Follow some of the steps below, I hope it helps 1. If you have access to their personal records, go through old bank statements or canceled checks to see if they paid any insurance companies. 2. Did they have a personal lawyer or accountant who may have known about any old policies? 3. Talk with a past employer about any group life insurance policy that may have existed. 4. Get in touch with the Medical Information Bureau. They track all requested medical records by insurance companies for the past 7 years. So, if they took out the policy during this time period, most likely the MIB will know about it. You can find more information about them online. 5. Look at the mail that continues to be delivered after the person's death. If it was a policy that was still being paid for, you'll see premium notices. 6. Look at income tax returns to see if interest dividends on any life policy were claimed. There is no time limit on claiming the benefits of any missing life insurance policy that you are the beneficiary of. It can be 25 years later and the company will still pay you the proceeds.

Not if you are smart about it. You do not have to pay his debts through his insurance policy. Inheritance may be another thing. The credit company could put a lien on the estate. The insurance policy is NOT the estate. Y-THINK-Y
Who is responsible for a leased vehicle when the person dies?
Logic would tell me the person that is in charge of the dead person's estate. On the other hand it would be a real good idea to read the contract with the lease company first, sometimes when the lease contract is made their is an insurance policy built into it. You might also want to look at the dead person's auto insurance policy to see if there is anything about what happens when the owner of the policy passes away. Does the person who passed away-did they have a life insurance policy. It might be easier to hire a estate lawyer to do this, and to ask them all your questions.
