Convex advised the Shareholders of The National Will Register Limited, the UK’s leading provider of will registration and will search services, on their sale to Advanced, the UK’s third largest provider of business software and services.
Headquartered in Birmingham, The National Will Register was founded by Nigel McGinnity and Robert Brown in 2006 and is the fastest growing service in the UK for Wills and Probate professionals. The service is utilised by the legal profession, will writers, professional indemnity insurers, government agencies, charities, and the public.
With over 10 million wills registered in the system, the National Will Register exists to ensure that no will is left unknown or untraced at the time it is needed.
Through the Certainty Will Search service, one in five found wills impacts estate administration by superseding a held will or discovering a will not otherwise known.
“Convex not only delivered a superb outcome but also supported us and persevered through the COVID-19 pandemic period to complete the transaction.”
Nigel McGinnity, CEO
