KNOW YOUR RIGHTS IN ILLINOIS

What Illinoisrequires — and what it doesn't

Licensing
Funeral establishments, directors, and embalmers are licensed by the State Board of Embalmers & Funeral Directors — check any license free with the state board. Attorneys and insurance producers are public records too; every verified listing links its record.
Your right to prices
Federal law (the FTC Funeral Rule) entitles you to a General Price List at any funeral home — in person or by phone. Cemeteries and memorial parks are NOT covered, so published pricing there is voluntary.
If money is tight
Counties may assist with indigent burial or cremation, and direct cremation is legal statewide without a casket or embalming. Ruth can walk you through the lowest-cost dignified options.
