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.
Many families don't have all the information straight away — that's completely normal. A quick chat with a specialist can help you understand what applies to your situation.

"Dealing with the loss of my nan is the hardest thing I have had to deal with. Matthew helped me through every step of arranging nan's funeral and was so professional and courteous throughout. I am so glad to have used P Boast and highly recommend them."
— Holly Whelan (about Matthew)
"I sat outside Boasts for a while steering myself to go in but soon as I met Steve he put me at ease... When I mentioned I had another appointment that afternoon he actively encouraged me to keep it saying it was a good idea to visit another Funeral Director and I thought that in itself proved to me I was dealing with someone who was very honest and fair... I feel I came to rely on him to such an extent that I could not have got through it without him."
— Wendy Spencer (about Steve)
