Client Instructions

We are pleased to announce that the Legacy Law Group of Northern Virginia, PLLC is providing you with access to the My Life and Wishes Legacy Vault as part of our Estate Planning Services.

We’ve partnered with My Life and Wishes to upload and store the planning documents we’ve prepared for you.  However, the site is an all-inclusive, state-of-the-art portal where you can digitally store any other documents you wish to upload.  In addition to documents, it is a place where you can store and keep track of all your on-line accounts, website logins and passwords, all available to you at the touch of a button, 24/7.  It is a complete organizational and planning tool to keep your critical information safe and accessible to you and those who may need it when you’re gone.

You’ve planned and worked hard to make sure your loved ones will be taken care of.  Make sure to protect these planning documents and everything else they will need with your new Legacy Vault through My Life and Wishes.

We’ve taken the first step for you by creating your account. It’s simple to login and complete the rest on your own.

Other Important Features to Consider

1. Assign an Account Co-Owner

If you are married, have a partner, or have someone you’d like to share an account with, you may want to consider inviting that person to be your account co-owner. When you invite an account co-owner, your site will expand to accommodate information for two individuals, as well as joint information. Your co-owner must accept the email invitation for this feature to be active

2. Considered Authorized Users

Designating an authorized user is an important feature to consider. An authorized user does not have any of their personal information housed in your site. An authorized user is designated by you to “view only” or “edit” any section or all sections of your site. Whether you have one or multiple authorized users, you choose what you want your authorized user to be able to edit or see.

3. Enable 2 Factor Authentication 

Two-factor authentication (2FA) is a security process that uses two different methods when you login into your My Life and Wishes account. When you sign into your account, we will send a 6-digit code to your phone or email, whichever option you have selected

To enable any of the above features click on ACCOUNT SETTINGS in the lower left-hand corner of your dashboard.  To enable 2 Factor Authentication, expand the ACCT INFO section.

4. Materials and other important information

Watch for emails from info@mylifeandwishes.com. These emails contain links to our User Guide, and include helpful information about the features and options included in your plan.  (Make sure to mark as a safe sender to avoid these emails ending up in a clutter or spam folder.)

If you do not plan on sharing your account with anyone, you are being provided with a card and envelope for you to record your My Life and Wishes login information.  We recommend you fill this out and store it in a secure place.  Or, give it to a trusted loved one or your Advisor.  That way, in the event of an emergency, the person you designate will have the information to access your site.
