Does Your Estate Planning Service Cover The Digital Realm?

In the age of the internet where so much of your information is stored on line under the protection of user names, passwords, and a varied assortment of security systems – many still don’t think about how a loved one would gain access to these systems when they die.

As an estate planning attorney you generally help your clients prepare for when they are no longer around or can no longer make decisions for themselves, but do you help them plan for what will happen to all of their online access?

This issue is even more legitimized by the American Bar Association in their write up Estate Planning Your Digital Assests.

A new service, Entrustet, is offering a service that helps people easily transfer their login information safely, securely, and for free.

Entrustet works hand-in-hand with estate planning attorneys to help provide your clients with the highest possible level of digital asset protection. Our goal is to be a trusted resource for information to help you become experts in this emerging and crucial area of estate planning, as well as serve as a referral source with the Lawyer Directory.

From a marketing standpoint, they are offering listings in their Lawyer Directory which only has a Google Pagerank of 2 (as of writing this article).  However, you could see an increased amount of traffic from their site to yours from the generation that is looking for an estate planning attorney that will take their clients “online needs” into account.

The directory listing is only $40/month with an annual contract.  If you would like to be listed in the directory, start the process by emailing lawyers@entrustet.com.
