LIFE INSURANCE
For the people who count on you.
The house payment. The everyday bills. The future you want your family to have. Life insurance can help your loved ones keep moving forward financially if you die. Commonwealth Legacy Group helps you explore coverage around the people, responsibilities, and budget that matter to you.

01 / BEGIN WITH WHAT MATTERS
What would you want taken care of?
Start with the need that sounds most like your life. Each one opens the part of the conversation that matters most to you.
02 / THE HOME AND THE EVERYDAY
Help life keep feeling like home.
The home and the habits inside it are often what a family most wants to hold on to. Coverage can give your loved ones room to keep up with the mortgage—or reduce the balance—when your income is no longer there.
Everyday income
Groceries, childcare, utilities, and the everyday costs your household still needs to meet. Mortgage protection life insurance is coverage that can help your family stay current on the mortgage if you die. It addresses a death-related coverage need and is separate from the CLG Mortgage Freedom Strategy, which is an advanced planning approach.
What monthly bills would still need to be paid?
And what coverage do you already have? Those two questions usually shape the amount and the length of protection worth considering.
03 / FINAL EXPENSES AND FAMILY CONTINUITY
Leave them room to move forward.
Final expenses can arrive before a family has had time to plan for them. A plan already in place can help your loved ones handle funeral costs and other immediate expenses without turning every decision into an urgent financial one.
Debts and obligations
Shared loans and other obligations can put pressure on the people or the assets you leave behind. Naming them now makes it easier to decide how much protection is enough.
What you leave behind
Coverage for family priorities and estate-related expenses can create room to plan without making every decision an urgent financial one. Life & Legacy connects those family and estate intentions with your life insurance.
04 / TWO PLACES TO START
Start with the need. Then choose the coverage.
Most households begin with one of these two ideas. Neither is better on its own—what matters is how long you need the coverage and what you want it to do.
Term life
Coverage for a set period, often considered around years with a mortgage, dependent children, or income others rely on.
Term life insurance →Permanent life
Coverage designed for long-term needs. Whole life and universal life have different structures; some policies also build cash value. Keeping coverage in force depends on the policy and its funding requirements.
Whole life insurance →Some policies build cash value over time. Where that fits, indexed universal life is worth understanding on its own: Indexed universal life →

06 / USEFUL QUESTIONS
A few useful questions.
How much life insurance might my family need?
Start with the responsibilities you want to support: household income, a mortgage, education, care, and final expenses. Then consider the savings, benefits, and coverage already available. We help organize those pieces around your family's goals and timeline.
Can life insurance help with funeral expenses?
Yes. A life insurance death benefit can give your family money to help with funeral costs and other final expenses. It is paid to the people you name as beneficiaries. See final expense coverage ↗
How is mortgage protection different from homeowners insurance or PMI?
Homeowners insurance and private mortgage insurance protect the lender or the property. Mortgage protection is a life insurance death benefit that can help your family keep up with the mortgage if you die. It is also different from the CLG Mortgage Freedom Strategy, which is an advanced planning approach. See mortgage protection coverage ↗
Is coverage through my employer enough?
It can be a useful starting point, but it often ends when the job does and may not cover everything your family would need. Comparing it with your responsibilities helps you see whether there is a gap worth addressing.
What is the difference between term and permanent life insurance?
Term life covers a set period, such as years with a mortgage or dependent children. Permanent life insurance is designed for longer-term needs; whole life and universal life have different structures, and keeping coverage in force depends on the policy and its funding requirements.

Can I review coverage I already own?
Yes. Bring any policies you already have and we can look at their purpose, amount, and beneficiaries together. An existing plan is a useful starting point. Review your existing coverage ↗
