Unfortunately a dear friend of mine has passed away. He had life insurance through his work, and his work filed the claim due to his passing at work. His family reached out to the insurance company and found out the claim was started by his work and they will be sending info to them.
However, I believe he set me at the beneficiary due to being estranged from his family and us being roommates for years. Will the insurance company reach out to me? Should I reach out to them even though the claim has already been filed?
I think I am the beneficiary for a friend's life insurance, will they contact me?

They’re supposed to try. But if your friend gave them wrong contact information, then they wouldnt be able to contact you.

Wouldn’t hurt. And it’s what I would recommend.
