Local Allstate Agent: Meet Steve Cates
"
I’m an Allstate agent for the same reason why I spent 23 years as a police officer: It’s rewarding to be there for people when something unexpected happens to them.
I became an Allstate agent in Council Bluffs in 2007. You might say my work as an Allstate agent is all in the family: My wife of 38 years, Carolyn, works with me, our daughter Amy is our office manager and my daughter Becky’s best friend is part of our team, too. I like to say our agency is honest, caring and awesome.
Council Bluffs, home to the Union Pacific Railroad Museum, has transformed from a railroad town to a modern city, and I’m proud that it is my hometown. My wife and I raised our daughters here. We now have one busy granddaughter, Jayden, plus a houseful of fur babies – our dogs, Lucy, Alex and Zoey, and our cats, Skitty, George and Lily.
Before becoming an Allstate agent, I worked for a U.S. congressman and devoted 23 years to law enforcement until becoming injured on duty. I especially enjoy doing insurance reviews for customers and assisting customers as they make decisions that help protect what matters most: their family, home, car and boat.
When I’m not working, I enjoy collecting sports memorabilia. My office is a shrine to the Nebraska Cornhuskers and the Kansas City Royals. In fact, I’ve visited Kansas City every year for a Royals game since 1974. Before I die, I want to attend a game in every Major League stadium. It would be even better if I could drive my dream car, a 1969 Chevelle SS, to the games.
We specialize in auto, home and renters insurance as well as life insurance and retirement. Find us just off Interstate 80 at South 24th Street.
