Will and Document Storage
Will and Document Storage
Your Will is vitally important in enabling you to leave clear instructions on how your estate Is to be distributed. If anything happens to your Will or if your Executor doesn’t know where to find it, you may as well not have written one.
The original Last Will and Testament is the only document that will be legally accepted and it must be in pristine condition to ensure that there are no complications when following the wishes set out in it.
It is vital that your documents are stored appropriately so that it meets the specific requirements of the Probate Courts when it is presented by your Executor(s).
What happens if a Will has been lost?
Please be aware that if the Will cannot be found, it will be assumed that you deliberately destroyed the Will and you will be deemed to have died intestate.
What can I do if I cannot find the original Will?
The Executors should initially try and locate where the Will was stored (solicitor or Will-Writer) and then make a search of the National Register of Wills
Do SLS Wills and More store Wills?
Yes. We store Wills and legal documents for clients and also for people who have had their Will written and want to keep it safe.
Can I store my Will digitally?
Yes but your Executors will need the original physical Will as this is what is required to admit to probate. A digital copy is only that – a copy. It’s not your LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT.

Couldn't fault Sara. Expert advice (she knows what she's talking about). Very experienced. I chose her because I saw her Google Reviews and checked with the Society of Will Writers who confirmed that she was a member and was on their advisory board. Very affordable. I'm glad my Will is now in place. Will look at LPAs next... Would recommend
Sara was recommended by a family friend who would not use anyone else. We'd been putting off sorting our will for a while but Sara made things very straightforward and easy. I've since recommended Sara to my mum who has used Sara for her will and LPA's. Thank you for all your help with putting these documents in place and giving our family peace of mind for the future.
