Local Allstate Agent: Meet Charlene Briley

Bonnie Soileau, licensed agent & manager ; Kenny Pitre, life specialist ; Shonda Vidrine, licensed agent

I have been an Allstate agent since 2016, and I have lived in the Ville Platte area my entire life. I love the friendliness and small town feel here. I like to take walks in Chicot State Park and soak in the beauty of nature. My two sons are also agents, and my oldest, Steven, actually works with me in this agency, which my late husband, Miles, opened in 2005. I have two dogs, Floyd and Max, who keep me entertained at home.

Helping to broadcast their events on KVPI radio, I am a sponsor of the Smoked Meat Festival and Ville Platte Dixie Youth Little League. Because I love to give back, I support St. Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital, Shriners Hospital for Children and the Ville Platte Police Department’s drug abuse resistance education program. On the weekends, I enjoy cooking, listening to live music, spending time with my granddaughter and going to spin class.

I became an agent to continue the business that my husband loved and took pride in. Since his passing was very sudden, I understand the importance of life insurance and getting financially ready for the future. I especially enjoy helping people to understand coverages so they can choose what is fitting for their family’s specific needs. My agency is located at the intersection of LaSalle and Chataignier Streets. Come visit us today.

Products we offer:

Auto Insurance in Ville Platte
Close Auto insurance modal
Helps protect you and your vehicle if you’re involved in a car accident. At a minimum, you’ll likely need bodily injury liability and property damage liability to meet state auto insurance coverage requirements and help protect your finances if you cause an accident that injures another driver or damages their property.

We also offer uninsured motorist coverage to help with your expenses if you’re hit by a driver without insurance. If you’re looking for coverage to help protect your vehicle, you might want to consider collision coverage and comprehensive coverage, which help pay repair costs if your car is damaged in a covered loss. And, optional coverages, like new car replacement coverage or loan/lease gap coverage help protect your investment in a brand-new car.

I can help you choose a combination of coverages that fulfill state requirements and meet your needs. Give me a call to get a car insurance quote today!

Allstate Business Insurance protects your business in ways other insurance might not.

In addition to these basic coverages, the Allstate Business Owners Policy can be customized with additional protection to help cover more aspects of your business.

I can help you tailor a policy to fit your small business’s needs. As a small business owner myself, I understand how important it is to protect what you’ve worked so hard to build.
