A life insurance policy will pay a death benefit when the insured pass away. But you need to have knowledge of what company issued the policy in order contact them to make a death claim. Not having this information can be very frustrating as you plan an unexpected expensive event such as a funeral. Having that life insurance policy information can make the experience of submitting a death claim go much more smoothly.
