Report
I have been using Watkins Insurance for my commercial insurance for over 5 years now. They have always done a phenomenal job in handling my insurance needs for my business. Misty Hernandez is always expedient when needing Certificate of Insurances for my customers. She always handles my requests in a professional and timely manner. She is extremely knowledgeable in insurance overall. Recently, I needed to add personal auto insurance to one of my vehicles. Karon Bowen quoted me several great options and took the time to explain to me what she believes would be in my best interest insurance wise. Not high pressure sales but professional and quality service from Watkins Insurance!
