Dear Sir,

Your late father's will had to be granted before a local attorney / public notary, so such document should be registered and available at the National Archive.

As attorneys we are able to find such information with your father's complete name, passport and if you have the name of his attorney that would also help, please let us know the purpose of this search so that we can determine the exact procedure required to obtain the document and our legal fees.

Kind Regards,
