    You should buy life insurance from a place you trust. If on a website, look to see if they are part of the Better Business Bureau, have a TRUSTe designation, or other symbols that show they are reputable and secure.

    Look at how long the agency has been in business, if they have legitimate contact information, and are willing to introduce you to any of their staff. Testimonials can be most telling, especially if they do not sound contrived but are actual statements from actual clients.

    It is helpful to use agencies that carry multiple products and carriers so that you do not have to spend all your time shopping. When a health condition is involved, it saves much discouragement to use an agent or website that specializes in that health condition, or impaired risk life insurance as a whole.

    You should purchase life insurance from an independent agent or brokerage source that has access to the majority of life insurance companies that do business in the U.S. Objectivity in published brokerage spreadsheets can position you to make a wise determination on what life insurance company to buy based on their premium rank and policy provisions.

    Trust is the key word when purchasing life insurance. Beware of buying off of websites unless you know the company. There is a lot of personal information needed when buying life insurance, you do not want your sensitive information falling into the wrong hands. The best way to purchase life insurance is from someone you know and trust or through a recommendation. It is always a good idea to ask family, friends and coworkers who they have used in the past and what were their experiences. You will find a good independent broker I am sure.
