Who we are
I’m Adam Cormick, and Summit Legacy wasn’t born from a business idea — it came from necessity.
After years in court fighting to protect my relationship with my daughter, I reached a point where stepping back was the only way to keep her safe. That realisation hit hard. My greatest fear wasn’t just losing time with her — it was losing my narrative. I didn’t want my story rewritten, twisted, or left in fragments when she eventually came looking for answers.
So I started writing.
At first, it was scattered — trying to capture every memory, lesson, and moment before they slipped away. I didn’t want her growing up with only one version of events. I wanted her to have the full picture: the context, the truth, and the heart behind my absence.
I worked with psychologists and trusted people in my life to shape those words — not to defend myself or relive the past, but to create something honest and complete. Something she could read without confusion or doubt.
That’s why Summit Legacy is built the way it is:
Structured. Linear. Kid-focused.
It’s designed to give children clarity — and fathers a safe outlet to finally say what’s been trapped inside.
Through that process, I realised something deeper:
There are countless fathers in the same position.
Men who love deeply but are silenced by circumstance.
Men who want their children to understand the “why,” to feel the love that never stopped — even when distance made it invisible.
Summit Legacy exists to give those fathers a way forward.
A guided letter structure to speak freely without fear.
A way to answer the questions their children will inevitably ask.
A way to preserve their truth, their values, and their presence — even when life has made that difficult.
It’s overwhelming to know where to begin with something so emotional and profound. That’s why the template matters — it breaks the overwhelmingness down into something you can build.
This isn’t about reopening wounds.
It’s about rebuilding a bond that was taken from you.
It’s about giving your child a complete backstory — so they can understand, heal, and reconnect when the time is right.
Because it’s never too late.
Life is long.
And your words matter more than you think.
