We are a Will and Trust Registration Service
LocateMyWill.com is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice. We do not write Wills or Trusts. We are a Will and Trust registration service.
Every day countless people die and their relatives have no idea if they had a Will or where it might be found. And if they do find a Will or Trust, how do they know if it’s the latest one?
But if you registered your Will or Trust on our site, your relatives will be able to determine where the Will or Trust can be located and which version is the latest. Each of our clients is given a secure, password protected, encrypted storage area on our site where they can answer numerous questions that we present, as well as provide their family with their thoughts, such as: burial or cremation; type of coffin; choice of cemetery; or where the ashes are to be scattered, religious Funeral or Celebration of Life.
Whether you have a Will or not, your family will need to know about the mortgage or the name of the landlord and when the payment is due; whether you have a public storage space, a Post Office Box, or a safe-deposit box at the bank. Is there a car payment due? What kind of funeral do you want? Any special thoughts for any special people? What happens to your pets? Who needs to be notified?
LocateMyWill.com is not competing with lawyers who write Wills and Trusts. We are a great resource for them. We don’t write Wills or Trusts or practice Estate or Probate law. We are strictly a registration and location site. A law firm that wrote a Will or Trust for a client20 years earlier might first learn of that client’s passing when a relative finds the law firm’s name on the LocateMyWill.com website.
