Our service allows loved ones, executors, and legal representatives to verify whether a will has been registered and ensure nothing has been overlooked.
How It Works
Start Your Search Today
01
Submit a Search
Families, executors, or authorized individuals can submit a secure online search request.
You will provide information about the deceased and your relationship to them so we can conduct a thorough search of the registry.
02
Search Certificate
Once your request has been processed, we issue a Search Certificate confirming that the registry was checked.
This certificate can provide important documentation for estate administration, demonstrating that reasonable efforts were made to locate a will.
03
Will
Match
If a registered will matches the information submitted in your search:
The law firm that registered the will is notified.
The law firm may then contact the searcher if the searcher is someone they are legally permitted to share that information with.
