The first Wills & Securities Register of Australia was opened in the ANZ Bank Brighton in 1995 as a unique venture to guard against lost and stolen documents and the difficulties encountered by the public when their solicitor dies or retires or changes from one firm to another and also when public trustee companies change their name or are “taken over” by another company or go into liquidation.

Will Makers Pty Ltd moved to the city for the convenience of clients and so that it would be available in the daytime on normal weekdays from 9-00 a.m. to 5-00 p.m. The first City office (and now ONE of TWO City Offices) is at 345 King William Street but one needs to phone first to arrange for a withdrawal or deposit of a document.

You can make arrangements by ringing Peter Pearce at (08) 8322 2778 and the Registrar will be able to attend to any matters for old or new clients.

The modest amount of $20 per person as an establishment fee with this Company includes the lodgement of documents and (when the normal standard Contract is signed) for the other benefits which are set out in the page available from this page titled “WHO TO BE EXECUTORS”.

When a Will is made through Will Makers Pty Ltd a Form of Notification of Change of Address is supplied to the client and “if and when” the client changes address that Form is filled in with the new address so that our records are kept up to date.

After lodgement of a Will etc the client receives a written letter of acknowledgement “confirming that the Original Will is retained in the Wills & Securities Register of Australia.

Act now to see that all aspects of your Wills are safely attended to for your security.
