National Will Register.com is powered
by Willdata which was founded in 2003 by Jon Lucas. He saw at
first hand the need for the location of Wills to be registered
following the death of a relation and witnessing the additional
heartache and difficulty that the family went through to locate
the Will. To alleviate this problem, he founded Willdata.info
as a National Will Registration and Search facility which is
now considered as the most comprehensive UK National Will Register
holding registrations for Wills dating as far back as the early
1900's.
So how can we help you?
You can register the location of your own Will or submit a Search
Request for the location of a 'lost' Will using our service.
Registering your own Will - To protect your loved ones
from the distress caused by a 'lost' or 'missing' Will you should
register it's location on the National Will Register operated
by Willdata.
Once the simple Will
Registration Form has been submitted to Willdata, the details
are held securely on our database and we will send you written
confirmation that the process is complete. This normally takes
about 14 days. We do not store the Will itself, we just record
the location of it so it can be found when it is needed.
Search for a 'lost' Will - Complete a simple Search
Request Form online with as many details about the missing
Will as you can.
We do not store Wills or copies of Wills nor do we hold any
information relating to any of the contents of a Will, but we
do find missing or lost Wills.
We will process a comprehensive search of the Wills already registered
with us and if your Search is successful we will tell you the last
registered location of the Will. You can then retrieve it and have
peace of mind in knowing that the wishes of your loved one will be
carried out as they intended. Only the Executors of a Will, a legal
professional with appropriate authority, or the person whose Will
it is can retrieve a Will.
Our online Search Service usually takes a few days to complete but
if you are submitting a search by post you should allow 28 days. Tracing
a Solicitor or Will Writer may take longer but we will advise you
of our progress throughout.
Should the Will not be registered with Willdata, we will add
the missing Will to our Missing
Wills Lists which can be accessed by every single Bank,
Solicitor, Will Writer, Estate Planner and Storage Company in
the UK. We will also re-run your Search free of charge as we
receive Archive Registrations from our Registrars.
Submitting a search request for a Will also entitles you to
register the location of your own Will, and your partner's Will,
free of charge. We believe that once you have experienced the
distress that can be caused by a 'lost' Will you will not want
your loved ones to experience the same.
Our service is successful because we are understanding and thorough,
we don't have expensive fee earners to support and we put you,
our customers, first.
"Thank you
so much for
all your efforts.
We really do
appreciate all the
hard work that has
been done by you."
