I have a 50,000.00 term life insurance policy. I have about 10,000.00 in judgments against me (on my credit report).
If I die will that 10,000.00 be deducted from the 50,000.00 insurance proceeds?

I guess your creditors won't have anything out of your life insurance proceeds if you've named a beneficiary. If you haven't assigned a beneficiary, then your proceeds go to your estate and the creditors may claim their amounts out of it.

Thereafter, the probate court will decide about the remaining amount on the basis of your will. If you don't have any will, then it will be decided on the basis of your state laws.
