- What's included in the price?
- It depends on the provider and the option you choose. Ask for an itemized price list — under the FTC Funeral Rule, every funeral provider must give you one in writing, and you pay only for the goods and services you select.
- How do I compare providers in Lake Forest?

- How do I compare funeral homes in Lake Forest fairly?
- Ask each home for its General Price List — the FTC Funeral Rule requires them to give you one, and to quote prices by phone. Compare the basic services fee and the specific items you want, since that's where prices vary most.
- Can a funeral home require me to buy a casket from them?
- No. Under the FTC Funeral Rule, a funeral home must accept a casket or urn you bought elsewhere and cannot charge a handling fee for it.
