You come to a place in life that you need professional help with such things as life and health insurance. We have had Luke Hockaday as our Agent since he first started with Sams/Hockaday, and we really like the way he can call these many Insurance Companies and get quick results. He is very professional, yet he has a neat sense of humor that goes a long way. If you need the same help that we depend on, just call Luke @ 217-433-9214 and tell him Janet Jackson sent you!

you always called me back. You looked for ways to save us money on my insurance.
G.B., Customer
I retired June 30, 2016 and Jim and I each needed a supplemental medical policy and a prescription plan. Luke walked us through this process. His recommendations were "perfect" for us....he set the supplemental policy and gave us step by step instructions on getting set up with the prescription plan. We ran into some "glitches" with the prescription plan and he returned our calls immediately. He never made us feel he was "too busy." We could not have been more pleased with the ease of this transition and Luke's professionalism.
S.W., Customer
You have a good variety of products to choose from, by having access to many companies. Your people seem to know their product or they call in someone who can answer questions.
M.F., Customer
We have been exceptionally pleased to work with Sams/Hockaday and with Luke Hockaday. Luke has always been professional but also very personable and you feel like he really cares! We've only had one little issue with a bill (which was not their fault) but we took it to the office and it was taken care of for us and they happily agreed to do so. We always recommend Luke and Hockaday Insurance to everyone we know.
Patricia B., customer since 2013
Luke Hockaday provides great customer service. He is very knowledgeable about his insurance products. And he is explains everything to make it very understandable. I would definitely recommend him. Wish I would have had an insurance agent like Luke years ago.

I feel like Luke is truly concerned about getting us the best rstes.
J.H., Customer
When I call my agent, Luke Hockaday, I always get a prompt response. There is no waiting a day or two to hear back. The office is always very helpful and courteous. In this day of poor customer service it is refreshing to have an agent and staff that care about my concerns.
D.C., Customer
I was impressed with the 20 o/o coverage priemium for Medicare and the drug coverage. With my original drug coverage plan going up you saved me quite a lot other wise I wouldn't have been able to afford it or the Medicare supplement. Thank you.

Luke has always been willing to go above and beyond to help solve any issues I have had to receive reimbursements from the insurance companies.

T. G., Customer
I feel that you always take the time to do the best for us.. The agency is always courteous and friendly.
J. H., Customer
I found Luke to be very personable and always more than willing to find the information that I requested of him. If he didn't know the answer at the time he would either find it himself or ask someone in the know. From our first meeting with Luke my wife and I felt extremely comfortable with him and the way he conducted himself. We feel like they offered a great product and we couldn't be more pleased at this time.
Michael S., customer since 2014
I did not have to read and look through a bunch of different insurance policies to find a sup. policy. Luke took care of it for me.
