Succession Story

Terms and Conditions

Last Updated: December 2025

By accessing or using Succession Story, you agree to these Terms and Conditions. If you do not agree, please do not use the service.

What This Is

Succession Story is a guided writing experience that helps you put your values, intentions, and personal wishes into words for the people you care about. It is designed to help you explain the meaning behind your decisions, share your life lessons, and leave a thoughtful message your family can return to.

This tool helps you reflect, organize your thoughts, and create a polished personal letter in your own voice. It is meant to complement your estate planning, not replace it.

What This Is Not

Succession Story is not legal, tax, or financial advice. It does not create, change, or override any will, trust, or estate plan. Nothing you write here has legal effect or controls how assets are distributed.

This tool does not replace conversations with your family or guidance from an attorney or advisor. It is simply a way to express what matters to you, in your own words.
