Life Insurance with Living Benefits
Living Benefits are kind of our thing.
Most people purchase life insurance to provide a legacy of financial security to their loved ones at the time of their death. Doesn’t it make sense for the benefits to extend and be available for you if you need them while you’re still living? Living Benefits – life insurance you don’t have to DIE to USE.
At Ward & Associates, these policies come infused with enhancements that allow you to accelerate your policy’s benefits to get much-needed money in your hands if you are to suffer a terminal, chronic, or critical illness – such as heart attack, stroke, or cancer diagnosis – or in case of a critical injury. It’s a game-changing feature that is revolutionizing the face of the life insurance industry, and we've been leading the charge for over a decade.
