What is Life insurance?
At Farmers®, we know it's difficult to imagine a time when you won't be there to help provide for your family. That's why Farmers has developed a portfolio of Life insurance products designed to help answer your Life insurance requirements, at any stage of life. Whether you're a new family, empty nester, business owner, or single parent, Farmers has a Life insurance option to suit your needs and budget.
Protecting Your Family
By preparing in advance, you'll have the peace of mind that comes from knowing you're protecting your family's financial future. And since Life insurance benefits are generally not taxable at the federal level, your loved ones can use the benefits to help take care of their living expenses in a variety of ways.
- Any needs after the time of death, such as final illness expenses, burial costs and estate taxes.
- Funds for a readjustment period, to finance a move, or to provide time for family members to find a job.
- Ongoing financial needs, such as monthly bills and expenses, daycare costs, college tuition or retirement.
Safeguarding Your Business
If you're a business owner or have business partners, it's important to prepare for the unexpected. Farmers offers several Life insurance products that are designed to help you, as a business owner, to make it possible for your heirs to help pay estate taxes and help sustain the business during a change in management, or to help provide funds in order to execute a buy-sell agreement between partners or stockholders.**

What kind of Life Insurance do I need?
In a nutshell, Life insurance comes in two flavors: Term and Permanent. Farmers® offers several options for both types of Life insurance coverage.
Term Life Insurance
Term Life insurance provides the greatest amount of coverage for the lowest initial cost so it is a good choice if your needs are temporary or your funds are limited. Since term insurance provides coverage for a specific period of time (the "term"), you will have to choose the number of years you will need coverage. The Company pays a death benefit only if you die during that term. Some term insurance policies can be renewed at the end of the term. Premium rates may increase at each renewal date. Term insurance is useful as coverage for responsibilities that will diminish or end over time, such as mortgages or car loans. Farmers offers several Term Life Insurance options to choose from.
Permanent Life Insurance
Permanent Life insurance coverage is useful when you anticipate a long-term need and value the option of income-tax-favored accumulation for future needs. The accumulated value can be borrowed against and, in some cases, withdrawn to help meet future goals. (Of course, accessing your accumulated value may reduce your death benefit). As long as you pay the necessary premiums, there is no time limit (or term) restriction on the availability of your death benefit.
