What is the name of your state? Maine
My mother took out an annuity life insurance policy on me in 1980 for $250,000, she was the soul benficiary and it was paid off in 1990. I have not spoken with her since 1998 at which time I asked her to make my son the beneficiary. She told me she had borrowed all the money that was available from it and she would not change beneficiary. She likes to tell people that it was the best money she ever spent to take out that policy on me. I called Met Life (that is who it is through) and they refused to talk to me as they said I was not the owner of the policy. I obviously do not want her to benefit if something happened to me and leave my son with nothing. We have been estranged 95% of the time since I first moved out when I was 16 and she has no insurable interest in me. Is there anyway I can force her to cash the policy in? What are my options?What is the name of your state?
