The "New York Life" American insurance company under the pressure of the Armenian lobbyist organizations agreed to publicize the lists of Armenians insured in the Ottoman Turkey on the eve of the First World War. The majority of insured Armenians became victims of the genocide organized by the Government of the Young Turks. In spite of the terms of the contract, the promised sum to them and their successors were not been even paid. The Association of the Armenian lawyers in USA undertook the process of receiving insurances defined by law.
