A Last Will and Testament (Will) is an extremely important legal document which is your legal declaration about how you want your estate distributing after your death and who you want to deal with your affairs. If you have taken the trouble to write your Will, presumably you want to ensure it is found.

Statistically 70% of the British population die without leaving a valid Will. If you want to ensure your Will is safely stored and its location registered on the National Wills Register, then contact us.

If there is one place you should never, ever, keep an original Will, it is at home. If anything should happen to you in a house fire and your Will went up in smoke with you, then you haven't got a Will.

If your Will is damaged in any way which could cast doubts as to the contents of the Will or raise questions as to why the damage was done, then the courts could throw your Will out as being invalid.

You need to keep your Will in a place that's safe and secure. However, that place should not be so safe and secure that no one can find it when it's needed!

The National Will Safe Document Storage facility is a unique national, central, storage facility for Wills that overcomes all of the problems of safely caring for important legal documents, for a small annual fee.

Your Will is kept in a waterproof wallet in a specialist document archive facility. While it is stored, it is fully insured so that if it is lost or damaged while you are alive, then it will be replaced for you, free of charge.

If your Will is lost or damaged after your death, or its loss or damage only comes to light after your death, then your Executors are insured (for up to £2million) to compensate your estate and its beneficiaries for any losses that they incur as a result of there being no legally valid Will.

You can access your document at any time - free of charge. The document can be returned to your Will writer for updating or directly to you, using an insured delivery service.

When your Executors need to access the documents, once they have provided a death certificate and proof of their identity, your documents will be returned to them - free of charge, using an insured delivery service.

When you or your Executors need to access the Will, simply telephone the contact number and we will arrange the return of your Will to a convenient address.
