Our Team
FinalCostGuide is built and maintained by a small team of researchers and writers focused on funeral pricing transparency and consumer rights. Our contributors have backgrounds in consumer advocacy, data research, and technical writing.
Research & Data
Our pricing data is compiled through public record requests, FTC Funeral Rule price list collection, NFDA survey data cross-referencing, and direct provider verification calls in major metro areas. Every data point is sourced from either a published GPL, a government database, or an industry survey — we do not estimate or extrapolate prices without a verifiable source.
Writers & Editors
Our guides and articles are written by researchers familiar with FTC funeral regulations, state consumer protection laws, VA benefits policy, and the funeral industry. Content is reviewed against current regulatory standards before publication and updated when laws or policies change.
