About State Auto

In 1921, Robert Pein set out to create a new kind of insurance company. He was frustrated by insurance rates that were too high and claim settlements that weren’t handled fairly. State Automobile Mutual Insurance Company, he said, would be different. He pledged reasonable rates with prompt and fair claim service that remain their hallmark to this day.

We’ve grown a lot since then. Today State Auto has assets of $4.6 billion and write $2.0 billion in premium in 33 states. And they continue to rely on independent agents to market their products.

Throughout the nearly 100-year history of State Auto, they’ve developed a well-respected heritage and built a strong foundation. State Auto has always celebrated a culture of people who care. Who deliver exceptional service. Who plant themselves firmly in the communities they serve. Who genuinely understand their customers. And who develop trusted relationships.

That is State Auto Insurance.
