Hello all.
This may not be the right sub-forum for this question, so I apologize in advance.
A friend of mine recently discovered that her husband has a $500,000 life insurance policy on her that she never knew about. The reason she never knew is because this man has been extremely abusive in the past and had forced her to sign papers without allowing her to know what she was signing. Any attempt on her part to know what she was signing was met with physical abuse.
The only reason she now knows about this policy is because during the process of domestic violence counselling that he has been ordered to undergo, he was required to divulge any and all insurance policies, from what I have been told.
My question comes down essentially to this. Did this man break any laws or commit insurance fraud by coercing his wife to put her signature on a life insurance policy that she was never aware was being taken out on her?
By the way, he has confessed to his domestic violence counsellers and the officers assigned to his case that he did indeed force her to sign the policy without telling her what it was.
Thank you all in advance for your time reading this. Cheers
