Darren Shimp-Taylor has been my family’s insurance man for years…..he first took care of all of my sick mothers insurance needs and in her last couple years she made sure I switched my coverage over to State Farm with Darren and it has been the best decision I have ever made! Darren takes his job very seriously as he is always available to his customers, he handles all of his customers needs quickly and thoroughly. Darren has always gotten me low rates, exceptional coverage, and done it quickly and efficiently! If you are looking for insurance that gives you great coverage, great prices, and the best customer service experience I highly recommend giving Darren a call! He will take the stress of purchasing insurance away and make you feel truly covered!!!
Darren has been a godsent. Anytime I have an issue I always have the confidence Darren will have the resolution. I've never been with Statefarm previously but after being Darrens client I refuse to go anywhere else. The care and understanding he has towards clients is incomparable and most greatly appreciated. If you arent his client now, you should be. 1000% recommend..
P.s. I usually never leave reviews for anyone but Darren is worth it. 👌
Absolutely 5 start service. Darren is more like having a family member in the insurance biz than having an agent. Saying he goes above and beyond would be cutting him short. Thank you, thank you, thank you sir.
Darren has been my insurance guy for going on 8 years now…I am not an easy person to impress, and Darren since day one has been nothing but exceptional! I jokingly call him “Five Diamond Darren” because he takes the time with you to answer you questions, strategize successful ways to find a path forward with insurance needs. Very grateful for Darren. I never hesitate referring my friends to Darren.
Our first experience working with Darren was a refi, and based on our previous refinancing experiences (different lenders) I wasn’t looking forward to going through the process again. Darren made it easy! The service he provided was so impressive that when we decided to make a change with our insurance policies, he was our first stop. No regrets! Darren is knowledgeable and provides great service- you can tell that customer satisfaction is important to him.
Thanks for being awesome 😁
Darren has been absolutely an amazing Rep. Hands down couldn’t find a better one. He actually cares about his customers and providing the best care and service he can. Any issues are always resolved so quickly and end happy. I will always appreciate him as my State Farm Rep. and so will you.
In searching for lower-cost insurance for weeks, a friend got me in touch with Darren. Darren is professional, responsive and was able to gain my trust quickly with his level of knowledge in both home and auto insurance. Finally, Darren was able to save us money when no other company could. It is not that other companies do not have the same to offer, it is simply because Darren took the time to ask important questions and learn all he could about our family to offer the best possible rates.
Darren has been my auto and home insurance agent for several years now and it is my honor to write him a 5-star review. He has been by far the BEST agent I have ever worked with. He is knowledgeable, responsive and has provided invaluable guidance throughout the past few years.
Recently I was involved in a hit-and-run incident and Darren went above and beyond - contacting multiple parties on my behalf. He made the experience so much easier on me and answered all my questions immediately or did the research over the phone to guide me in the right direction. Prior to this he helped coordinate an out of state windshield repair appointment. I have always felt comfortable contacting him with any questions I've had about my policy. For any insurance needs, I can guarantee he is the best candidate.

I’ve been with Darren for a couple years now and he makes it absolutely seamless and super easy for me to choose what I want without hassle. Sets my account perfectly the way I need my coverages and is always a text away when needed. I appreciate you a lot and thanks for your hard diligent work.
These 5 stars won’t amount to how awesome Darren is as my agent! He’s always responsive and will walk you through any questions you may have- even right over the phone! Down to earth and genuine💯
I just got a car insurance with him and he gave us the cheapest rate we ever got! Thank you Darren. He is very easy to reach and make the entire insurance process very fast.
If I could give Darren more than five stars I would do it in a heartbeat, he has always been there for me and my insurance needs through the years saving me a lot of money, if you want a trustworthy, knowledgeable, honest, friendly, always there for you agent then he’s your guy if you go with someone else then you will miss out on A+ service as well as savings to your pocket book.
I was introduced to Darren when I got my first car by a family member and he has been my agent ever since. Now my whole family is insured through him and has always been a godsend whenever we needed him. We couldn't ask for a better agent and person to have your back. Thanks Darren!

Darren has been tremendous in helping me with my insurance and home loan needs (yes he can help with those too!). I only had one minor claim but he immediately took care of it. I've had many questions over the years and he quickly answered them honestly. He will never try to sell you something just for a quick buck. If he is telling you about a product or service it's because he genuinely cares about you and your family or situation and thinks the product or service will be good for you. And he does home loans! I did a refi a few years ago and he helped me get connected with Rocket Mortgage and made sure I was taken care of throughout the process. Lastly, I recently was looking at consolidating debt and part of the service was to find the cheapest home/auto insurance policies. Out of 25 major companies, State Farm came in as the cheapest. So if you want the cheapest rates and the most trustworthy, professional, and reliable agent out there, just call Darren. You won't find anyone better.
Best Agent in the business! He always answers the phone, and finds the best bundles and deals for myself & my family! 10/10
I reached out to Darren for a review of my insurance policies and found I was paying more than I should have for insurance. Not only was he able to reduce my premiums without reducing my coverage but he is a really nice guy, very professional with great customer service. I would strongly recommend!

I had an outstanding experience working with Darren. I needed commercial insurance and didn't know who to call... I'm glad I found Darren. He was the insurance expert I needed... when other agents couldn't help me, Darren was able to get me coverage almost immediately. I'd highly recommend you give Darren a call... he provided me fast, great service. Thank you Darren!
Great guy! Very informative.
Darren Shrimp is the best of the best state farm agent i advice and recommend to anybody looking for good deals to go and call Darren Shrimp and get the best deal ever ...
Very easy to work with. I called to get a quote, and was able to get a very good rate. I feel like if I'm ever in need of his assistance, I will recieve help by a very knowledgeable insurance agent.
I reached out for a general question regarding my renters insurance and was not sure who my direct agent was. Despite Darren not being my agent, he was very helpful and provided guidance on my renters insurance policy and helped provide insight with the apartment issue I was having with my leasing office. Highly recommend Darren and his office! Thank you for all your help.

Darren was amazing!! I had been dreading having to switch insurance companies, Darren made it easy he was fun to talk with ! And Didn’t judge my situation!!!
Thank you again ... Mr and Mrs De Groat
I emailed Darren with some questions I had about our coverage and he was able to provide me with a prompt response as well as an explanation of the coverage. Thank you for all your help!
I don’t typically write reviews online but my experience with Darren has been exceptional! Unfortunately I’ve had some bad luck with my car lately, but Darren & State Farm have been incredibly responsive and willing to help/provide details whenever I ask. Thanks Darren!
Darren is AMAZING! I talked with a different insurance agent today and had a horrible experience, then called Darren and felt so much better. The whole process to get insurance was painless, and I would even say enjoyable! He was able to give me a great quote and answered all the questions that I had. Very nice and smart guy, I highly recommend going to him for your insurance needs. Thank you so much Darren!
By far, the BEST insurance agent I’ve ever had. Our previous agent was awful and we ended up in a really difficult (and expensive) situation. I called Darren and he worked with me until I felt comfortable and we had the best price. Now, almost a year later and I wouldn’t ever think of switching companies. Any question I have, he’s quick to answer and resolve. There’s never any hassle or headache.
Before having Darren as my agent i would shop for new insurance every 6 months just looking for a lower price. Now Its not something I do. I pay a very reasonable amount and receive excellent service. Every random question or need I have brought to Darren he has filled with lighting speed. If your in the market for new insurance you would be wasting your time if you continued looking after finding Darren. 10 outta 10
Very good agent! No complaints!!
Darren is quick, resourceful, proactive, helpful, and a good writer. As a result, our experience with State Farm is already head and shoulders above our previous insurer. It doesn't hurt that State Farm's premiums are very reasonable, as well. We're very happy with Darren's and State Farm's service.
Darren is by far the greatest agent I’ve ever had. He always has your best interest in mind and gives you a great deal. I have nothing but great things to say!
I would have given 4 stars because nobody’s perfect, but Darren comes as close as they come. He saved me $480 dollars for two vehicles. He wasn’t all business and we had a very pleasant, personal conversation.
Darren provides amazing customer service with a family oriented approach. His professional demeanor and understanding of my needs has led to me bringing all of my business to him. He has helped save money where it counts and coverage where it's needed, along with a nice chunk of savings as well. He also continues to be a phone call/email away. I'd recommend him to all my family and friends.
I have nothing but great things to say Darren gas saved me money and always a pleasure to speak with on the phone
Darrin is awesome, He helped me when I thought there was no help to be given, he is driven and willing to work with the customer no matter the situation is, and I appreciate this man for his hard work.. thank you Mr. Darrin.

Darren is a true professional with a keen interest in each clients financial health & optimum risk reduction. He doesn't stop at implementation of the initial policy, he keeps an eye on your situation as it may change over time, offering strategies that will provide appropriate protection & add value, sometimes in a way that actually reduces overall cost... Amazing! State Farm is the only true Mutual Company left, and Darren represents the company with distinction.
Darren has done a fantastic job getting us the best deal possible on our insurance coverage. Both Me and my wife both recently moved to the area, having Darren give us direction on our insurance needs, and saving us money was great, but he also made us feel very welcome. There may be a many Insurance company's and agents but I think it is quite rare to find someone as genuine, sincere and funny as Darren our visit has definitely made our day!
