Estate planning and settlement at Liberty Mutual
Name beneficiaries online, fund a trust online, and report a death at 1-800-424-1592
Liberty Mutual offers 8 insurance products that play a central role in estate planning. Because policy proceeds pass directly to named beneficiaries—bypassing probate entirely—keeping designations current is one of the highest-impact steps policyholders can take.
Beneficiary designations at Liberty Mutual can be managed online, by phone, and by mail. Trust funding is also available, allowing families to name a trust as the policy beneficiary or establish an irrevocable life insurance trust (ILIT).
Liberty Mutual has documented procedures for both preparing accounts during your lifetime and handling claims when an account holder passes away.
