Independent. Local. Built around the people often underserved.
Good Life Insurance Group is a licensed independent insurance brokerage based in Gilbert, Arizona — built around three audiences who deserve a better conversation: veterans, truck drivers, and working families.
Dalis Smith, Founder & Licensed Agent.
Dalis Smith is the founder and lead agent of Good Life Insurance Group. She holds active life and health insurance licenses in Arizona and additional states (verifiable on our licenses page), and she's spent her career placing coverage that fits real households — not the one a captive carrier needs to push that quarter.
The Will Kit is her invention. After years watching families fumble at the worst possible moment for documents that should have been on file, she built a giveaway around the three most-overlooked: a living will, a power of attorney, and a one-page family financial roadmap. There's no purchase obligation, ever. The kit is mailed in 48 hours.
"My job isn't to sell you something. My job is to make sure your family has a plan."
States licensed
Arizona is home base. We're licensed across the Southwest and beyond. Verifiable through every state's DOI public lookup.
Carriers only
We exclusively place coverage with A.M. Best A-rated or better carriers. No exceptions, no exotic placements.
Audiences we know deep
Veterans, truck drivers, working families. Not because we say so on a website — because the underwriting differences matter.
Independent broker, by design.
An independent broker works for the client, not the carrier. We're appointed with multiple A-rated carriers — which means when we quote you, we're comparing actual options, not steering you to the one product we have to sell.
That structural independence matters most for the audiences we focus on:
- Veterans — VGLI's 5-year rate ladder makes it the wrong long-term answer for many. We compare it head-to-head with civilian options, and we're honest when VGLI is actually the better path.
- Truckers — BMI tables, sleep-apnea compliance, and the trucking lifestyle are underwritten very differently across carriers. The right carrier match can be the difference between "preferred" and "decline."
- Working families — most agents push whole life because it pays them more. We push the policy structure that actually fits your life — most often, term life — and we explain why when whole life is the right answer.
