What is life insurance?
Life insurance is designed to ensure that the people you care about - namely your children and partner, will be taken care of financially after you pass away. With a life insurance policy, your family can receive a payment when you die, as long as your premium is active and paid for at the time of your death. That payment can be used for whatever your beneficiaries want or need, including funeral expenses, paying off outstanding debt, college tuition and more.
Types of Life Insurance
Life insurance is a legal contract between you and a life insurance company. You make regular payments (premiums). In return, the life insurance carrier will pay the death benefit to your beneficiary while your policy is in force. Your beneficiary (usually your loved one or other family member) uses the death benefit to pay the mortgage, bills, college tuition, etc. Different types of life insurance exist as noted here.
Term Life Insurance
The cheapest life insurance available
Term life insurance is a simple, affordable policy that provides financial protection for a set period—usually 10, 15, 20, 25, or 30 years. If you pass away during that term, your beneficiaries receive a tax‑free death benefit they can use to replace income, pay off debts, or protect long‑term family goals.
Whole Life Insurance
Permanent, long-term protection with cash value
Whole life insurance is a permanent policy that provides lifelong coverage, guaranteed premiums, and a tax‑free payout to your beneficiaries. Unlike term insurance, whole life builds cash value—a savings component that grows at a guaranteed rate and can be accessed for emergencies, retirement income, or long‑term financial planning. It’s designed for people who want stable, predictable protection, long‑term wealth building, and coverage that never expires as long as premiums are paid.
Universal LIfe
A customizable, permanent policy
Universal life insurance is a flexible type of permanent coverage that combines lifelong protection with a cash value account that grows tax‑deferred. Unlike whole life, universal life lets you adjust your premiums and death benefit over time, giving you more control as your financial needs change. The cash value earns interest based on market rates or policy design, and you can use it to lower premiums, build long‑term savings, or access funds when needed. It’s ideal for people who want lifetime coverage with customizable costs and growth potential.
Guaranteed Issue Life Insurance
Limited underwriting (or none at all) with guaranteed approval
Guaranteed issue life insurance is a type of permanent life insurance that approves you without medical exams, health questions, or underwriting requirements. As long as you meet the age criteria, you’re accepted—making it a strong option for people with serious health conditions or those who have been declined for traditional coverage. These policies provide a tax‑free death benefit and typically include a graded benefit period, meaning full coverage begins after an initial waiting period. Guaranteed issue life insurance is designed to help families cover final expenses, medical bills, and end‑of‑life costs with certainty, simplicity, and guaranteed approval.
Note: if you work over 20 hours per week in gainful employment, and meet age requirements, we offer guaranteed issue term life starting at $100,000. We have many guaranteed issue life insurance options that go beyond what the typical broker offers. If this is your situation, contact us. I am happy to go over your options.
Burial Insurance
A simple plan to pay your funeral expenses
Burial insurance, also called final expense insurance, is a small permanent life insurance policy designed to cover end‑of‑life costs such as funerals, cremation, medical bills, and other final expenses. It offers guaranteed lifelong coverage, fixed premiums, and a tax‑free payout to your beneficiaries. Because these policies use simplified underwriting—and often accept applicants with health issues—they’re a practical, affordable solution for seniors and anyone who wants to protect their family from unexpected financial burdens.
High Risk Options
Life insurance options no matter your situation
High‑risk life insurance options are specialized policies designed for people who have medical conditions, hazardous occupations, risky lifestyles, or past declines that make traditional coverage difficult to obtain. These options include simplified issue, guaranteed issue, table‑rated policies, and specialized high‑risk underwriting programs that evaluate applicants more flexibly than standard carriers. Depending on your health and risk profile, insurers may offer coverage with adjusted premiums, modified benefits, or alternative underwriting paths to ensure you can still secure reliable, tax‑free protection for your family or business. High‑risk life insurance exists to provide realistic, attainable coverage when traditional insurers say no.
