The Probate Bureau Ltd has always worked closely with the independent funeral sector and is a member of both the National Association of Funeral Directors and the National Society of Allied and Independent Funeral Directors. A large number of funeral parlours currently hold our probate leaflets and guides and recommend clients who are in need of advice to us.

Unfortunately, after the departure last summer of a long-standing employee who was responsible for maintaining links with funeral directors, we were unable to offer the same regular service to the funeral parlours as we had done; since the company was founded over 10 years ago. However, after a company reorganisation, we now have two new Account Managers who are going out to visit funeral directors as frequently as possible.

Our Sales & Marketing Director, David Spears, is now responsible for visiting funeral directors around South-East England and East Anglia. Whereas Charlotte Cumbicus-Gunn, one of our experienced Probate Administrators, has expanded her role to include maintaining relationships with funeral parlours in the Greater London area.

If you are a funeral director in either of the above mentioned areas, you should receive a visit within the next few weeks, if you haven’t already. If you require any of our leaflets or have any probate related questions in the meantime, please call us on our freephone number 0800 028 2837 or contact us through the website.

For members of the public who are searching for an independent funeral director in their area, please see our website for a comprehensive list of funeral parlours by area.
