"When I moved to Richmond in 1990 I made the mistake of using a national insurance agency that had no physical presence in Richmond. It wasn't good. I realized the benefits of having a local agent who was more responsive and available. For me, that was Ric Bergstrom. He's been my agent for 30 years and I couldn't be happier. He's answered all my questions, but even more importantly, he's helped protect my home, cars, assets and family. I'm with him until he retires!!"
"Hey Rick! Thanks so much for taking the time to leave us such a glowing review. We’ve loved being your agent for the last couple of decades. and no plans to retire any time soon!!!"

"Upon moving to Richmond, VA from Bloomington, IN, we contacted our son’s State Farm agent, Ric Bergstrom, for assistance during our transition. Ric and his key assistant, Margaret, were extremely helpful and RESPONSIVE in guiding us through every aspect of continued coverage per Virginia requirements. They were highly professional in every exchange we had we had with them. When we found & purchased a new home west of Richmond, they jumped through hoops to assure continued coverage of our holdings. Margaret even came off her sickbed to respond to urgent informational needs prior to real estate closing. In true State Farm style, this office really came through for us. We could rest easy knowing that we were in very good hands—for indeed we were—and still are."
"Hey Nick! Thanks so much! We have loved being your agent here in Richmond and Chesterfield!"

"Ric Bergstrom is an excellent insurance agent. He is knowledgeable, helpful, and has the experience may others do not. I've maintained various coverage through Ric and State Farm since 2009. Ric has always returned my calls quickly, answered my questions, and made excellent recommendations. I remember being a clueless college grad walking into his office the first time and his friendliness, helpfulness, and kindness that day has always stuck with me. Now, many years later, Ric continues to provide that same advantageous service. And how can I not mention Margaret? Margaret is the one who gets it done! If I have an administrative or billing issue with State Farm, Margaret is always on top of it. If you're looking for a State Farm agent, Ric and his team are the right choice!"
"Thank you so much for the kind words! We have loved being your insurance agent and really appreciate your business! I will make sure Margaret sees this too!! She's the best!"

"I have been with State Farm pretty much since I started driving, and I am almost 50 now. I have nothing but good things to say about Ric Bergstrom and his team. They have always been professional and always been fast to respond when I needed them. I recommend any body looking for home or auto insurance to give them a call. You won't go wrong."
"Thanks Kevin for the kind words. We love having you as part of our agency and protecting your home and auto! Ric"

"We were with Ric Bergstrom’s agency for about 26 years and have nothing but great experiences and interactions. His office managers over the years have all also been amazing. The whole office responds very quickly and resolves or adds things very quickly. Would highly recommend Ric and his office!"
"Thank you so much for the kind words. We have enjoyed helping you over the years with your insurance and wish you well with your move!"

"I consulted Ric a while back about a homeowners policy & wasn't aware of the consequences I might have faced had I not talked to Ric. Since I don't have a mortgage, Ric informed me that I could loose my house if i'm ever sued or in any kind of ligation that might result in my losing my home. Ric advised me that I needed an umbrella policy to protect me & my home if I'm ever faced with a legal catastrophe. So next time you're searching for insurance, whether home, auto or, in my case, umbrella coverage, look to a professional agent like Ric Bergstrom. He just might save you from losing your home & your possesions as well."
"Hi Bob! Thank you for the kind words! We are so glad you got great coverage and have proper limits! So many people don't understand how exposed they really are with their current coverage! Thanks again!!! RIc"

"I have been a State Farm policy holder for everything for over 50 years and have always felt that the company was with me when I needed them, which has not been very often thankfully. My agent, Ric Bergstrom is attentive and responsive and clearly has my interests foremost in his plan for my various policies."
"Thanks Lewis! We are all about making sure you have the coverage you need and that you understand your policies. Thanks for your continued business and for your impressive longevity with State Farm. Ric"

"Ric has been my State Farm agent since I moved to the Richmond area over 20 years ago. I chose him because his office was close to my house!! Best decision I made. He’s always been helpful and patient, especially when our teenagers started driving! When my car was totaled recently he helped me contact the claims department who was just as kind and helpful. I’m moving out of state soon, but plan to stick with State Farm and find a new agent."
"Thank you Diane! We have enjoyed being your Home, Auto, Boat and Life Insurance agent in Chesterfield for all these years and wish you the very best in your new home!!!"

"Ric has represented me for over 25 years. He is responsive and he has given me sound advice. I called him for advice before I purchased my last car. That's how much I value his advice. Margaret, who works with him, is super friendly and efficient. Ric is a terrific insurance agent and terrific person."
"It has been a pleasure being your Richmond VA State Farm insurance agent and look forward to many more years!"

"My car was totaled by a hit and run driver while I slept on the night of the 25th of July ,when I got to the car, the police had left a card on my windshield with the information on the hit and run and a report # I immediately called Ric's office and everything was setup within 25 min claim, car rental and towing and by this friday night the 30th of July the settlement was made,and the payment was in my checking account. I have been a client of Ric for over 20 years and have never made a call to him that he did not respond immediately. I have 3 policies including renters insurance with him, and I am not going anywhere else for insurance,so if you need insurance give him a call ! I highly recommend him and State Farm"
"Thanks Alan! It has been a pleasure having you as a client! Hope you find a new car that is perfect for you!!!"

"I’ve been a client of Ric’s for over 20 years and feel you won’t find a more honest, informed or hardworking person in the insurance industry. Whether ensuring we understand our current coverage or providing suggestions as our needs change, Ric is eager to share knowledge and explain options so we can make the best choices for our lives."
"Thanks for the kind words Corinne and thanks for your continuing faith in my office and State Farm! Here's to another 20 years...."

"I've worked with Ric for many years and he is the best in the biz. He has been there through several home purchases, a home fire, vehicles, car accidents, you name it. He is always responsive and will to help and provide advice. Very personable, friendly and just an awesome guy. I'll miss him now that I live in Florida but he has made me a loyal state farm customer! Thanks Ric!"

"Ric is seriously the “Ric from Statefarm” guy in the commercial. He is always available to deal with the crazy things life throws at us. He has great recommendations and takes care of all of our insurance problems. Definitely recommend!"
"Thank you so much for trusting us with your insurance program. "Ric From State Farm " has a nice ring to it...and what do you know? Khakis!!"
Geoff Stone

"My agent for almost 20 years, Ric Bergstrom and his team were always been there whenever "life" did its best to be unexpected. I was fortunate to only need call upon their expert assistance on a few occasions, and each time they proved themselves the textbook definition of true professionals (and I can't say enough great things about Margaret Chappelle, too). At the end of the day, "insurance" is about humanity—and the real lives of real people... and Ric truly knows this. More than a "fine agent," I consider him a good friend."
"Geoff I really appreciate the kind words. We really do consider our customers as more than just a home or auto insurance policy. Just trying to live the Like a Good Neighbor life!"
Steve Rall

"Ric was my agent for all the years I was a homeowner in Richmond. When I bought my first home, he did a good job of explaining my options. The one time that I filed a claim, they were extremely good with the response and I had not qualms about the settlement. They bring in all their own people to do the work. They paid the contractors directly and there was pretty minimal paperwork for me to handle. Alas, I am moving away from Richmond."
"Thank you for the kind words! We will miss you!!! Ric Bergstrom"

"Ric and Margaret are excellent. Ric works through the consequences of tweaking a plan in lots of different ways to get a policy that covers well and fits a budget. Really nice folks!"

"Ric Bergstrom is an outstanding insurance agent. He goes far and beyond being helpful and giving good advice on all your insurance needs. Let’s just say “He surpasses your expectations.”"
"Bob it has been a pleasure being your State Farm Agent over the years. Thank for putting your antique and classic car insurance with us!"

"Ric is not your stereotypical insurance agent! He doesn't throw products at you but rather, he asks questions about you and your family; he asks about your worries and what keeps you up at night. Ric gets to know you personally and then matches the right solutions for your particular situation. He helps you manage risk and protect those things that are important to you. He and his team are knowledgeable, courteous, responsive, and service oriented. They don't sell you something and then disappear ... they stay in touch; communicating with regularity and making sure everything is going well. If you want to experience a relationship-driven insurance professional, call Ric!"
"Thank you Sarah for the kind words and thank you for your business and continued trust in Me and State Farm. Ric"
