Then our call is short. We'll show you what your current policy pays for and what it doesn't, ask what you want covered, and build your quote around that.

Nobody should find out at claim time that their policy doesn't pay for something they thought it did. Seeing your current policy helps us make sure that doesn't happen to you.

Coverage

The main types of life insurance

Most families start with term. Permanent coverage fits specific goals.

Term life

Coverage for a set number of years, often 10, 20 or 30. The lowest cost per dollar of coverage.

Whole life

Permanent coverage with a guaranteed premium and cash value that grows over time.

Universal life

Permanent coverage with more flexible premiums. Some versions guarantee the death benefit to a set age.

Final expense

Smaller permanent policies meant to cover funeral and end-of-life costs.

What we teach every client

Three things people get wrong about life insurance

1

Coverage through work usually ends with the job

Group life is a nice benefit, and it's often one or two times salary. If you leave or lose the job, the coverage typically goes with it.

2

The amount matters more than the type

A family with a large mortgage and young kids may need 15 times income or more. Start with the number, then decide on term or permanent.

3

Health changes the price

Rates are set by age and health when you apply. Buying sooner is usually cheaper than buying later.

Questions

Common questions

How much life insurance do I need?

Add years of income, the mortgage, other debts, college and final expenses, then subtract what you already own. Our calculator does the math.

Does a stay-at-home parent need coverage?

Yes. Replacing childcare, driving and running the house costs real money if that parent dies.

Is term or whole life better?

They do different jobs. Term covers a need for a set period at the lowest cost. Whole life is permanent and builds cash value at a higher premium.
