Hello your father took his own life two days ago you are very concerned about your mom losing the house He had life insurance with Nationwide Is the suicide clause in all insurance policies?

Hi, The suicide clause is not in all Life Insurance policies. Some policies do not have any suicide clause, others exclude suicide for the first few years of the policy and some totally exclude it. You need to check your policy wording and speak to Nationwide themselves who will be able to properly advise you and tell you if a claim can be made or not. There is further information about this type of clause on our website, I'll add the link to the related links.
