words."
