Quiet Closure
Begin intake

We close your loved one's online accounts, so you don't have to.

Email, social media, subscriptions, cloud storage — every platform has its own forms, rules, and waiting periods. We handle that maze for you, quietly and respectfully, entirely by email.

How it works

Step 1

Confidential intake

Fill out a short, private form — the accounts you know about, and who is handling the estate. Take it at your own pace.

Step 2

Fixed quote & documents

We reply by email with a fixed price and a simple list of documents to upload — typically the death certificate and proof you're the executor or next of kin.

Step 3

We handle the rest

We submit closure and memorialization requests through each platform's official channel, follow up until they're confirmed, and send you a final written report for the estate's records.

The part of loss no one warns you about

Most families are surprised to discover how many places their loved one still "exists" online — an email inbox, photo storage, social profiles, and a long tail of subscriptions quietly charging the estate every month. Each one requires a different process to close.

That's the work we take off your plate. No phone calls. No office visits. No explaining your loss to a stranger on hold. Just a clear process, handled carefully, with written updates along the way.

Flat fees, agreed in writing before any work begins. Half at the start, half on delivery of your final report.

How we protect you and your loved one

Plain-language notice: Quiet Closure is a document preparation and submission service. We are not attorneys and do not provide legal, tax, or financial advice. Decisions about who inherits digital assets belong to the estate and, where applicable, its attorney — we carry out the closures once that authority is established.

Common questions

Are you lawyers?

No. We're a specialized documentation and account-closure service. Many of our clients are referred by estate attorneys who handle the legal side while we handle the tedious platform-by-platform paperwork. If your situation needs legal advice, we'll say so and suggest you speak with an estate attorney.

What do you need from me?

Typically three things: a certified copy of the death certificate, proof that you're the executor or next of kin (such as letters testamentary or a short-form certificate), and a list of the accounts you know about. If you don't know all the accounts, our Full Estate service can find recurring charges from bank statements you provide.

Will you need passwords or access to their devices?

No — and we'll decline if offered. Every platform (Google, Meta, Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, and others) has an official process for deceased users' accounts. Using those channels protects you, the estate, and your loved one's privacy.

How long does it take?

We submit the first batch of requests within 72 hours of receiving your documents. Platforms themselves vary — some confirm within days, others take several weeks. We follow up until every request is confirmed and keep you updated in writing.

Can you recover photos, emails, or files before closing an account?

Sometimes — but order matters. Some platforms permanently destroy data on closure, and data requests generally must come first. Tell us in the intake form if there's anything you hope to preserve, and we'll sequence the requests accordingly. Where a platform requires a court order for data access (Apple often does), we'll flag it so you can raise it with the estate's attorney.

What if my loved one lived outside Pennsylvania?

We serve families nationwide. Almost all of this work is done through online portals and email, so location rarely matters. We're based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.

What happens to memorialized accounts?

Some platforms, like Facebook, offer memorialization — the profile stays visible with "Remembering" above the name, no one can log in, and it's protected from misuse. We'll walk you through the choice between memorializing and deleting for each platform, in plain language, so you can decide what feels right.
