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.

— Andrew Roberts
"Julie and Josh couldn't do enough for us after the loss of my dad. They kept checking in with us and gave us so much help to give my dad the best send off he deserved. Can't thank you enough."
— Diane Seddon (about Julie)
"Beth was wonderful. She took the time to understand who we are and what we needed for our mum. We wanted a true Celebration of Life to reflect the bright, vivacious and unconventional woman she was, and Beth helped us realise that. From start to finish, we felt reassured that mum was being very well cared for."
— angelique stephenson (about Beth)
"Angie has been wonderful, supportive, friendly, helpful and kind. She made an incredibly difficult time smoother for me and I will never forget her support on the day. I have sadly lost both my Mum and Dad, and Barringtons have been amazing both times."
— jessica barr (about Angie)
"Angie came to the house to make arrangements which really helped my Dad. At no point was there any attempt to oversell or have unnecessary expense. On the day, the attention to detail and the dignity and compassion shown by all the staff was exceptional. Thank you for making a difficult time a little bit easier."
— Sandra Lamb (about Angie)
"Julie is an absolute earth angel made for this job. Julie went above and beyond — her dedication, care, respect and compassion was just outstanding. Losing our beautiful mum crushed myself and my brothers. Julie helped us and made everything run smoothly. We are truly blessed to have had Julie alongside us as we prepared and then laid our amazing mother to rest. The lady is worth her weight in gold."
— Tina Tudhope (about Julie)

Barringtons are a credit to their profession. Having never arranged a funeral before their expertise, kindness and compassion were a massive help. Angie and the team helped arrange my Mums service and were so supportive every step of the way. Nothing was too much trouble, at no point was there any attempt to oversell or have unnecessary expense. Angie came to the house to make arrangements which really helped my Dad and on the day the cars, attention to detail and the dignity and compassion shown by all the staff was exceptional. Thank you for making a difficult time a little bit easier.
