Did the person who died own a property?
Including any property in their name, even if jointly owned.
Were there savings, investments, or other assets?
Bank accounts, shares, pensions, or valuables above a few thousand pounds.
Was there a will?
Even if you're not sure where it is, knowing one exists can change the process.
This can feel overwhelming, but you don't have to figure it out alone. A probate specialist can walk you through the next steps — no obligation, no pressure.

The estate will likely go through probate, which means the funeral costs can be paid from the estate. You need a probate specialist to make this happen.

— Rhona Devlin (about Lynne)
"From the first phone call with Lynne, we knew we'd made the right decision. She clearly puts herself in her customers' shoes, nothing is too much trouble and takes everything at your pace. Her advice and willingness to let you do what you want is hugely appreciated."
— Jerry H (about Lynne)
"They have made the impossible possible, nothing was too much trouble, I wouldn't have made it through without them. They are a funeral directors like no other and they really care — if they can make it happen they will, and it isn't all about cost, it is a labour of love through such a hard time."

From the first phone call with Lynne, we knew we'd made the right decision to contact Fosters for my mums funeral. The care, compassion and ease of arrangements was superb. Unfortunately we've lost my father & father-in-law over the last 5 years and the experience with Lynne surpassed both previously arranged funerals. She clearly puts herself in her customers shoes, nothing is too much trouble and takes everything at your pace. Her advice and willingness to let you do what you want with other parts of the funeral is hugely appreciated. Thank you Lynne & Carrie for helping us make the best of it for celebrating mum during these strange times. Jerry, Ruth and family

I am very grateful to Lynne and her colleagues for being so kind, supportive and compassionate from the beginning and throughout. Without Lynne, I don’t think that I have the courage and strength to go through this. Lynne accompanied me and assisted me in this most difficult moment in my life. For this, I am so grateful to her and write to recommend her to everyone who needs the service.

A huge massive thanks to Lynne and her team at Ffd in Perth. Right from the first phone call from Lynne to a phone call after the funeral her professional approach and compassion put us at ease.I have dealt with a few funeral directors over the past few years but Fosters was by far the best. Lynne explained everything to us from start to finish with no pressure whatsoever. And myself and both my brothers came out with a smile.A massive thank you Lynne for all you done for us and will highly recommend Fosters in Perth.
