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.

“All I was trying to do was to get my things in order for my love ones, before I pass. I paid for everything about 15 to 20 years ago. I had no luck, even contacting an owner for help - Mr. Guerra. It is very sad that after there is no more money to be made there is no more care.”

“I can’t say enough good things about Guerra Gutierrez Mortuary. Thanks to Becky’s and Joel’s expertise and guidance we had the most beautiful services for our family member. They helped us arrange every single thing that was needed, which helped us a ton while we grieved. If they had not have been so helpful, we would not have been able to get through it. I am so grateful for their help during such difficult time.”
— Angie Alcala
“They handled both of my parents funerals in October 2015 they passed within 2 weeks of each other and they did an amazing job and even helped us out with cutting cost because they passed so close to each other that the cost would have just wiped us out. Its a peaceful cozy chapel they are very helpful and provided really friendly caring service. I would recommend this place to anyone looking for caring people to handle a loved ones passing.”
