The Bad

One drawback – I’ve seen easier step-by-step application processes. Part of the reason is likely the wealth of products offered. They need to find out of you need term life insurance, annuities, whole life, etc. This is for the main website, by the way. The landing pages are more focused on what consumers came there for.

What to Expect

  • An exceptional insurance company who has stood the test of time.
  • All manner of life insurance products – term, whole, annuities, etc.
  • Rock solid website with a wealth of information.
  • Policies in almost any amount.
  • A comprehensive application process focused on your needs.
