Amicus Creative Media Launches LegalVault

For Immediate Release


(November 5, 2009, Manhasset, NY)  Amicus Creative Media, a developer of state of the art websites for law firms, has launched LegalVault, a comprehensive advance directives  storage system for estate planning attorneys.  The new system allows users to easily and securely store documents and other vital personal information for convenient retrieval by clients, advisors, healthcare providers, and authorized heirs and administrators.

“The basic services on the market failed to provide estate planning firms and their clients with storage and accessibility options to view both healthcare and non-healthcare documents at their convenience” said attorney Fred Cohen, President of Amicus.  To address these limitations, an innovative storage system was developed based on extensive consultations with attorneys, software developers, digital security experts, doctors and law firm administrators.  

The system which has free enrollment for law firms (there are no set-up fees), enables attorney’s clients to store a variety of information, providing a tangible value-added benefit for today’s time-crunched clients.  Now in addition to healthcare and non-healthcare related documents, clients can store and access information relating to their  assets, financial accounts, policy statements, tax returns, even passwords for their online accounts and social networking memberships, which serves to protect their virtual legacy.  

LegalVault stores crucial healthcare information such as living wills, healthcare powers of attorney, emergency contacts, allergies, medications, and physician information.  Using this data, LegalVault provides an emergency access wallet card containing the clients’ personal information which allows medical personnel to easily obtain medical information, alert emergency contacts, and access advance directives. A sophisticated two-tiered system allows hospitals to view only healthcare-related documents, while the firm and its’ clients can access all the stored documents.  This card can be customized to include the law firm’s logo on it at no extra charge.

LegalVault’s user-friendly technology allows firms to create new client accounts in just minutes from an easy to use control panel.  Once an account has been created, the client is assigned a secure user name and password which allows them 24/7 internet access to their account.  The firm can then upload an unlimited number of documents for the client, while the client can also add an unlimited number of documents.  LegalVault employs advanced HIPAA compliant security and privacy safeguards similar to that used by banks.
    
LegalVault offers law firms a unique service which their clients will value for years to come.  Base pricing is $30/ year per client, with discounts available for member firms of select bar associations and attorney organizations.  For more information on LegalVault, go to www.legalvault.com or call 877-269-0076.
