Thursday, December 06, 2001 7:20 PM Re: Collateral Source deductions of Life Insurance Attn : Ken Feinberg, Special Master Here is our unique situation. The husband a young 39 year old big breadwinning bond broker died in the WTC Sept. 11 tradgedy. He was only married for 1 year .(13 months.)No children.He left his wife a stock account and 2 real estate properties. He had $900,000 in life insurance which he named his 3 siblings and his Mom as the beneficiaries. The victim's wife received a smaller $100,000 policy. The policy's were purchased years ago.My understanding is that only the wife can make a claim under the victim's compensation fund for economic and non-economic losses. I assume the mother and siblings can not make a claim.Will the $900,000 in insurance proceeds penalize the widow's claim to the victim's compensation fund. She did not receive these insurance proceeds. They were divided among the 3 siblings and mom.This issue is dividing several families away from us as well. The assumption is that it should not penalize the widow because she did not benefit or participate in the $900,000 policy.Also, because the recieving beneficiaries are not in a position to make a claim against the fund because they are not the widow. It is hoped by all parties, that the Fund clearly spells out how this will be treated. I appreciate your review of this matter.
