I used Mccashland Kirby Insurance for several years. They did an awesome job at searching out the best rates until recently.I started checking rates with other agents, and had no problem beating their rates now. They don't seem appreciate their customers like they use to. Their professionalism just isn't the same as it was.

I have been using since McCashland Kirby since 2000 for home and auto. Though I have never made a claim through them during that time, I always find their customer service to be friendly, prompt, and flexible to my familys changing needs.
