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.

“Honestly the worst funeral home in Los Angeles, I urge you not to bring your loved ones here. I am seventeen and this funeral made my fathers passing way worse than it already was. To start when they received my father they would continuously tell us that my dad wasn’t in the right mind when he passed. Something you never tell a person that is grieving and hurt. We did a wake in their funeral home and honestly it was fine. There was a stench coming from my father and that smell will stick with me forever. They also did his makeup horribly and he looked orange and patchy. All they want is money, after we signed the contract they told us we had to pay $400 more because the funeral home in Mexico requested it. Something that failed to be stated the contract. Upon my dads arrival to mexico they made us pay $150 to release my dad from the airport because they made a error on paperwork. My father was being sent to Mexico for the burial and the amount of unprofessionalism that came from Ronaldo and his wife was astonishing. They wouldn’t give us updates and didn’t know how long it’d be until my dad got sent out. We called and they told us one day and would continuously switch it up. They also told us my father would arrive in good condition so our family could say their goodbyes. Not true, upon my dads arrival the funeral home from mexico told us that Gorman Funeral Home failed to care for my dad properly, that he had a horrible stench and they wouldn’t recommend an open casket. Honestly overall this funeral home made my grieving process long and dreadful. Please listen to all of the reviews on here because I wish I would have. Take your loved ones anywhere else.”

“This was never my first choice. Against my reservations, my family urged me to go with them because they had used them in the past and their experience was pleasant and most importantly, affordable. They’re now wishing they listened to me. Please stay away. I don’t know how this place is still in business. They have made an already difficult and distressing situation even more stressful. They are unorganized and terrible at communication. I am still in the midst of trying to send a family member to be buried in her home country. It’s been 2 months and they have chosen to go radio silent. They can’t even give me the courtesy to tell me “I have no update”. This place deserves to be shut down. Se están aprovechando de la gente y no les da vergüenza.”
— Marcy Merino
“Disgusting place don’t ever let your loved one be handled by these horrible people. The coordinator was absolutely unprofessional and money hungry. it’s really heartbreaking that I even have to make a review like this a day after I had to bury my loved one, but I feel like this has to be done so other people will not make the same mistake”
