What is the name of your state? South Carolina
I am the owner and beneficiary of a life insurance policy on my boyfriend. We were not married. The policy was taken out in 2002. It is over three years old. Because we had a lot of business dealings, which would amount to a lot of debt, we took insurance policies out on each other, and he was the beneficiary of mine and I was the beneficiary of his. We arranged for the payments to be drafted from my checking account, but shared the cost of both policies. At the time of his death, he was reunited with his wife, whom he was never actually divorced from during our relationship. Will I be able to collect the death benefit. I have always held the policy in my pocession, am I obligated to let his wife know about the policy and will she be able to challenge me as the beneficiary. If this was the only policy, I would feel obligated to give it up, but he was employed and had a 401k and other life insurance on the job.
Thanks
