Frequently Asked Questions

If you have family or someone who depends on you financially, the answer is probably ‘yes.’ Life insurance helps protect your loved ones, no matter what. Whether the money is used to replace your income, cover funeral expenses, pay off debt, or provide for educational expenses, life insurance gives your family financial security when they need it most. Having the right life insurance is essential to planning for your present and future. Not only can it provide financial protection for your family after you are gone, many life insurance options offer other benefits and investment opportunities you can take advantage of while you are living.

We can help you determine the best life insurance coverage for your needs. There are several different types of life insurance products available including:

Term

Coverage for a certain period of time to help with things like paying off a mortgage or assisting with daily expenses until your children are grown. Because it covers only a set time, such as 10 or 20 years, term is the less expensive option. Get a term quote now.

Universal Life

Permanent insurance that is flexible in many ways and can fit into your financial and legacy plan. This policy accumulates cash value, has flexible payments, and can cover you for your entire life.

Whole Life

Permanent insurance that can help you leave a legacy or pay for final expenses. Whole life is the most expensive product, but it can build cash value and cover you for the rest of your life.
