Questions to Ask When You Call
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.

What Families Say
“When my mother passed away, I was greeted by Jermaine Odom. He was very professional. He made sure my family had everything they needed and made sure making the arrangements for my mother was easy and painless as possible. It was easy to reach him when necessary no matter what time of day or night, I recommend lamorinda funeral and cremation services to any family in need.”
— Ebony Creation
“I just want to say thank you to Lamorinda for taking good care of my grandmother in her journey home. The staff was very professional and understanding of the needs of my family during this tough time. I recommend Lamorinda to any family in need.”
— Noah Robinson
“My grandmother passed away on May 3rd in hospice and was taken to this funeral home to be cremated. My mother and I called and checked in every few days to make sure everything was alright and they said it was. Then we get a call one afternoon saying she had to have paper work turned in by the end of that day or she would be considered abandoned. We got no warning prior to this and had to scramble to figure out how we were going to do this. We managed to get it done thankfully. Then about a week later we're told she ready for pick up or delivery. We don't live in the area so we chose delivery. Weeks go by and we're calling multiple times asking where her cremains are. We got the runaround every time we called and texted. We had to have our lawyer call and ask where she was. Finally I get an email with a tracking number but no explanation or apology whatsoever. We didn't receive her cremains until AUGUST! It was an all around unprofessional experience in a very difficult time in our lives and I would suggest anyone avoid this place if possible.”
