Life insurance policies typically have a two-year exclusionary period for suicide, so your beneficiary typically would receive whatever you paid in premiums, but not the policy's face value. So-called "suicide clauses" vary by insurer and are designed to discourage people from buying life insurance when contemplating suicide.
Another caveat: If you're killed while committing a crime, the claim might be denied.
And last, if you don't disclose to your insurer when you apply for a policy that you have a high-risk hobby, such as sky-diving or auto racing, and you die while doing it, your insurer may decline the claim.

Life insurance claim denials usually occur because of errors with the policy or a policy lapse. Keep your policy updated and accurate to avoid a denied claim.www.insurance.com
