San Diego, CA (PRWEB) September 22, 2009 -- DocBuilder.com is launching an initiative to encourage people to not only protect their families by creating a Last Will and Testament, but to protect our nation's valuable forest resources as well. For a limited time, DocBuilder.com is pledging to donate a portion of the proceeds from every online sale and have a tree planted in each customer's honor by the nation's oldest nonprofit citizen conservation organization, americanforests.org.

The number of Americans aged 35-50 who have created Wills in the last 18 months has dropped to a recent low. Unemployment is at record highs and people think they simply cannot afford a Will, or that they do not have enough assets. In other cases, people simply assume that their property will automatically go to their closest family members. Unfortunately, all of these assumptions are wrong.

"We hope to inform conservation minded people that a simple will is probably the most important legal document any person over the age of 18 should have," said Richard Hernandez, spokesperson for DocBuilder.com. "It's been our observation that many people who care deeply and passionately about protecting the environment haven't taken the simple measure of protecting their own families. We want to let people know that it's much easier than they think. Basically, if you own a home, have a child, or want to give something specific to specific person, then you need to have at least a simple will in place. DocBuilder.com provides a convenient solution that allows you to prepare a last will or living trust entirely online."

Quite often, unexpected deaths are further complicated by costly and time consuming court proceedings which add unnecessary stress to an already difficult situation. DocBuilder has a simple, affordable process that makes it easier than ever to create a will.
