Customer Reviews

May 28, 2025

Ive worked with numerous agencies over the years, but none that combine knowledge, speed, and sincerity like Vantage Point Risk. Whether its trucking, manufacturing, or general business insurance, this is the A-team.

May 28, 2025

Our last agent couldnt figure out how to write our combo coverage for HVAC and plumbing. Ricky at Vantage Point Risk had it solved in a day. He even flagged a subcontractor exposure our old policy missed. Thats the kind of professional I want on my team.

May 28, 2025

We were looking to insure a mix of personal and rental properties, plus add umbrella coverage. Summer helped us structure the whole thing so it worked together without gaps. She's sharp, responsive, and made the process super smooth.

May 28, 2025

Juan is seriously the MVP. Anytime I call with a billing question, need a policy doc, or just forgot something, hes right on it with a great attitude. Ive never had an agency where customer service was this fast and friendly.

May 20, 2025

Vantage Point Risk is the gold standard in business insurance. Weve been with several agencies before, but no one took the time to explain, customize, and support us like this team. Whether you're in trades, transport, or retailthese are your people.

May 20, 2025

We had a hard time finding someone who really understood the risks in manufacturing until we connected with Vantage Point Risk. The entire experience felt like we were their only client. Truly top-notch expertise and service.

May 20, 2025

Working with Roger for our long-haul trucking company was a game-changer. He understood FMCSA filings, helped with multi-state coverage, and got our drivers onboarded fast. His knowledge of the industry is next level.

May 19, 2025

Sabina was fantastic! She walked my wife and me through our life and health insurance options with so much patience and clarity. We never felt pressured, just educated and empowered. Ive recommended her to my entire family.

May 16, 2025

We switched to Vantage Point Risk for our companys insurance after a bad experience with a captive carrier. I wish wed done it sooner. The coverage is better, the team is responsive, and I finally feel like someone has our back.

May 16, 2025

If you're a manufacturer or fabricator, don't waste time shopping aroundcall Vantage Point Risk. They understood the unique risks in our industry and got us better coverage for less. This team knows their stuff.

Our Commitment to Transparent and Trustworthy Reviews

We prioritize honest feedback from our clients to assist future customers in making well-informed decisions. Our review section showcases authentic experiences from real customers. When a less-than-positive review is submitted, we share it with both the agent and the reviewer to foster collaboration and improvement based on constructive feedback.
