The agency demonstrates people skills. The agency demonstrates human kindness with the ability to actively listen to its customers. I have never had to wonder if I would hear back from the agency regarding my concerns. Someone has always responded in a timely manner. The agency is very helpful and strives to make sure that I understand and is satisfied with the subject matter at hand.

5 star ratingThe McClatchy team is always very thorough, educational, and get's you the best quality & price available. I had them shop my E&O insurance last year and they told me they could not beat my current E&O coverage for the price. The entire process was very seamless & smooth and by the end of it I knew I had the best I could get!!

So if you're on the fence about your current insurances and you want to know what your options are, give them a call!

5 star ratingI just wanted to take a minute and let everyone know how awesome Harold and his group are at McClatchy Insurance in taking care of our business insurance needs. They take care of our general liability, garage keepers as well as our workers comp policy. Elisabeth turns around certs of insurance for clients and vendors typically within hours of the request. Dick has been there helping me since the beginning back in 2007, since I started my business as a handyman/home medical device retailer which has morphed into becoming a specialty and general contractor and has helped guide me though the complex world of business insurance. No matter what your insurance needs are, I am sure that Harold and his awesome team at McClatchy insurance will help point you in the right direction!

5 star ratingI can honestly say that getting my two auto, renters and an umbrella policy(s) through McClatchy Ins., was the most enjoyable process I've experienced. I was greeted and offered refreshment (they have chocolate truffles)! The actual cost of my multiple policies is exactly what I was quoted. The policies were issued immediately, which allowed me to contact my "former" insurer and cancel. Seriously, take your declaration pages to McClatchy Insurance and request an insurance review and quote - I received better coverage(s) for less money, and enjoyed the process. Thank you Barri, Harold, Eesa, Helen, Dick, Bill and Emma!

5 star ratingI have been working with the McClatchy Insurance Agency, specifically with Dick Lemon for about 4 1/2 years and Elisabeth Nidoy for about 1 1/2 years through work. These two people are not only extremely friendly, but very knowledgeable, thorough and quick to respond, which is becoming very rare these days! If we run into issues, Dick explains the situation so I understand and then they move forward and get the job done....and they are 'fun' to work with!

5 star ratingAfter 25 years with Mercury Insurance and 3 previous attempts over the years to find a more cost effective option, McClatchy Insurance not only lowered my insurance premiums significantly but did it with the kind of customer service we all think went away years ago. It's still alive and well with them. Give them a shot.

5 star ratingAfter years of being dissatisfied with insurance brokers for one reason or another I found Dick Lemon at McClatchy Insurance. His attention to detail and honest straight forward attitude has been a breath of fresh air into one of my least favorite aspects of being a business owner. I highly recommend Dick and his staff at McClatchy Insurance.

5 star ratingI have been using McClatchy Insurance for all my insurance needs for approximately five years now. They are consistently responsive and informative, and sell high-quality policies.

When I was thinking about changing insurers due to a price increase, they were able to compare similar products from a variety of companies and provide me with good, well-informed advice about my options. As it turns out, I was already with the best company for my needs, but they didn't just tell me this, they showed my why it was true.

I cannot recommend McClatchy (or its owner, Harold Newbill) highly enough. They are honest, their prices are fair, and they put the customer first.

They have helped me navigate the world of insurance for my businesses as well as my autos and home policies. They are detail oriented and I am confident that I have the best coverages and policies available. I had a challenge with one policy awhile back, and they stepped right up, took care of things and made it easy for me. Great agency.

5 star ratingI produce aerial and acrobatic circus entertainment for corporate events. Please take a moment to imagine the complexities of such a strange niche business, and then consider how esoteric the insurance needs are. Is your head spinning yet? Yeah, mine too - that's why I rely so heavily on Dick and Elisabeth, the ONLY professionals I have ever found who can navigate the these treacherous waters with the greatest of ease!

He is incredibly informative and gives every indication that he's 100% trustworthy. If I were to pick someone to trust in protecting the things in life I've worked so hard for it would most certainly be Harrold!

5 star ratingI know a good agent, because I've had bad ones. Harold Newbill (the owner) is excellent. And because Harold is excellent, the agency is excellent. Harold is smart, helpful and a great listener. He gets back with you quickly when you leave a message. He's detail oriented -- which is very important with insurance. I'm a very happy customer, and when someone does a good job, I feel obliged to let others know.

I've coordinated my auto and renter's insurance with Harold and McClatchy Insurance since January 2015. Harold and his staff personally took the time to sit down with me, assess my risk tolerance, and make strong personalized recommendations based on my current lifestyle. I feel very fortunate to have a personalized connection with an agent of his knowledge, experience, and dependability and would recommend his company to anyone looking for the same.

5 star ratingI've been working with McClatchy Insurance Agency for 2 years and have had nothing but great experiences with their staff. Jeff handles my business insurance and is the most knowledgeable agent I've dealt with! Michelle took care of my rental insurance and she is also wonderful to work with and very knowledgeable. When I first walked into their office I was offered coffee and was seen immediately after. Harold and his team are great, I highly recommend McClatchy for any of your insurance needs.

Dick has been the most effective insurance agent we’ve used thus far. In our line of business it is often when we’ve imposed on him timelines that are nearly impossible. Not sure how he does it every time but he pulls through whenever we’re in a jam and need insurance within the hour. I would recommend Dick Lemon to all of my friends or collegues who are looking for a dependable and knowledgeable insurance agent. He’s the master at his trade!

Great customer service!!! McClatchy Insurance Agency saved me about 400.00 the first year I switched to them. The team of people here really know what they are doing. We increased my coverage with less money. I was with Allstate before for over 22 years. I am super happy with McClatchy and I would recommend you give them an opportunity to quote your insurance needs.

I have worked with Harold for the past several years, I have worked on several different projects with his staff and I find all them to be professional and informative. They have always put the client’s needs above all else. They provide the service and types of homeowners’ insurance that the other “bigger” companies cannot provide along with hands on help and advice for making the right decisions about protecting your home and personal property!

He is always professional, timely and by far, the best insurance agent in Sacramento. I have been a client for 15 years and cant imagine that anyone else can provide such personalized service.

I am extremely delighted and grateful to have Harold as my Insurance Agent. “While you hope never to have to use your insurance, it sure is nice to have it when necessary.” This is how I felt when my house was broken into the Wednesday before Thanksgiving. It was terrifying to see all my belonging thrown around the house with many of them missing. My first call was to Harold. He came over right away. As both my friend and my insurance agent, Harold helped me stay calm and look around. He is an expert and helped me understand the procedures and various rules on stolen goods. Thankfully Harold had encouraged my husband to get extra insurance on my jewelry. Due to this, I was able to get 100% of my missing jewelry covered, which would not have happened without the extra insurance on the policy. Together Harold and I made a list of all that was stolen. McClatchy was very easy to work with. With just a little paperwork, I was reimbursed for my lost belongings and was able to put my home back together. I highly recommend Harold and his company. I don’t know what I would have done without him.

Harold is an incredible service provider and the best at what he does. Having worked with him as my family has continued to grow and change he has always made sure that the right pieces are in place at the right time at the best cost. I value and trust his judgment as an expert in the field and know when he makes a recommendation it comes with experience, research and looking out for mine, my family’s, and my previous business’s best interests.
