The Full Loop

One platform.
Every person who needs to be involved.

Bequestra connects funeral homes, families, estate attorneys, and financial advisors into a single coordinated case — so nothing falls through the cracks.

Who's Involved

Four parties. One coordinated case.

Funeral Home
Activates the case
Family
Gets guided support
Estate Attorney
Coordinates probate
Financial Advisor
Manages assets
All coordinated through Bequestra
1
Phase 1 · Partner Activation

The funeral home opens the case.

When a family comes in, the funeral home director creates a Bequestra case in under 2 minutes. The family receives a secure, branded invitation to their coordination portal.

1

Case Created

Funeral home enters decedent details, service type, and family contact. A case file is opened instantly.

2

Family Invited

An email or text goes out to the next-of-kin with a secure link to their personalized portal. No app download required.

3

Documents Collected

Death certificates, service agreements, and insurance info are uploaded to the shared case vault from day one.

Funeral homes spend 20–30 unpaid hours per case on follow-up coordination. Bequestra eliminates that burden — so staff can focus on what they do best.

2
Phase 2 · Family Guidance

The family gets a roadmap.

Instead of facing 55+ tasks alone, the family logs into a guided six-phase checklist. Each task is explained in plain language, with the right professional connected at the right time.

1

Six-Phase Checklist

Immediate arrangements → Notifications → Financial → Legal → Property → Long-term. Every task in the right order.

2

Deadline Tracking

Time-sensitive tasks like Social Security notifications and account freezes are flagged automatically so nothing is missed.

3

Grief Support Access

Counseling resources, support groups, and community connections are embedded throughout the experience.

Families complete post-loss coordination 60% faster with a structured platform vs. navigating alone. Every completed task reduces stress and prevents costly mistakes.

3
Phase 3 · Professional Coordination

The right professionals, at the right time.

Based on the family's situation, Bequestra identifies which professionals need to be involved and facilitates warm, structured introductions — so no one starts from zero.

1

Estate Attorney

Introduced when probate tasks appear. Receives a pre-populated case summary so the intake call takes minutes, not hours.

2

Financial Advisor

Connected when assets, insurance, or retirement accounts need attention. Account transfer docs pre-staged in the vault.

3

Cross-Party Visibility

Every professional sees the same shared case timeline. No duplicate intake, no conflicting advice, no dropped handoffs.

The average estate involves 4–6 different professionals. Without coordination infrastructure, each one operates in isolation — creating delays, errors, and frustrated families.

The Full Loop

From first call to case closed.

Every step, every party, in sequence.

Step 1 · Funeral Home

Opens a case and invites the family to their branded portal. Inputs decedent information and service details.

Step 2 · Family

Receives a secure link via email or text. Logs into a guided checklist covering 55+ post-loss tasks across six phases.

Step 3 · Bequestra

Identifies which professionals need to be involved based on the family's situation and sends coordinated introductions.

Step 4 · Estate Attorney

Receives a case summary and begins probate intake. Documents are uploaded directly to the shared case vault.

Step 5 · Financial Advisor

Reviews the family's asset summary. Coordinates beneficiary transfers and insurance claims within the same platform.

Step 6 · Case Closed

All tasks completed. Documents archived. Family receives a closure summary. Partners mark the case resolved.
