State of California Life Insurance?

Question

My mother died in 1998 of colon cancer. She worked for the State of California. I found a pay stub that she paid for life insurance through her work. I am administrator of the estate. Is there any way to find out how to find and obtain the life insurance?

The department was called Trade and Commerce and the department no longer exist.

Answer 1

Contact the California Department of Insurance in Los Angeles.  They may be able to give you some suggestions on how to find the policy, especially if it was available to your mother as a state employee.
