The Funeral Consultation Readiness Toolkit
Walk into the funeral home consultation already protected.
Funeral homes are legally required to hand you an itemized price list the moment you ask, most people never see one because they never ask. Rebuilt as a tablet-native toolkit with tap-to-navigate sections, this gives you the exact rights you have under the FTC Funeral Rule, the pressure tactics funeral homes commonly use, and word-for-word scripts to counter them, plus four fillable forms to use live during your consultation.
What's included:
- Your Rights at a Glance and the full FTC Funeral Rule explained in plain language, plus 12 pressure tactics and the exact words to counter each one
- The Anatomy of a Funeral Bill, a line-item glossary, and 2026 national price benchmarks
- A 7-step walkthrough for the consultation itself, and how to file a complaint if something goes wrong
- Form A: GPL Comparison Worksheet, Form B: Itemized Request Form, Form C: Package Deal Cost-Auditor, and Form D: Negotiation Script Guide
- A worked example showing a family saving 19%, veterans' burial benefits, a cremation-vs-burial worksheet, and pre-need planning guidance
Format: 26-page tablet-native PDF with hyperlinked navigation and 82 genuinely fillable digital fields across the four forms, works in GoodNotes, Notability, and Adobe Acrobat.
This toolkit provides general consumer education, not legal advice. For a specific dispute, consult your local funeral licensing board or a consumer protection lawyer.
What do I actually get?
A fillable PDF workbook you can complete on screen or print. Many guides also include extra worksheets or checklists as additional files.
Is this editable, or just a PDF to read?
Most guides have fillable form fields built in, so you can type directly into the PDF. You can also print and fill them out by hand.
Does this apply to my state or country?
Our guides are written for a general U.S. audience and are educational, not legal advice. Where rules vary by state, we flag it in the guide. If you are outside the U.S., check the product description or contact us first.
Is this legal, medical, or financial advice?
No. Our guides are practical, general education. They are not a substitute for a lawyer, doctor, financial advisor, or therapist.
How do I access my files after I buy?
Your files are emailed to you immediately after checkout, and you can re-download them any time from your account order history.
