The Family Information Organizer
“There is in the act of preparing, the moment you start caring.” —Winston Churchill
A longtime friend named Dana called me one day because she needed help. Her father had just passed away and she didn’t know what to do. Although I’ve helped clients’ children through similar situations many times, something occurred to me as I saw her left lost and alone with a scattered paper trail and no instructions to help her through: Having all essential information in one place makes a challenging time easier and leaves a legacy of respect and security. This book was created to help your family members navigate loss while also making sure you have everything you need in times of emergency or natural disaster. Receiving this book gives you a good reason to begin gathering your information now, rather than wait for a crisis to act.
Before helping Dana, I had taken our firm’s emergency planning benefit for granted because we have records of family finances at our fingertips. Our clients get an elevated level of care because we work with the professionals in their lives and have made the investment in tools, employees, and education necessary to create an objective and tailored plan to manage risks, simplify financial lives, maintain wealth, and provide for heirs. Most people don’t have that level of care, and while this is not a replacement for services we provide, it is our attempt to help our clients and those who don’t have the support we offer. This book was created to help you take care of your family through emergencies by having all essential information in one place (extra pages, which can be duplicated, are at the back of the document to provide enough space for all of your information).

Divorce is never only about dividing assets. For many couples, the most difficult conversations don’t revolve around bank accounts or real estate—they center on the art, antiques, wine, or collectibles that hold both financial and emotional weight.
