Every kit and ebook downloads the moment you pay, day or night. Questions get answered after we open in the morning.
Browse the storeWho it is for
Families, caregivers, people living alone, and anyone getting a will, power of attorney or advance directive signed.
Not the right fit if
You need a will, power of attorney or advance directive drafted: this is an organizing binder, not a legal document.
Why it is different
- Records where things are, never the passwords or account numbers themselves.
- Names the New Jersey statutes for signing wills, powers of attorney and advance directives.
- Word files to fill in and PDFs to print.
What is inside
- Read this first. How to use it and what never to write down.
- Emergency contacts and medical. Who to call, doctors, medications, allergies and your health care representative.
- Important documents checklist. Where each original is kept, with how New Jersey requires wills, powers of attorney and advance directives to be signed.
- Household and pet care. Keys, shut-offs, bills that must be paid, pets and dependents.
- 72-hour emergency plan. Meeting places, go-bags and outage safety.
- "If something happens to me" letter. A personal letter to the person who steps in.
