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.

“They HAVE NO MERCY. I wouldn’t bring my beloved one to them. In less then 5min with the deseed one that will be sent out of country, the director called over the phone and said the home country consulate asked us to leave or otherwise they’ll call the police. No way the home country consulate would do that when in fact they arranged for the visit. We went out only because we didn’t want to cause problems in respect of our dead person. But we keep what he did to our god, karma will be back to him in life and will face the consequences of what he did in the day of judgement. Rest in peace our beloved one.”

“I want to personally thank Mrs.D. Williams and her staff when I say they made my mother’s home going service so special words can’t explain. I’m forever grateful for making the experience less painful than it already was. They really did an amazing job with her and I’m truly blessed they were able to handle her service, once again thank you from the bottom of my heart.”

“Listen, if I could give D Williams ten stars I would. Mrs. D is absolutely amazing at what she does. She is definitely not in this business for the money. She is professional and very knowledgeable and I like that. My father looked really good. Her staff was very professional as well. Thank you so much for taking good care of us during this difficult time. We definitely appreciate it.”
