At the J. Woodward Farmers® Insurance Agency we have a simple mantra: "where an educated consumer is our best customer". Simply put, most people know exactly how much they are paying for insurance down to the penny however when you ask what it covers the typical response is "I am fully covered". That is when we at our Agency ask, "what is full coverage" and when was the last time you sat down to thoroughly review your policies and coverages. It is always surprising to us that while many people have a general idea of their coverages they do not realize the level of exposure that still exists or the options that are available-typically a result of trying to pinch pennies (as we all are these days!). We welcome the opportunity to earn your business and are happy to sit down with you to review your current coverages, explain what they mean and then offer our recommendations. And how's this for a novel approach-we are happy to do this regardless of your ultimate decision, yes, regardless of whether you choose The J. Woodward Farmers Insurance Agency or another carrier/Agency. We call it "pay it forward". Give us a call today and let us prove to you that premium service, superior coverages and competitive pricing do still exist!
Farmers® updated their logo and we are one of the first offices in the state of Maryland to proudly display our new sign with the new logo! So with a "fresh new look" at our office stop on by to see the new sign and take the opportunity to take a "fresh new look" at your policies-Homeowners insurance, Auto insurance, Business insurance, Life insurance¹ and any other line of insurance that you currently have insured with another carrier. Our goal at The Woodward Agency is to help educate our customers so that they can make the most informed decision possible when it comes to their insurance needs. Whether it is with our agency or another insurance company we are happy to review your insurance policies and make recommendations to help ensure you have the proper coverage.
I bring over 25 years of business experience to my Farmers® Insurance Agency in Parkville, MD, 10 of which was with the largest car rental company in the United States that serves the insurance replacement rental market. During my tenure there, my focus was the insurance industry working directly with claims offices, insurance agencies and regional offices to align the needs of their customers to the services we provided. Not only has that experience provided great insight it has also provided the foundation for the way in which we conduct our business at the Woodward Farmers Insurance Agency-customer centric. Additionally, as a graduate of the University of Farmers I have been through rigorous training to help ensure that we are thoroughly trained and properly educated in order to provide you a comprehensive understating of Farmers insurance products. I personally invite you to schedule an appointment with me so that we can review your insurance policies to help ensure you have the proper coverage. We welcome the opportunity to earn your business!
