Create an "In case of death" Binder

Once you have created and gathered important documents, these should be organized in a binder.

Use personal preference to create either a digital or an analog binder. Someone in your family should know where to locate this binder.

Compile important information into a single place.

Include the following documents and information:

  • Will
  • Living will, advance directives
  • Medical POA
  • Life insurance policies
  • Information on prepaid funeral/final disposition services
  • List of anyone who should be contacted in case of disability or death
  • Where any of the above can be found

For brevity and security, you might just list where information can be found, such as:

  • The law firm where will is recorded
  • Where to find passwords
  • Where to find financial records
