Allstate Insurance Agent

James O'Neal, Augusta, GA

My whole life has been spent in Georgia. I grew up in Augusta and moved to Atlanta in 1989 to study at Morehouse College. In 2008, I returned to work as a sales professional at my father’s agency. When I got back, it felt like nothing had changed and I was able to rekindle many former friendships.

This community is my home, and I try to stay involved as much as I can. I support Leadership Augusta, Project Impact, The Center for Arts & Heritage of North Augusta, Historic Augusta Inc., Historic North Augusta and Omega Psi Phi Fraternity, Inc. For the last 11 years, my agency has helped host the Father-Daughter Gala to support local nonprofits. I’m a member of the Augusta Metro Chamber of Commerce, serve on the City of Augusta Planning Commissioners Board and served on the Leadership Augusta Board of Directors.

Working with Dad in his agency inspired me to become an agent. I feel like it’s in our blood to assist people in our community while helping them learn how to protect their loved ones. After working as an Allstate representative for 37 years, Dad retired in 2014. I bought his agency with the goal of carrying on his legacy of providing world-class customer service to the Augusta area. In 2018, I opened my second office in Grovetown.

I have a caring and knowledgeable team that is passionate about helping local families learn to prepare for the unexpected. We take the time to get to know customers so we can help them choose customized coverage to match their individual needs. Please stop by or give us a call – we look forward to meeting you!
