My neighbor's mother, who is 73, just posed an interesting situation. Her husband died in 1974. Before he died he told her that if something happened to her their house, in Walnut Creek, California, would be paid for because he was paying extra every month with the mortgage payment. She assumed he meant mortgage insurance.
When the husband died his brother, who was acting as executor, called the mortgage company, Great Western, and was told there was no such insurance. A few years later the woman found the policy and called but was told the statue of limitations has passed and they were not required to pay the policy.
My question is - how do I (as a retired person with time on my hands) help her try and get this resolved.

Wrtite tot the State insurance Department or contact an insurance lawyer -- it sounds like bad faith to me --- and the statute may not have run out!
