Why Families Need Online Wills — And Why Gentreo Is the Best Choice

Why Families Need Online Wills

Family life is busy and constantly changing — from the joy of welcoming a new child to the challenges of caring for aging parents. With so much to manage, estate planning often gets pushed to the bottom of the to-do list. But protecting your family’s future is one of the most important steps you can take — and today, it’s easier and more affordable than ever with online wills.

At Gentreo, www.gentreo.com, we believe every family deserves a comprehensive estate plan — not just a will, but an entire set of tools that evolve with you over time. Whether your family is just starting out or has been growing for decades, Gentreo offers the easy, affordable, and secure estate planning solution you need.

Here’s why every family member needs an online will — and why families across the country trust Gentreo to protect what matters most.

Estate Planning Isn’t Just for the Wealthy — It’s for Every Family

It’s a common misconception that estate planning is something only wealthy families need to think about. In reality, every family benefits from an estate plan, no matter how much (or how little) money you have.

Why? Because estate planning isn’t just about passing on wealth — it’s about making sure your children, pets, home, and final wishes are all cared for if something happens to you.

Without a legally valid will, the state steps in to make decisions on your behalf. This can create unnecessary stress, legal fees, and conflict for your loved ones. You can lose anywhere from 3 to 8% of the estate’s worth just to fees. With a will, you stay in control and your family has clear guidance to follow.

What a Will Does for Families

A will does far more than just divide up assets. For each family member, a will can:

  • Name guardians for minor children. If you have children under 18, your will should name who you want to care for them if you pass away.
  • Protect pets. You can designate a pet guardian and even set aside funds for your pets’ care.
  • Avoid unnecessary legal battles. When your wishes are clear, your family is less likely to face costly, time-consuming disputes.
  • Ensure family heirlooms and sentimental items go to the right people.
  • Coordinate with other legal documents. Your will works together with documents like your healthcare proxy and power of attorney to create a full plan for both life and death.

For busy families, an online will platform like Gentreo makes the process quick, easy, and affordable — without sacrificing quality.

Why Online Wills Make Sense  

Online wills have become increasingly popular for good reason:

  • Convenience. No need to make appointments or rearrange your schedule. You can create your will from home — during nap time, after soccer practice, or whenever you have a free moment.
  • Affordability. Traditional estate planning can cost thousands of dollars, which is out of reach for many families. Online wills are far more affordable, while still delivering the legal protection you need.
  • Flexibility. Life changes — and so should your estate plan. Online wills make it easy to update your documents whenever your family grows, moves, or faces a major life event.

But not all online will platforms are created equal. That’s why families trust Gentreo.

Why Families Choose Gentreo

At Gentreo, we understand families — because we are one. Gentreo was created to help families like yours access the legal protections they deserve without unnecessary complexity or expense. Here’s why families across the country choose Gentreo.

1. Comprehensive Family Protection — Beyond Just a Will

Many online will platforms stop at just the will. Gentreo offers so much more. With a single affordable membership, families can create:

  • A Last Will and Testament to outline asset distribution and guardianship.
  • A Health Care Proxy/Advance Directive to ensure medical wishes are honored.
  • A Durable Power of Attorney to name someone to handle financial matters if you’re unable to.
  • A Pet Power of Attorney and Pet Trust to protect your furry family members.
  • Optional Living Trust if your situation calls for one.

With Gentreo, families get a complete estate plan — all in one place.

2. Life Inflection Points — Estate Planning That Grows With You

Your family’s needs change over time — and Gentreo is built to change with you. Our Life Inflection Points feature alerts you when it’s time to update your documents, whether you’re welcoming a new baby, buying a house, or preparing for retirement.

3. Digital Vault for Easy Storage and Sharing

Families need more than just documents — they need a way to safely store them and share them easily with loved ones.

Gentreo’s Digital Vault is a secure, online storage space where your family can:

  • Store all your estate planning documents.
  • Upload important items like insurance policies and family photos.
  • Share specific documents with the right people — your spouse, your children, or even your babysitter in case of emergency.

This sharing feature ensures your family knows where to find critical documents when they need them most — no searching, no stress.

4. Affordable Protection for Families of All Sizes

Raising a family is expensive — and traditional estate planning can feel out of reach. Gentreo offers affordable, transparent pricing that fits family budgets, with no hidden fees and no expensive lawyer bills.

One Gentreo membership covers your whole family, so you can create documents for both parents, update them as life changes, and share them with trusted family members — all for one low cost.

5. Emergency Access for Peace of Mind

Accidents and emergencies happen — and when they do, having immediate access to your documents matters. With Gentreo’s Instant Access Button, you and your chosen family members can access important documents anytime, from anywhere.

This feature is especially valuable for families with children, aging parents, or pets — ensuring that guardianship documents, healthcare proxies, and pet care plans are always just a click away.

6. Special Focus on Pet Families

For many families, pets are just as cherished as children. Gentreo is one of the only platforms that offers dedicated pet estate planning tools, including a Pet Power of Attorney and Pet Trust. Families can ensure pets are cared for if something happens to their human family members — because fur babies deserve protection too.
