Ask whether assignment is available for your policy and location, what fees apply, and what you must pay upfront. MedaSynq does not arrange assignments.

“We quickly realize, we’re never fully prepared to deal with losing a loved one. And although a reality of life, it can be difficult just navigating the emotional aspect of it—let alone having to handle the logistics. My experience with Hamlar-Curtis was truly a blessing. They provided the perfect emotional touch and professionally guided us through the ceremony process, which allowed our family to grieve and more importantly celebrate the life of the one we lost. The entire Hamlar-Curtis staff was genuine and compassionate. Having personal experience with the founding generation, the 3rd generation continues to maintain the core values.”
