Years estate documents must survive intact
Wills, trusts, powers of attorney, and succession plans must survive decades, outlasting any cloud service, technology platform, or corporate provider. Cloud accounts die with their owners, leaving families locked out of critical documents. Services change, merge, or shut down, putting stored documents at risk. Uncertainty about document integrity escalates family conflicts during succession.
Scenario, protection, outcome.
What actually happens
A family patriarch passes away. His will, trust documents, and power of attorney are stored in a cloud service. The family cannot access the account, the password died with him, and the provider's recovery process takes months. Meanwhile, a disputed earlier version of the will surfaces, triggering a costly legal battle that could have been avoided with verified, tamper-evident storage.
