Does Alcoholism Void Life Insurance? 
If someone is defined as an being an alcoholic after the life insurance policy is issued , and there was no indication of alcoholism noted by a medical professional before issue , or no DUI 's or court treatment were ordered for alcoholic tendencies before the policy went into effect , then alcoholism will not void a life insurance policy . Developing cancer or any other risk factor AFTER a life insurance policy is in effect can not void your life insurance if that risk was not involved at the time the policy was put into effect .
