Wills & Document Storage
North Wills & Estates maintains for its clients a safe and secure storage facility into which they can store their Wills and other related documents together with property deeds and other important paper based documents.
Custody for Life
The Society can store your Will (and associated documents such as Advance Directives, EPA's and Tenancy Severance deeds) for as little as £24.99 per year. This is a safe and secure storage facility, with the added benefit of quick and easy deposit and retrieval. Wills and associated documents are checked by experienced staff upon receipt for validation as to the correct execution of the documents.
Once your documents have been stored, you will receive a Certificate of Custody, which details not only the Will but also any associated documents lodged with the Custody service. You will also receive for each Will deposited two encapsulated 'Executor' cards, detailing how an Executor may retrieve the documents upon the death of the Testator.
Security
For additional security, documents cannot be retrieved from the store unless two signatures from the testator/testatrix are provided or in the case of a death, submission of the Death Certificate.
The Living Box Service
The Living Box Service
The Living Box service was added to allow the deposit of property deeds or other non -Will related documents to be held in custody. Apart from house deeds, any paper item, such as letters, photographs or policies can be stored within the personalized box, and upon death the box and contents dispatched to any person or address within the UK as stipulated on the registration form.
....and Remember
You must keep your Will in a safe place, where people know where it is, and make sure it cannot be lost or damaged, as this could invalidate its contents. Most high street banks and building societies have safe holding facilities (although they will normally charge you annually for its safekeeping). Alternatively, you may wish to consider North Wills & Estates Storage Facility (above), which ensures its security and whereabouts for those that will need to obtain it ultimately.
Don't delay, protect your assets.
