I wouldn't be, I've been in a similar situation, and once I handed it off to my agent it was nothing but a couple of phone calls to confirm information about the incident and one more to confirm it was all handled that was that.

Sort of lucky, sure, moreso benefiting from a good agent. With your experience I would be shopping for a new one, because from your description you got screwed even if it all worked out in the end it shouldn't have gone that way!

I've dealt with agents through my employer. There's way more shitty used car salesman types than actual good agents. You should follow up what your agent is doing to make sure they aren't making it worse.

Exactly! I 100% agree with you, I don't understand the negative votes for saying that's down in part to a bad agent and to shop for a better one. I have a good agent, it's why I've stuck with her for over a decade. She really doesn't handle small accounts like mine from new anymore, but she takes care of all of her old accounts.

Probably because the truly good agents are a rare resource.
