Life insurance to protect what matters most

Coverage options

We offer multiple policy types to meet specific goals and budgets:

• Term life insurance: Cost-effective coverage for a fixed period to protect income, mortgage obligations, or education expenses.
• Whole life insurance: Permanent coverage with guaranteed death benefit and built-in cash value growth.
• Final expense insurance: Smaller, simpler policies intended to cover funeral and end-of-life costs.
• Universal life: Flexible premium schedules and adjustable death benefit options.

How we help you decide

We begin with a clear calculation of obligations: mortgage balance, outstanding debts, education costs, and household expenses. From there we compare policy features, carrier ratings, and premium projections so you can select a plan with confidence.

Application and underwriting

Our team prepares your application, communicates with carriers, and follows up during underwriting. If medical exams are required, we explain the process, help schedule appointments, and coordinate paperwork to avoid common delays.

Claims support and beneficiaries

We assist beneficiaries through the claims filing process and coordinate with carriers to help achieve timely resolution. We recommend reviewing beneficiary designations after major life events—marriage, divorce, birth, or death—to keep your plan current and effective.

What affects cost

Several factors influence premiums:

• Age at application — younger applicants generally pay lower rates.
• Health and medical history — insurers review medical exams, records, and lifestyle factors.
• Policy type and term length — permanent policies typically cost more than term coverage.
• Coverage amount — higher death benefits increase the premium.
• Occupation and hobbies — certain jobs or risky activities can affect underwriting.

Optional riders and add-ons

Riders can provide extra protection or flexibility. Common options include:

• Accelerated death benefit: Access a portion of the death benefit if diagnosed with a qualifying terminal illness.
• Waiver of premium: Keeps a policy in force if you become totally disabled and cannot work.
• Child rider: Affordable coverage for minor children that can often be converted later.

Common questions

How much coverage do I need?

Start by listing debts, future obligations, and the income replacement needed to support dependents. We offer scenario examples that show cost comparisons and how different coverage levels affect monthly premium estimates.

Is there a waiting period for benefits?

Most policies pay benefits immediately after approval of a valid claim. Some simplified-issue policies include a graded benefit period for certain causes of death during the first two years—this will be clearly disclosed in the policy paperwork.

Can I review existing policies?

Yes. We will review any current policies you have, explain terms, identify coverage gaps, and offer options to consolidate or replace policies when appropriate.

Real-world scenarios

Young family: A 35-year-old with two dependents and a mortgage may prioritize a 20- or 30-year term policy sized to replace income and cover mortgage payoff.

Small business owner: Business owners often combine personal life coverage with buy-sell agreements or key-person policies to protect operations and continuity.

Preparing for final expenses: Older applicants looking to ease the burden on loved ones may choose final expense policies with simplified underwriting.
