For families
So the people close to you are not left guessing.
Being prepared is a practical kindness. It takes an evening or two, and it can be done in small steps.
How families use it
If your partner had to handle everything tomorrow
In most couples one person knows where things are. A family handover writes that knowledge down in the order your partner would need it.
Helping your family know what exists
A list of which insurers, banks and providers you use saves weeks of searching through post and email.
Separating information for different people
Your partner, your adult children and your attorney each receive their own handover. Nobody sees the others’.
Preparing for emergencies
An emergency pack holds only what someone needs to step in for a few days. You choose who may ask for it, and you can cancel a request.
If you could no longer manage things yourself
Decide in advance what a person you named should receive in case of incapacity. EverHandover follows your instruction and makes no medical or legal determination.
Preparing for death
The handovers you prepared are released only after the procedure you set has been followed. Until then they stay private.
Supporting the person named in your will
An organised inventory and your attorney’s details give them a practical head start. Their authority comes from the law, not from EverHandover.
Children
Recipients must be adults. For younger children, prepare a handover for the adult who would look after their affairs. When your children are grown, add them as recipients themselves. A future message can be prepared for a date you choose, and the person receiving can decline it.
Try it together first
A practice handover lets your family see what they would receive, using example content. It is the easiest way to find a wrong phone number or an instruction that only makes sense to you.
Start with the person who would need it most.
Add one person, write down what they would need to know, and preview what they would receive.
