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.

“Dwyer & Michael’s did a great job arranging our father’s funeral. They were courteous, professional, empathetic and extremely helpful to our family during this difficult time.

— Fausto Vinces
“Dwyer and Micheal truly went above and beyond for our family, what really stood out was the funeral home director and whole staff’s compassion during this difficult time. They showed such empathy and understanding during a really tough time, and it was clear they genuinely cared about helping us honor our late grandmother. Their guidance and support made a huge difference, and we're so grateful for their kindness and professionalism. We were able to have a really nice ceremony for her without any issues. The facility's conveniently located and has plenty of parking, which was a big help logistically, especially considering we have a very large family, and my grandmother was very well known and liked in the community. What was truly remarkable, however, was their willingness to go the extra mile and assist with transporting my grandmother's remains to her home country of Ecuador, fulfilling her final wish - it's a testament to their dedication and care. We can’t thank them enough for everything they’ve done for our family.”
