The National Will Register is recommended by key organisations and used by solicitors, will writers, the public, charities, storage facilities and financial institutions to register Wills and search for Wills.

Certainty Will Search service

Certainty Will Search not only searches nationally for registered Wills but also in geographically targeted areas for Wills that have not been registered to help prevent an old Will being used to distribute the estate or when you are unsure if a Will was written.

Every two in ten found Wills

At least 2 in every 10 found Wills using Certainty Will Search results in a Will being located where the estate was presumed intestate (no Will exists) or a later Will being discovered that would supersede the previous Will.

Guides

“”Failing to conduct a Certainty Will Search where one should be made when dealing with an estate could very easily amount to negligence.””

David Webb – Mander Hadley Solicitors

““The Will that was located wasn’t the one I expected that was written around 20 years ago! My father had written a Will in 2017 that the search located, which changed the Executor and Beneficiaries of the estate.”

Mrs Duffy – Public

“”Will Registration is part of our estate planning process and we conduct a Certainty Will Search on every intestacy, when acting as Professional Executor and always advise that a Certainty Will Search is conducted on every estate.””

Faye Lowery – Breens Solicitors

“”It is very important for us that we undertake a Certainty Will Search at the beginning of each Probate matter or intestacy, so that we can establish before taking any other steps that we are dealing with the relevant will or later will.””

Hollie Coates – Coates Solicitors
