Secure Will Storage – Protect Your Will for the Future
Why Proper Will Storage is Essential
Once you’ve created a legally binding will, storing it securely is just as important as writing it. A will is a critical legal document, and if it is lost, damaged, or stolen, your wishes may not be carried out as intended.
Many people mistakenly store their wills at home, in a safe, or with a solicitor—however, these options carry risks. A will can be misplaced, destroyed by fire or flood, or even accidentally thrown away. Additionally, family members may not know where to find the original document when needed, leading to unnecessary delays and legal complications.
At Callaghan Wills and Estate Planning, we provide professional will storage services that ensure your will is kept safe, registered, and easily accessible to your executors when the time comes.
We offer face-to-face will storage consultations in Northampton, Milton Keynes, and Bedford, or remote consultations via phone or Zoom video calls for clients across the UK. No matter where you are, our secure storage solutions give you peace of mind knowing your will is fully protected.
The Risks of Keeping a Will at Home
Many people believe that keeping their will in a personal safe, drawer, or filing cabinet is sufficient. However, this comes with several risks:
🔴 Loss or Accidental Damage – Fires, floods, or general misplacement can cause permanent damage.
🔴 Unauthorised Access or Tampering – A will stored at home may be altered, lost, or even deliberately destroyed.
🔴 Legal Disputes & Probate Delays – If the original document cannot be found, your estate may face lengthy and expensive legal complications.
By choosing secure, professional will storage, you remove these risks and ensure that your will is protected until it is needed.
