Helping Central Texas families plan ahead since 1963
A family-led company on a single mission: make burial insurance simple, affordable, and accessible - especially for seniors who have been told no elsewhere.
Our story
Nationwide Final Expense was founded in 1963 with one goal: give families a final expense life insurance plan they can actually rely on. Three generations of the Londen family have led the company. That family ownership keeps the focus where it belongs, on the people we serve, especially in the moments that ask the most of them.
Today we cover seniors across 49 states. More than 1,000,000 active policies are in force. In Central Texas, our licensed local agents serve families across Travis, Williamson, and Hays counties, and over-the-phone applications mean help is available wherever you live in our service area.
We hold an A+ rating from the Better Business Bureau and an A- (Excellent) rating from A.M. Best. Approved claims are paid in 24 hours, not weeks or months. Every policy includes a Personal Funeral Advisor through the Funeral Consumer Guardian Society at no extra cost.
