John helped us during life events transitioning our health insurance and then to Medicare. He is extremely knowledgeable and efficient. I can’t imagine a smoother, stress-free experience.
I have had the pleasure of meeting with Brad Shannahan and I recommend him and all of the Giunta Insurance company to help with your insurance questions. They make the process easy!
I have dealt with Brad at their office and he has been fantastic! Very knowledgeable, no high pressure, he just clearly explains the options and asks the right questions to help make an informed decision. Highly recommended!

Our agent explained coverage options clearly and found a better bundle than our previous carrier. Claims follow-up was prompt when we had a minor auto incident.

We moved from out of state and needed new auto and home policies quickly. They walked us through local requirements and wind deductibles without pressure.

Compared three carriers for homeowners and auto. Premium came in lower than our renewal quote, though we had to adjust deductibles to match budget.
— Priya K. · Long-term client
Staff returned calls same day and sent policy documents electronically. Would recommend for anyone shopping independent agents in the area.
— Michael R. · Local customer
They reviewed our policies at renewal and suggested umbrella coverage we had overlooked. No hard sell — just practical advice.
