Can Life Insurance Companies Refuse To Pay?
- 0 POINTSContact Meview profileDavid RacichPROFountain Hills, ArizonaIt is conceivable that a life insurance policy was issued under false pretense that may be construed as fraud. Any misstatements, misrepresentations or material omissions can constitute fraud and create the basis for claim denial. In addition, claims will be denied if suicide occurs in the first two years of the contestibility period.Answered on July 21, 2013+01 0+1 this answerflag this answerview more answers by David Racich

In those cases, they would most likely return the premiums paid.Answered on July 29, 2013flag this answer
