Professionals in England and Wales now have a National Will Register (Sept 2008)
Friday, April 24th, 2009
A national will register is not a new idea. Lack of technology and funding has previously hampered the implementation of an effective will register.
Developed over a two-year period, Certainty.co.uk has invested in excess of £1.5 million to provide a truly innovative national will register. Extensive research has ensured that the register complies with legal requirements. Certainty is also Basel Convention compliant and exceeds ARERT’s specification.
Certainty.co.uk is exclusively for the use of solicitors, STEP members and the general public. Unregulated ‘will writers’ are not eligible to use the register.
Certainty’s chairman, Kevin Martin, Law Society President 2005/6 holds the firm belief that Certainty provides a definitive solution supported by advanced technological investment and regular consultations with the most senior and experienced legal professionals.
Kevin says, “The historical need to set up a will register has been met by Certainty. The solution to the chronic problem of will registration has arrived for the first time. The Certainty will register has gone to extreme lengths to ensure in terms of ease of use, cost, and the marketing opportunities it creates for Solicitors and STEP members that it is a definitive and all encompassing solution. This world leading voluntary register certainly ticks all the boxes. It has been developed, funded, meets criteria, has national and international capabilities and is here now.”
Certainty is rolling out to the profession by postcode and has been extremely well received – this is demonstrated by the rapid uptake of members and users. If you are interested in Certainty and would like to know more contact 0845 408 0404 or email: info@certainty.co.uk
