You're not expected to know this. These questions help you compare and avoid surprises.
“Can I see your General Price List?”
Federal law (FTC Funeral Rule) requires them to give you itemized pricing. You have every right to ask.
“Do you accept insurance assignment?”
This means they bill the insurance company directly. You don't pay thousands upfront and wait to be reimbursed.
“What's included vs. what's extra?”
Packages may not include everything. Ask about the casket, embalming, transportation, facility fees, and death certificate copies.
Know Your Rights
The FTC Funeral Rule protects you. Every funeral home must provide an itemized General Price List if you ask — in person or over the phone. You are never required to buy a package and can choose services individually. You also have the right to use a casket purchased elsewhere.

“We felt fortunate to have found San Jose Funeral Service for our mom's memorial. Justin has been extremely helpful from the beginning of my first initial call to planning the service itself and during and after the funeral service. Justin answered all our questions and requests with compassion and care. He did not pressure us into spending more like most places I've called. We are extremely grateful for all the help he has provided us. Thank you Justin!”

“I cannot speak highly enough about the exceptional service we received from this funeral home during my father's service. Working with Justin was a true blessing—his professionalism and kindness made a challenging time so much more manageable. From start to finish, the process was seamless; Justin was incredibly punctual, answered all our questions promptly, and ensured there were no surprises. The entire staff displayed the utmost professionalism and respect, and they were very accommodating of our Vietnamese Buddhist traditions. They had nearly everything we needed for the ceremonies, which made everything run smoothly. On top of that, their pricing was the best in San Jose, providing both quality and value. If you're looking for a funeral home that will ease your stress during such a difficult period, I highly recommend this place. Their support was invaluable and truly helped us through this trying time.”
