State Farm® Insurance Agent Ian Minnigerode

"Ian, as a State Farm agent you are the funnel that guides current and potential clients to those who make policy. You may indeed provide impeccable service for customers; however, if said customer later has an issue with a claim or a complaint this does not absolve you from responsibility. Those on the receiving in of the $250 million Class Action Lawsuit settlement were all guided by agents (like yourself) knowingly or unknowingly aware of the current and past actions of your employer. Policy is dictated from the top down. If you are aware of this conduct and do not voice your concerns on behalf of your potential clients then you too Sir are complicit. Cosumers have a right to know before they make a decision that could and obviously has impacted the lives of so many families. Reading the ingredients prior to consuming the product allows one the choice to decide to not ingest poison or reep the consequences. Doing so after the fact defeats the purpose, your customers have a right to know that State Farm is anything but a "Good Neighbor". Stand up people, BOYCOTT STATE FARM!"

The lawsuit claimed that State Farm used non-profit organizations to secretly fund the election of Illinois Supreme Court Justice Lloyd Karmeier. -Algorithmic bias (Ongoing): Since at least 2022, multiple lawsuits have alleged that State Farm's claims-processing algorithms are racially biased and disproportionately flag Black policyholders' claims for extra scrutiny and delays. -2025 Alabama lawsuit: In October 2025, an elderly Black couple in Montgomery, Alabama, filed a federal lawsuit alleging that discriminatory AI tools subjected their claims to heightened scrutiny, causing delays and financial hardship. -2024 Illinois lawsuit: In August 2024, a federal judge ruled that a lawsuit alleging State Farm treated claims from Black-majority zip codes in Illinois as presumptively fraudulent can move toward trial. -Discrimination during claims (2025): In September 2025, a Black policyholder in Texas filed a lawsuit alleging State Farm mishandled his auto claim and subjected him to unreasonable administrative hurdles and delays that are not typically imposed on other claimants. -Hmong American discrimination (2017): A 2017 class-action lawsuit filed in Minnesota alleged that State Farm engaged in discriminatory practices against Hmong Americans by delaying or denying auto insurance coverage, forcing them to pay higher premiums and creating financial burdens. -2015 class-action settlement: In 2015, State Farm agreed to pay $250 million to settle a class-action lawsuit.

"Mike with Ian State Farm has been a blessing. He kept up on his sales funnel and months later reached back out with a lower rate than Progressive provided. Was going to wait until the policy was up but due to Progressive increasing the policy by 700+ without communication, I decided to drop them causing urgency for a new policy. I called Mike and within minutes was ensured for a 6-month policy. His persistency, dedication to customers, and implementation to act on urgency was very solidifying, I made the right choice. go mike! this was just for auto policy fyi."
