The real cost of not planning

They won't find it in a drawer. They'll find it in court.

When something happens, your loved ones have 30 days to juggle funerals, banks, insurance, the IRS, Social Security and dozens of accounts. Without a guide, grief becomes paperwork.

Without The Legacy Book

  • Your spouse hunts through emails to find accounts and policies.
  • Digital accounts get locked — photos, subscriptions, crypto — forever.
  • Probate stretches 9–24 months. Legal fees pile up.
  • Disagreements between children over wishes you never wrote down.
  • Funeral decisions made in panic, not in peace.

With The Legacy Book

  • Every asset, account and password organized in one place.
  • A step-by-step guide your loved ones follow without a lawyer.
  • Your final wishes — medical, funeral, legacy — clearly written.
  • Personal messages to the people who matter most.
  • Peace of mind today. A gift of clarity tomorrow.

From the founders

We have family in America. That's why we built this edition.

Hi — we're Arthur and Robin, the two French designers behind The Legacy Book. We started this for our own families, after a question we couldn't answer: “If something happens to me, will you know what to do?”

Ten thousand families in France later, our own relatives across the U.S. kept telling us: “We love the French book, but the laws are completely different here.” So we rebuilt it, chapter by chapter, with U.S. estate law — Revocable Living Trusts, Durable POA, TOD/POD, RUFADAA, IRS Form 706. Same method. Same warmth.

What readers say

Families who stopped putting it off.

The Legacy Book started as a French guide used by thousands of families. Here's what they wrote — and why we're bringing it to the U.S.

★★★★★
This book gave me back control. I know everything my children will need is organized — my estate, my passwords, even the small things. I sleep better, and so does the family.
Brigitte BrigitteGrandmother · first user of The Legacy Book
★★★★★
I filled it out with my mother. It was the most meaningful weekend we'd spent in years — and now my own children know where everything is too. One book, two generations.
Charlotte CharlotteMother of two · second-generation user
★★★★★
I was putting it off for years. I thought it would be heavy. It's not — it's a conversation with yourself, about the people you love. No more scattered papers. No more guilt.
Monique MoniqueCustomer · long-time reader
★★★★★
My wife and I filled it together. The procedures chapter alone is worth the price — our children will know exactly what to do, who to call, and in what order. That's the real gift.

Questions

Before you decide.

Is this legal advice or a will?
No. The Legacy Book is a guided workbook to organize what your family will need — it is not a substitute for a will, trust or attorney. Many readers bring their completed book to their attorney and save hours of billable time.
Does it work in my state?
Yes. The book covers U.S. federal frameworks (Social Security, IRS, RUFADAA) and flags areas that vary by state — probate thresholds, intestate succession, homestead — with prompts to fill in your local specifics. The State-by-State Probate Cheatsheet (bonus 3) fills in the rest.
How do I receive it?
Instantly. After checkout you get a download link plus an email copy of the PDF. Save it, print it, or share it with your spouse.
Can I fill it digitally?
Yes. The PDF is fillable in Preview (Mac), Adobe Reader and most PDF apps. You can also print all 85 pages and fill by hand.
What if it's not for me?
30-day money-back guarantee. One email to contact@thelegacybook.net, full refund, no questions asked.
Is my data safe?
We never see what you write. The PDF lives on your computer, not our servers. Your legacy, in your hands.

Two hours this weekend. A lifetime of peace for the people you love.
