Life Insurance
Life insurance replaces the income, debt payments, and care obligations that would land on someone else if you died. The hard part isn't picking a policy — it's deciding how much coverage, for how long, and what kind. Term, whole, and universal life serve different goals and price brackets, and most people overestimate how complicated the choice has to be.
Who it’s for
Anyone with dependents, a mortgage, a business partner, co-signed debt, or a household that depends on their income.
What it covers
The protection lines that make up the policy.
Term Life
Pure death benefit for a set period — usually 10, 20, or 30 years. The lowest cost per dollar of coverage and the right starting point for most working-age households.
Whole Life
Permanent coverage with a guaranteed cash-value component that grows over time. More expensive than term but predictable, with uses in estate planning and forced savings.
Universal Life
Flexible permanent coverage that lets you adjust premiums and death benefit as your situation changes. Useful when income is variable or coverage needs may grow.
Riders
Waiver of premium, accelerated death benefit (terminal-illness payout), child rider, return of premium — small add-ons that meaningfully change what a policy can do. Often misunderstood and worth a conversation.
Common questions
The conversations our agents have every day.
- How much coverage do I actually need?
- A common starting point is 10× annual income, but that's a rule of thumb, not an answer. The real number comes from totaling outstanding debt, future obligations (kids' education, a spouse's retirement gap), and final expenses — and subtracting what you already have set aside.
- Do I need a medical exam?
- Not always. Simplified-issue and guaranteed-issue policies skip the exam, usually at higher cost or with lower face amounts. For larger policies, a paramedical exam is standard and usually quick.
- Can I keep coverage after a term policy ends?
- Many term policies are convertible to permanent coverage without re-underwriting before a stated age. Worth confirming the conversion window before you buy.
Nationwide coverage
Available in all 50 states.
Insurance rules — required minimums, no-fault status, workers' comp thresholds — vary state-by-state. The licensed agents in our network are matched to your state so the quote and the advice both follow the rules where you actually live.
We connect you with an agent who can run the numbers honestly — including the option that says you already have enough coverage. Life insurance shouldn't be sold; it should be sized.
