Private living trust safekeeping
Store your living trust sealed. Change it as often as you like. When you pass, we verify the death and deliver the current version to your successor trustee, and only to them.
Notice of sealed trust
A living trust for this person is held sealed by Kept Until.
Keep this card with your important papers. In the event of death, call (323) 854-3151 or visit keptuntiltrust.com.
Give your trust to family and they read it now. Hide it and they may never find it. Leave it with an attorney and it disappears when the firm closes or you move.
They know who inherits what while you're still alive. Every future change becomes a family conversation.
It gets lost, thrown out, or found by the wrong person. An outdated copy can surface instead of the real one.
They wait for family to come to them. If nobody knows the account exists, nothing is ever released.
1
Upload your signed trust, or meet our notary to sign and seal it in one visit. You name your successor trustee and a backup.
2
We mail a Notice of Sealed Trust to the people you choose. It proves a trust exists and how to claim it. It reveals nothing inside.
3
Amend or restate whenever you want. Only your newest version is released. Old versions stay sealed in the record, never sent out by mistake.
4
After a certified death certificate is received and verified by a person, we contact your successor trustee directly and deliver the trust to them.
Family members can report a death. Only your named successor trustee receives the document.
A yearly check-in by email and text. If you stop answering, we reach out to your emergency contact instead of waiting.
No automated unlocks. A commissioned California notary reviews the death certificate and the trustee's ID.
Based in Los Angeles. Meet us to sign, notarize and seal in one appointment. Your original can be held, not just a scan.
Tamper protection
Every change has to pass five checks before it becomes the version your trustee receives.
Your identity is checked in person by a notary or through government ID verification before your vault opens.
Changes require a passkey or authenticator app, plus a fresh sign-in at the moment you submit them.
A new version is accepted only with a notarized signature, so a stolen password alone can never replace your trust.
We email and text you when a new version arrives. It only becomes current if you don't dispute it within 7 days.
Each version is fingerprinted and time-stamped in a record that can't be edited or deleted, by anyone, including us.
Family and trustees can only report a death. Staff actions need two people to approve and are logged.
For estate planning attorneys
Seal each trust at signing under your firm's name. When a client passes, you and their successor trustee are notified together, so the administration work comes back to your office.
