What our clients are saying
"I recently worked with Shannon Adkins at Rising Star Insurance Group for a unique property in McKinney, TX that includes several cottages and a wedding venue. Shannon was incredibly easy to work with and took the time to clearly walk me through the coverages I neededboth during renovation and after renovation was complete. She made sure everything was properly structured so I could feel confident about protecting my property and opening my doors to the public. Its such a relief knowing I have the right coverage in place. Thank you, Shannon, for your expertise and guidance. I highly recommend working with her! "
"When our family companys insurance came up for renewal, I had a lot of questions. My father mentioned that with our previous agency, he usually just received a once-a-year call from an administrative staff member, nothing very hands-on. Since Ive trusted Scott Kakacek and Rising Star Insurance Group with my personal insurance for years, I decided to schedule a meeting with Scott to review our business policies. Im so glad I did. Scott took the time to walk us through everything, answered all my questions, and made sure we had the proper protection in place. We ended up with a better-rated carrier, stronger coverage, and a more competitive price. As if that wasnt enough, Scott even introduced me to one of his clients who needed our companys servicesso not only did we improve our insurance, but we also gained a new client as well. Thats the kind of relationship and service you dont find every day. Thanks, Scott!"
"I was hit by a drunk driver with no license or insurance, and my car was not drivable. Rising Star Insurance Group immediately stepped in, calmed me down, and helped me file my claim from start to finish. Im incredibly thankful they had advised me to carry uninsured/underinsured motorist coverageit saved me. My car is fixed, and Im back on the road. I couldnt ask for a better insurance agency."
"I live in Chicago, Illinois, and my elderly mother lives alone in North Dallas. Like many adult children, the little things are what keep me up at nightespecially her safety. Last week, my mother told me she had a flat tire on the way to the grocery store. My heart sank. I asked her what she did, and she said she called her insurance agent to see if she had roadside assistance. They told her she didntbut then asked where she was located and told her to stay put because someone was on the way. Within minutes, Scott Kakacek with Rising Star Insurance Group personally showed up and changed her tire. As a daughter living states away, I cannot put into words how much that meant to me. I immediately told my mother she is never allowed to change insurance agentsever. This level of care, compassion, and integrity goes far beyond insurance. Thank you, Mr. Kakacek, for taking care of my mother in her time of need. You have earned a customerand a familyfor life."
"Ive worked with several insurance agents over the years, but no one has ever had my back like Scott Kakacek at Rising Star Insurance Group. Scott and his team truly look out for my best interests and take the time to make sure my business is properly protected. I sleep better at night knowing the business I worked so hard to build is in their hands. Highly recommended!"
"I didnt realize how underinsured I was until Shannon Adkins with Rising Star Insurance Group reviewed my policy. My husband passed away in November, and I suddenly had to take on all of the financial responsibilities on my own. A neighbor recommended Rising Star, and I am so grateful I made the call. Shannon took the time to explain everything clearly and truly looked out for my best interests. I now feel empowered and confident knowing Im properly protected. I highly recommend Shannon and Rising Star Insurance Group."
"I recently moved from California to Texas and needed help finding the right health insurance plan. I reached out to Rising Star Insurance Group, and Scott contacted me within minutes. He took the time to understand what I needed and the price range I was comfortable with. Scott emailed me three of the most competitive quotes and walked me through each option over the phone, explaining the differences clearly and making sure I understood everything. He was extremely patient, thorough, and answered every question I had. After I chose the plan that was best for me, he sent me a link, I singed up and paid my premium all online. It was so easy! If youre looking for an insurance agent who is responsive, knowledgeable, and genuinely focused on finding the best fit for you, I highly recommend Scott and Rising Star Insurance Group."
"Scott is a neighbor and a good friend, and Ive known him for several years. A little over a year ago, my wife and I moved to our lake house and rented out our home in Dallas. I asked Scott to review our insurance policy, and Im so glad I did. It turned out that the policy I had was an ACV (Actual Cash Value) policy rather than a replacement cost policy. In other words, if something happened to the house, the insurance company would have only paid what they thought it was worthleaving me to cover the difference out of my own pocket. Thanks to Scott, I now have the right coverage and feel totally protected. I highly recommend him!"
"I was with Rising Star Insurance for three years before I was lured away by a cheaper premium. A year into that new policy, my house was damaged by hail. I filed a claim, and the company denied it. Now, Im paying out of pocket for a new roofand to make matters worse, I couldnt even get coverage again until I proved the roof was replaced. Looking back, I cant say I wasnt warned. The cheaper insurance ended up costing me far more in the long run. Lesson learned. I now have a new roof and Im back with Rising Star Insurance, where I know Ill be taken care of. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for an insurance agency they can truly rely on."
"I own and manage numerous properties in North Dallas and recently switched my insurance over to Rising Star Insurance to handle my portfolio. I was previously with a well-known agency in Richardson, but my agent was too busy with his own life to worry about mineso I fired him. Rising Star has been a breath of fresh air. They are attentive, professional, and truly care about their clients. Im very happy with their service and highly recommend them to anyone looking for an insurance agency they can count on."
