Notfallordner & precaution check
Everything settled.
Everything in one place.
Everything in good hands.
Your Notfallordner (German emergency-folder concept for testament + advance directives + insurance) bundles everything your family and your business need when the worst happens. Powers of attorney, account list, passwords. I safeguard the Notfallkoffer, keep it current and hand it over to the right people.

What happens if something happens tomorrow?
Accounts
67%
of families have no access to the deceased's bank accounts in the first weeks.
Crypto
140 bn
USD in Bitcoin are considered lost because access credentials were never shared.
Power of attorney
72%
of Germans have no Vorsorgevollmacht (German durable power of attorney for healthcare and finances). In an emergency, the court decides.

In an emergency
What happens when you can no longer act?
Your Notfallkoffer is with me. And this is what happens next:
An event occurs
Accident, illness or death. Your trusted person knows the procedure.
Trusted person contacts me
One phone call is enough. The authorised person reaches out.
Identity verified, folder handed over
After legitimation (power of attorney or Erbschein, German certificate of inheritance), the entitled persons receive all documents.
Everything in the right place
Accounts, powers of attorney, contracts, crypto access. Nothing gets lost. Nothing gets forgotten.
“My job does not end with the tax return.
When the worst happens, I am the one who takes care.”
Florian Enders, tax adviser
Professional safekeeping
Sensitive data should not
just lie around.
The desk drawer? Insecure. The computer? Hackable. A cloud service? No statutory protection. As a tax adviser I safeguard your Notfallkoffer under the umbrella of professional secrecy.
Professional secrecy §203 StGB
Statutory protection. A breach is punishable by imprisonment. A cloud service cannot offer that.
Annual review
I remind you when documents are out of date or when laws change.
Defined access rules
Only legitimised persons gain access in an emergency. Clearly documented.
No third-party provider
No cloud, no app. Directly with your tax adviser. Full stop.
