The Family Love Letter is not a legal document but a gift of clarity and love—helping families find everything they need in one place when it matters most.

"No one likes to think about these matters, but we can’t overstate the importance of the Family Love Letter. It prepares loved ones for the confusion of difficult circumstances. By pulling these important documents together and leaving important details in one place – email passwords, codes to the safe, etc. – men and women are getting their house in order for the good of those they are about most."
