State of Virginia. My brother's wife died recently from terminal cancer(level four) which she had known about for over one year and kept it from her husband until it could no longer be hidden. Following her death, my brother(62 yrs) finds that she had stopped making paymens on his term life insurance a couple of years ago; which was to be his retirment. She also cancelled her life insurance policy even after she knew of the cancer. Since my brother is on the road most of the time as a truck driver, his wife took care of paying all the bills, or so he thought. Turns out she had not been paying any bills ( with few exceptions) and now he is facing back taxes, etc. but most crushing is that he has no retirement income which he had paid into for 15 plus years.
The question is: is there any presedent that would suggest that he could approach the insurance company on grounds that his wife was metally unstable or irrational and somehow get his life insusrance policy reinstated even if he had to make up the past due payments??What is the name of your state?
