Buried in Work Introduces the Estate Planning Pyramid and End-of-Life Planning Pathway

New Tools Provide Families and Professionals with a Clear, Actionable Framework for Planning Ahead

Potomac, Maryland — Buried in Work (www.BuriedInWork.com), the trusted platform for simplifying estate planning and end-of-life organization, today announced the launch of its Estate Planning Pyramid and End-of-Life Planning Pathway. These new frameworks provide clear, practical guidance to help families and professionals move through critical planning steps with confidence. The End-of-Life Planning Pathway guides individuals through simple, thoughtful steps to plan for care, resting place, and remembrance. The Estate Planning Pyramid shows how core documents, strong organization, and advanced strategies work together to build a complete, lasting estate plan.

Developed for families preparing their own plans and for the professionals who guide them, including attorneys, financial advisors, healthcare providers, and end-of-life specialists, the Estate Planning Pyramid and End-of-Life Planning Pathway offer a modern roadmap to help ensure that no important details are overlooked.

“Estate planning and end-of-life preparation have traditionally been complicated and confusing,” said Adam Zuckerman, Founder of Buried in Work. “Our Pyramid and Pathway transform that experience into something people can move through clearly and confidently, step by step, with the right level of support at every stage.”

The Estate Planning Pyramid organizes planning into three focused tiers:

  • Core: Essential documents and information every adult should organize
  • Comprehensive: Expanded planning to protect assets, clarify wishes, and ease transitions for loved ones
  • Advanced: Advanced strategies designed for families with complex needs or significant assets

The End-of-Life Planning Pathway provides a practical, human-centered sequence of steps across three key pathways:

  • Pathway 1 | Advance Care and End-of-Life Planning: Make care and end-of-life decisions with clarity and confidence.
  • Pathway 2: Final Resting Place Planning: Select the resting place and arrangements that reflect your wishes.
  • Pathway 3: Final Tribute Planning: Plan how you want your life and legacy to be honored.

Both frameworks are designed to empower individuals to take control of their planning and to support service providers in offering clients a more guided, comprehensive approach.
