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.

“Every single person we interacted with from Lord and Stephens was so kind and helpful to my mom and I throughout this whole process. They were so accommodating and respectful of our needs and very patient with us. They really did an amazing job of walking us through the whole process and providing so much helpful information. Thank you so much for all your help and doing such a great job helping us get through a tough time.”
— MY Cha
“Caring, compassionate and concerned are the words that come to mind when thinking of my recent experience attending a viewing at Lord & Stephens in Watkinsville. The funeral directors were extremely caring for the family and friends during this time of tremendous loss. The staff offered a lot of compassion during the viewing and visitation including family and friends. The entire funeral home including visitation room was very open and spacious along with having comfortable places to sit and talk about the passing. It was clear by the way in which the viewing and time with the family was approached, the entire staff was genuinely concerned about everyone who attended. I was extremely impressed with the way they had things organized from the parking when you arrived and the way in which you went through the line to view and speak with the family.”
