Practical support for families
organising records after a loss
Stonewake helps families in Sarawak gather, sort, and archive their papers at an unhurried pace — with no advice given and nothing requiring professional licensing.
What We Offer
Three services, each clearly scoped. We state at every stage what the work does not include.
Practical Steps Briefing
A calm one-hour briefing on the practical, non-regulated matters families commonly attend to after a bereavement: which papers are usually gathered, how records are typically organised, and who ordinarily needs to be told.
- Printed step list and document checklist
- Directory of registered professionals for regulated matters
- No advice given, no licensed matter touched
Papers Gathering Support
Three appointments across five weeks in which a coordinator helps the family gather, sort, index and label the papers they hold, producing a bound file with a contents page and a scanned mirror on family storage.
- Written gap list, dividers, and naming convention
- Bound file with scanned digital mirror
- Coordinator does not contact institutions or act in any name
Family Archive & Chronology Retainer
A five-month retainer producing an indexed archive of the family's own documents, a dated chronology drawn from them, provenance notes where the family can evidence them, and a neutral summary sheet for handover.
- Monthly meetings, bound register, digital mirror
- Practitioner directory for Sarawak
- Documentation only — no valuation, no interpretation
What Stonewake does not do
- We do not give legal, financial, or tax advice.
- We do not value any asset or interpret any document.
- We do not contact institutions or act in anyone's name.
- We do not handle regulated matters of any kind.
Why Families Choose Stonewake
Unhurried pace
Appointments are spaced so families are not pressured. Nothing moves faster than the family is ready for.
Clear scope
Every engagement states in writing what is and is not included. Families know exactly what they are paying for.
Documents stay with the family
Originals are never removed from the family's possession. Scanned copies are stored on family-controlled storage only.
Practitioner directories included
We provide directories of registered solicitors, accountants, and other qualified professionals for matters that require them.
Plain language throughout
All written materials — checklists, gap lists, chronologies — use plain sentences. No jargon, no assumptions about prior knowledge.
Based in Kuching
We work within Kuching and the surrounding Sarawak area. Appointments take place at our office or at the family's home.
Is there a pile of papers you have not yet been able to face?
Many families find that the practical task of sorting documents after a bereavement is simply left undone for months. Stonewake can sit with you at your own pace and make a start.
