Shires handled the funeral arrangements for my wife in an exemplary professional manner. They were sensitive and helpful, arranged everything we asked for, were very communicative, and were aware of cost considerations.

We didn't want a conventional day for our father, and Shires were totally brilliant and open to our slightly mad ideas! Really accomodating. Lisa, Donna and Sally helped us through the process and on the day everything worked like clockwork. Dad would have been thrilled with our unconventional plans, and the way the day progressed. Thanks to everyone, would highly recommend Shires as a company.

There's nothing you need to do right now. A quick check can help you understand what to expect later.

Often comes up when:

  • Banks ask for paperwork
  • Property is involved
  • Uncertainty about a will
