The HotDocs donation program began in 2002, at which point, HotDocs was owned by LexisNexis. In late 2009, Capsoft UK, the largest distributor of HotDocs outside the US, purchased the software business, and has since been renamed HotDocs Ltd. “We’re happy to assist the Wills for Heroes Foundation,” commented Russell Shepherd, CEO of HotDocs Corporation. “It provides a valuable service to thousands of first responders willing to risk their own lives for the public good. We’re honored to be involved with this great organization.”

The Wills for Heroes Foundation began in 2001 in the wake of the 9/11 disaster and consists primarily of volunteer attorneys and other legal professionals. “HotDocs software, which dramatically reduces the time it takes to prepare custom legal documents, enables volunteers to provide individualized, quality estate planning documents to first responders on a much broader scale,” said Anthony Hayes, one of the organization’s co-founders and a partner at Nelson Mullins. “HotDocs is a critical component of the Wills for Heroes Program and we’re delighted that the new owners of HotDocs are continuing to support our program. To date, Wills for Heroes has produced more than 10,000 free wills and collateral documents for our heroic public servants.”
