Welcome to John Bell’s State Farm Insurance Agency!

We’re proud to serve the great people of Central Virginia, including Henrico County, Richmond, Lakeside, Glen Allen, Hanover, Tuckahoe, Innsbrook, Goochland, and Ashland, with personalized coverage for individuals, families, and businesses. Our goal is simple: to help protect what can go wrong so you can focus on what can go right.

Insurance has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I started working in a State Farm agency at just 17 years old, interning with my mother-in-law, who has been a successful agent in Hanover for over 40 years. With 17 years of industry experience, multiple college degrees in finance and risk management, and being ranked as a top 100 new agent in the country in my first year, I’ve built my career on understanding what matters most to the people we serve. I’m a graduate of Hanover High School, where I played football, and I’ve stayed connected to our community by coaching JV basketball at Atlee High School and serving on the Parents' Committee at my son’s preschool, where our agency also helps sponsor local events.

Today, I’m proud to lead a team of tenured, loyal professionals who are just as passionate about helping our customers as I am. We’re known for being friendly, approachable, and committed to making insurance services simple and easy to understand. Whether you’re looking into Auto Insurance to stay protected on the road, Homeowners Insurance to safeguard your home, or Life Insurance to support your family’s future, we’ll walk you through your options and create a customized plan that fits your needs.

We also work with small businesses throughout Central Virginia, offering options like Business Insurance, Commercial Auto Insurance, and General Liability Insurance. As a local small business owner myself, I understand how important it is to have dependable coverage that reflects how your business actually operates. We take the time to get to know you so your protection isn’t one-size-fits-all.

Our office is conveniently located on Brook Road, about one mile north of the intersection with Parham Road and one mile south of I-295, making it easy to stop by and connect in person. We’re also happy to assist over the phone or by email, and we can offer support in both English and Spanish to better serve our community.

Outside of the office, I enjoy spending time with my family, including my two young boys, playing golf, and following sports. I’ve been with my wife since high school, and family continues to be a big part of why I care so much about helping others protect what matters most.

State Farm has been a trusted name in Auto Insurance for over 100 years, and as a mutual company, the focus is always on serving customers. My team and I are here to make sure you feel confident in your coverage every step of the way. We sincerely hope to earn your business — contact our Glen Allen office today to get started with an insurance quote.
