Case manager Amanda is horrible

Case manager Amanda is the most unprofessional, rude, and incompetent person I have come across. I’ve spent the last two years trying to settle my case and have been given the runaround, ignored, and lied to. I have asked to speak to Mr allaire numerous times and never have. I’m not sure if he has... even seen my case file and knows how poorly this Amanda has handled it or if he has and just doesn’t care. My case should have been settled long ago but come to find out from State Farm Amanda hasn’t done allot of the things she claimed to have done. Her attitude when I finally get her to answer my calls was nasty and gave me the feeling that she definitely didn’t have my best interest in mind and even told State Farm I was being impatient. Not sure how waiting over two years could be seen as me being impatient. My case is still unresolved but I had t terminate my contract with this office and will try deal with the insurance company myself. My recommendation to my allaire is to fire Amanda before she totally runs your name. I would like to continue having you represent me personally without Amanda if possible if not I will seek representation elsewhere.

Dear Mr. R, We’ve spoken several times and I completely respect your opinion. Again, I am sorry you were not happy with the results. As I, and my paralegal Shar, had explained - sometimes, as a case progresses, (depending on the facts and other circumstances) the settlement possibilities aren’t necessarily what was originally expected. I do apologize for my employee, the case manager you mentioned above, and her apparent lack of understanding and empathy. Rest assured we have warned her and are giving her additional training so she can improve her customer service skills. Despite your feelings, we wish you well and hope you will reconsider us in the future if you are ever again in need of legal services in this area of law. Best regards, James Allaire, Esq.
