Q: Life Insurance is asking for prescription list, autopsy and toxicology reports. How do I obtain these if Im not related?
BF died of drug intoxication. Insurance is asking for prescription list, autopsy and toxicology. We were not married how do I obtain these? I doubt his family will help me obtain one.
A:
Obtain some sort of official demand from the life insurance company and give a copy to the sources of the documents you need. This may work.
Attorneys can normally obtain these items with a letter saying they need it for their client to obtain insurance.
If neither of these work, then you may have to file a lawsuit against the life insurance company, and then you can get a court order if they refuse to give you the documents.
