Question of 3
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.
That's one less thing to worry about. If anything changes or you'd like a quick confirmation, a specialist can put your mind at rest.

"We were treated with kindness and compassion at all times. On the day of Mum's Funeral it was a comfort to know that Bronwyn and the team had everything organised so we didn't have to worry. A very personal and professional service — we can't recommend you enough."
— Alison (about Bronwyn)
"Her care and compassion was of an absolute high standard. Fantastic listener, adviser and nothing was a bother — always a phone call or message away to answer any questions I had and checking up on how I was keeping."
— Scott Morrow (about Bronwyn)
"Bronwyn and the team at G. McAllister's Funeral Directors were exceptional from start to finish. They treated our family with genuine kindness, compassion, and respect during an incredibly difficult time. Nothing felt rushed, and every detail was handled with care and professionalism."
— Danielle McIntyre (about Bronwyn)
"Bronwyn and her team went above and beyond to stick to his wishes, they helped us arrange the perfect service — it was dignified, humorous and we didn't feel rushed at any stage. A truly excellent service at a time when it was really needed, took the pressure off us at a sad part of our life."
— Amanda Muldoon (about Bronwyn)
"I cannot put into words how much we were supported by all staff not to mention Bronwyn's much needed hugs! On the day of the funeral, Bronwyn and the drivers showed care and compassion and supporting the family through a horrible day."
— Scott Morrow (about Bronwyn)
"I initially contacted another local funeral director, but something didn't feel right. I then spoke with Bronwyn at G McAllisters, and from the very first conversation her empathy and genuine compassion stood out. She went above and beyond to ensure my papa's send-off was perfect, becoming part of our family, 'the Walton's' she called us, in the days leading up to the funeral and even leading the service herself."
— Stacey Henderson (about Bronwyn)
