Assets In Order Introduces Legacy Lockbox, a Secure Online Storage Service With End-of-Life Management Capabilities
HOUSTON, TX, Jan 30, 2013 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) --
When tragedy strikes and a family member suddenly passes away, loved
ones are left to try and piece together that person's assets and
final wishes while coping with their own shock, heartache and sense
of loss. To protect families from going through such heartache, a
Texas-based company, Assets In Order, now offers an easy-to-use,
affordable online solution called Legacy Lockbox that enables
individuals to plan ahead.
Legacy Lockbox allows members to store, organize and update a wide
range of personal information and documentation in a single, secure
place for future access by loved ones. The online service is
protected by 256-bit encryption, equal to security levels used by
banks and major financial institutions. What makes Legacy Lockbox
unique as compared with other online storage services is its
end-of-life management capabilities. Members select what individuals
will receive specific digital contents from their Legacy Lockbox,
should their passing occur. Members also designate two verifiers who
notify Legacy Lockbox upon the member's passing and submit the
official documentation required to release asset information to the
assigned recipients.
Legacy Lockbox offers a Heritage membership, which includes 1GB of
storage capacity and accommodates a wide range of file types,
including audio and video, for $19.95 per year. An additional storage
upgrade is available for a nominal fee. Stored files can range from
wills, powers of attorney, life insurance documents and financial
accounts to social media passwords, photos, pet directives, favorite
family recipes and even personal messages. Legacy Lockbox users
decide what the contents will be and who receives each item.
Legacy Lockbox was created by successful entrepreneur, David Harris,
after he and a friend each experienced the unexpected loss of a
family member and were unable to find important documents such as
burial plans, life insurance policies and financial documents. "The
struggle of searching for documents during a time of heartache brings
on so much additional stress," said Harris. "I realized that there
needed to be a simple, easy and affordable way for a person to get
their assets in order, offering a peace of mind for loved ones. I
decided that a service was needed to keep others from going through
the personal hardship that so many of us have experienced."
Since its introduction, individuals have purchased Legacy Lockbox and
forward-thinking companies in industries such as healthcare, real
estate and technology have provided it for their employees and
clients as a benefit, Harris added.

also available to store limited account information.
