We worked with Emily Shaffer to secure homeowners insurance for our first home. She was great to work with. She returned my calls quickly, she was able to be very thorough and knowledgeable about the insurance we were getting, and made it possible for us to get good coverage on insurance. I would definitely recommend using this company in the future for any insurance needs.
