• “To simplify the burden surrounding estate planning, when someone dies, estate transition, and probate.”

After Andy died from cancer, his son (Adam) found himself working through a never-ending stack of paperwork. Before Adam even started on the tasks related to the estate transition, he spent hours tracking down bank accounts, paying utility bills, and taking care of Andy's online accounts and digital legacy. Adam made a list of all the things he had to do, and after the list reached three hundred items in just a matter of weeks, he realized that there had to be a better way.

That's why Adam created Buried in Work… When it’s time for others to face what’s often one of the most difficult times in life, he wants it to make the process as easy as possible.

BuriedinWork offers numerous free resources, including checklists, worksheets, how-to guides on a variety of topics, templates, and more.

For those in need of step-by-step guidance, we can help with that as well through offerings such as the Estate Preparation Package, the End-of-Life Package, and the Executor’s Toolkit.

Buried in Work has been very well received and is already making an impact on people’s lives. Recently, a widow in Maryland who learned that she was just two days away from losing a $403,000 life insurance policy when she followed the steps in our What To Do Before Someone Dies Checklist.

The reality is that many people don’t think about getting their affairs in order until it is too late. Or, they believe that having a will or a trust is “good enough”. Unfortunately, that’s not the case.

While preparing for the inevitable can be overwhelming, it’s best to start now as life can be unpredictable.
