If you have lost a loved one, there is no easy way to find out if that person left a Will because there’s no mandatory national register. So, the best thing to do is if you make a Will is to tell your loved ones about it. Generally speaking, if you use a professional, they will ensure that you have a copy and some material that you can leave with your loved one so that they know where the Will is stored and how they can retrieve it when the time is needed.
