Hi, I'm Candice Alexander and I've been writing policies for families in California since 2013. I enjoy being a part of the community, and building relationships is one of the best parts of my job. I know that you choose your car and your home to fit your lifestyle, and need insurance to fit your budget. I also know how important it is to protect your family and what you've built with your hard work. Whether it's your car, home, business, or estate, you want to make sure you're covered, and that's what I do. I look forward to getting to know you and helping you find the solutions that meet your needs.

Hi, I'm Lisa Marquez and I have worked for Allstate since 2011. I grew up in Santa Paula and have called Ventura home for the past 20+ years. I have worked alongside Candice right here in the Oak View office for the past 11 years, so when you call, you're just as likely to reach me. I'm passionate about making sure clients actually understand what their policy covers by taking the time to educate and listen and I am just as passionate about helping those in my community that may not have a means to help themselves. We have the best team hands down when it comes to your insurance needs.

Hi, I'm Cami, a newly licensed insurance agent, Ojai native, and now Ventura resident. Growing up in Ojai has given me a deep appreciation for the people, families, and businesses that make our local community so special. I help clients navigate their personal insurance needs while continuing to expand my knowledge of commercial insurance to better support local businesses. My goal is to provide clear guidance, help clients understand their coverage options, and build lasting relationships based on trust and service. I look forward to serving the community I've always called home and being a resource for local individuals, families, and business owners.

California's minimum required automobile liability limit is $30,000 per person / $60,000 per occurrance. One bodily injury claim can easily exceed those limits
The rule of thumb is to carry an excess liability limit equal to your total assets. For example, the amount of equity in your home and the your retirement should equal your liability limit.
Being able to talk directly to your agent, who can walk you through the complexity of a claim, is priceless.

"I just recently had to deal with a Claim. Candice went above an beyond at helping me . She was very professional an understanding my needs. I would very much recommend her an the rest of the staff"
"We had a problem getting our insurance because of our roof and fire danger. Candice Alexander looked into the problem for us with a local contractor and got the problem resolved with our insurer without having to install a new roof"
"Positive. Professionalism."
Sometimes, yes — and that's by design. We write for real protection, not state minimums. The savings discount carriers offer typically come from lower coverage limits, and higher deductibles. For most families with assets, the math works out in favor of fuller coverage. We'll show you the difference side-by-side and you decide.
You'll get a call from Candice's office same day — The first call usually takes 5–10 minutes. No follow-up barrage. No transfer to a sales floor. If we're not a fit for your situation, we'll try to refer to someone who is.
No. We write home, condo, renters, life, and umbrella policies, plus commercial insurance. Most of our clients bundle multiple lines because the discounts are real and the convenience of one agent for everything is hard to beat.
An umbrella policy extends your liability coverage above and beyond your auto and home policy limits — If you have home equity, retirement savings, college funds, or rental property, you almost certainly need it. We'll tell you straight whether it makes sense for you.
13 years. Same office in Ventura County. Same phone number. Same email. We're not going anywhere — and that matters when you're building your portfolio and a relationship with your agent.
Carefully. Adding a teen significantly increases premium because the risk is real — but there are good-student discounts, online driver safety program and policy structures that can soften the impact. More importantly, we'll make sure your liability limits are appropriate before that teen ever gets in the car. That's the conversation we want to have with you.
We'll look at what you currently have, what you're paying, and where the actual gaps are. If switching makes sense, we'll talk. If it doesn't, we'll tell you that too.
Five minutes on the phone with a real agent. If we can help, we will. If we can't, we'll tell you straight.
