LifeinCase is a personal document storage solution that is Made in the U.S.A. and helps anyone organize all the needed documents we must keep safe.

There are many gifts you can get a graduate, but this useful and portable organizer is reasonable (under $40) and cuts through the clutter that years of poor document management can create.

The packaging is durable, and organizes documents into an intuitive five-part system: Personal, Medical, Property, Estate, and Financial, each featuring a sturdy file folder and handy checklist of suggested documents to store.

LifeinCase’s 500-sheet capacity is designed in a “grab-n-go tote” and is lightweight and much more resilient than the old accordion-style folders of the past. Low tech, it's your no fail, no crash, go-to source for your must-have papers.

Like many useful inventions, the backstory on it was born from necessity: A family tragedy made worse by document disaster.

“My father passed away suddenly of a brain aneurysm and we were in shock and left to sort through a lifetime’s worth of papers crammed into multiple file cabinets, envelopes and lock boxes throughout the house,” says LifeinCase co-inventor Diane Hoyle-Moran. “It was nearly impossible to find the documents we really needed such as insurance information, military papers and the will – making an already difficult time worse for my family. If we just had a guideline of what we needed to keep
and one place to keep it in – it would have allowed us to settle my dad’s
estate without any guesswork.”

For those of us in earthquake and flash fire country, this easy to grab and go in an emergency situation or ordered evacuation.  I also loved the neatness of how it stored on shelves, and how it gave peace of mind when I knew where all my really important papers were.

“We like to say - Just in Case, LifeinCase,” says co-inventor Mark Gibson. The LifeinCase is ideal for many circumstances including: home downsizing, moving or travel, emergency evacuations (floods, fires, earthquakes or hurricanes, etc.),
divorce proceedings, medical documentation and insurance billing, bill
paying, loan management, tax filing/audits and more.

It is also a marvelous and thoughtful gift for a senior living in an assisted living residence where storage space limited.

Each LifeinCase Portable Document Solution is made in the U.S.A. and features a tough and attractive 12.5 x 10 x 2.5 inch “grab-n-go tote” plus a 5-part intuitive filing system organizing essential Personal, Property,
Medical, Financial, and Estate documents. 

Under $40 and available at www.LifeinCase.com
