How long does solicitor keep copies of a will?

Solicitors typically retain copies of wills for a minimum of six to seven years after the testator's death, although some may keep them indefinitely. This is to ensure that the will can be accessed for probate purposes or any potential disputes. Clients can also request copies at any time, and it's advisable for individuals to keep their own copies as well. Always check with the specific solicitor for their policies.
