Great question! There are many, many companies that offer life insurance policies. What you want to look for is a company that is well rated, (AM Best, Standard & Poors for example are companies that rate insurance companies on their financial stability), has been around a while, and is well respected. I recommend that you find a local independent agent ( one who is not tied to a specific brand, and so can write for several companies) who can help you find the company that offers the product that is the best fit for you. There are several kinds of policies, and uses for them, so having someone that you can trust to walk you through the process is a huge help. If you would like to contact me, I'd be happy to help you with some more specific to your needs information. I'd be glad to help. Thanks for asking!
Life insurance is available for sale in a great variety of place including online, through "captive" agents and independent life insurance brokers.
The challenge is that life insurance can be deceptively easy to compare when looking only at initial premium rates. You are best served by someone who takes the time to understand you and what your insurance needs are. Working with a local independent agent /broker to help you find the right policy at the right price is your best bet.

If you would like to work with a local life insurance broker, you could start with a Google search.

My recommendation is to buy a life insurance policy from someone that you trust. To find that person ask your colleagues, friends and neighbors who they trust. When talking with that agent make sure that they record the information that you provide and then accurately pass that to the company. When the policy arrives make sure that it is exactly what you ordered. The right policy with the right limits in force when you die is the best life insurance policy that you could possibly own.

Purchase Life Insurance from the agent or agency you feel has your best interest in mind. With the vast wealth of information available online it should be easy for the average consumer to go into a life insurance transaction with a good understanding of what the arena looks like. If you aren't comfortable then the best advice is to ask your trusted family and friends whom they use or have used in the past.
