You are not alone in
the challenges you face as an independent
contractor State Farm agent. From underwriting
restrictions to financial products, from finding good
staff to just finding the time, our members are facing
the same challenges. In some cases, we’ve found answers
that can help you. In others, we are fighting to make
its members’ agency opportunity everything it was
promised to be.
No matter what the
challenge, when you join NASFA, you don't have
to face it alone.
California Judge Rules State Farm Agencies Are Not
Franchises
On
April 14, 2008, the Superior Court of California, San
Joaquin County issued its ruling on the pending Motions
for Summary Judgment in the Vice v. State Farm
lawsuit. The decision was not favorable to NASFA.
FINRA Fines, Suspends 16 State Farm Representatives

Financial Industry Regulatory Authority fined and
suspended 16 current and former registered
representatives of State Farm VP Management Corp. of
Bloomington, IL, for misconduct involving FINRA's
Continuing Education requirements for registered
representatives. The individual representatives received
fines ranging from $5,000 to $10,000 and suspensions

NASFA
has resolved to communicate more efficiently in 2008.
That means using more e-mail, so we're updating our
database with as many members' e-mail addresses as
possible. Please provide a personal e-mail
address, not a statefarm.com address.
Part of the Plan
Does State Farm have
a plan to force agents on old contracts to
retire? Those who remember what happened with
auto insurance in New
Jersey seem to think
so. The current writing restrictions in Florida
seem eerily familiar.
NASFA remains the only
association exclusively focused on issues faced by
independent contractor State Farm agents. If you're
looking for answers, you're not
alone. You'll find help as in NASFA membership
as you share the experience of thousands of your peers.
NASFA is appealing the decision of Vice v.
State Farm in California to determine
whether the independent contractor agencies
owned by State Farm agents should
be subject to California franchise laws.
If successful, the suit could have far-reaching,
positive effects for agents.
