Life insurance overview
Protection for your family—and value you can use while living
Life insurance is about more than a death benefit. The right policy can replace a lost pension or Social Security check for a surviving spouse, pay for extended care, and pass money to heirs income-tax-free. The confusing part is choice; that is where we come in.
Term vs. permanent
Term fits temporary needs like a mortgage. Permanent coverage lasts your lifetime, can build cash value and is the workhorse of legacy and care planning.
Living benefits
Chronic-illness and long-term care riders let you use part of the death benefit while living—so one policy protects your family and your care.
Single premium life for legacy
One deposit creates an immediately larger, income-tax-free legacy that bypasses probate. Ideal for CDs and savings earmarked for heirs.
Three kinds of coverage
Built for Different Jobs
The right policy depends on what you are protecting and for how long.

Frequently asked questions
Term or permanent—which is better?
Term is inexpensive coverage for a set period. Permanent coverage lasts your lifetime and can build cash value. Many retirees use permanent coverage for legacy and long-term care needs.
Can life insurance help pay for long-term care?
Many modern policies include accelerated or chronic-illness benefits that let you draw on the death benefit while living to pay for care.
Do I need a medical exam?
Not always. Simplified-issue policies are available with health questions only.
How much coverage do I need?
It depends on the income you want to replace, debts, final expenses and legacy goals. We run the numbers with you rather than quoting a rule of thumb.
Is the death benefit taxable?
Life insurance death benefits are generally received federal income-tax-free by beneficiaries and bypass probate.
