Ellis Family Guides publishes The Peace of Mind Series by Margaret K. Ellis — books built on a simple conviction: the paperwork of a life should never become a burden on the people we love.
Our books show their work. Every figure is checked against the primary sources — the statutes themselves, not someone else's summary. The state-by-state tables cite the law behind every number, so you or your attorney can verify any claim in minutes. And because laws change, the books change too: every title is reviewed and refreshed on a regular schedule, with the newest tables always free on the companion page.
The complete estate planning guide & organizer: wills, trusts, digital assets, and everything your family needs to know — in plain English, with every worksheet printed right in the book.
“It is not a dry legal textbook and deals with death empathetically… an outstanding work that is concise, clearly written, and full of practical advice, covering factors that you may never have considered. This valuable resource is highly recommended.” Leonard Smuts for Readers’ Favorite — five starsSee it on Amazon Free Companion Pack
