Choosing a life insurance company often starts with a referral from your friends, family or other advisors to a life insurance professional. It is usually best to utilize the services of a professional who can help make sense of the many choices available. Most are able to work with more than one life insurance company and can provide information about each one. As you narrow down the options, you can and should go online and research insurance companies on your own and ask questions about them. The ratings services such as AM Best are also a good place to go.
