Trying to locate a will can be a key root of anxiety for the family following a death, especially as they often contain a letter of last wishes.  In the UK, there are in excess of 300,000 intestacies every year because a will cannot be found or is presumed never written.  In a recent survey commissioned, 67% of people were unaware where their parents’ wills were located.  The most comprehensive way to conduct a will search is through The National Will Register.  A will search takes around 60 seconds and costs £25.00 plus VAT.
