My elder uncle passed away recently and now another uncle of mine is the owner of my insurance policy but he refused to give it to me. I believe he has sold if by now. I had that insurance for more than 30 yrs. I asked him to hand it over to me and he refused. Can I sue him?

Do you have any of the papers for this policy or any other form of proof?

You might mean that you were insured for more than 30 years, but when were you the owner of the policy?

If you were never the owner of the policy, you still are not the owner of the policy and cannot force the owner of the policy to do something they choose not to do. A former policyowner has every right to sell, transfer, give away, or terminate a policy without regard for the insured or beneficiary, unless the beneficiary is irrevocable.

I fail to see that you have any claim or interest in the policy.

Do you have any documents that can prove that the insurance policy belonged to you? If you've evidence, then you can sue your uncle in the court for selling your policy without your prior permission.

LMAO!

If an insurance company permitted a nonowner to "sell" someone's life insurance policy, it is the insurance company that someone would sue. Suing UNCLE is not a realistic scenario.

The fact is the OP was not the owner of the policy in question and that means whoever the owner was had the right to do with it as they please. The likelihood of the policy being "SOLD" is almost ZERO. Cashed in is more like it.

Do you have any proof or legal document regarding your insurance which shows that it is your policy. If yes, then you can sue your uncle.

WRONG. If anything, Uncle has committed a crime, and only the District Attorney can prosecute that. Read my answer on 13 Sept 2013. And why are you dredging up old posts?

Who is paying the premiums on this policy?
