Julie at Levertons was absolutely lovely. It's a time when you're not thinking straight but Julie led us through the process of planning Mum's funeral with real patience and humour. This a great local business and I thoroughly recommend them.

Carmel and the team looked after us throughout the whole process. I would definitely put my trust in them again.

Everything was done beautifully I don't see how it could have been done better.

I had never arranged a funeral before and when my brother died I made a leap of faith and chose Leverton & Sons as the funeral directors. I could not have chosen better. From the moment I spoke to Andrew Leverton I knew I was in kind and careful hands. Throughout the process from the collection of my brother from the hospital to the final service I felt supported and guided. Andrew Leverton was always available to speak to me on the phone and gave me thoughtful advice on the contents of the service, the choice of crematorium and recommended an excellent celebrant. The service for my brother was carried out with great dignity and professionalism. I would like to add special thanks to our driver for his kindness. I would recommend Leverton & Sons wholeheartedly.

Deborah was unstintingly thoughtful and compassionate throughout what was a very difficult time, taking care to explain everything clearly and sensitively, and all the other members of her team I spoke to were just as considerate. I really, really cannot recommend Leverton and Sons highly enough.

I genuinely can't put into words how amazing Lorna and the rest of the team have been in my recent experience of arranging my father's funeral. It's the first time in my life that I've really had to engage and deal with death, let alone having to arrange a funeral after the death of a parent. Needless to say, it's been a difficult time. Lorna at the Kentish Town branch has been supportive, compassionate, sensitive, endlessly knowledgeable and, above all, patient with me during this entire time. The result has been an amazing send off for my father - one that he deserved. Funeral directors are one of those services that we hope we won't have to use again, but if the time comes, I won't hesitate to return back to Levertons. Thank you all so much.

Dear lorna, as a family we have been using Levertons for around 30 years. as a family we could not have asked for a better service from you. Politeness, explaining step by step what will happen. Answering all your questions, emails and genuinely always willing to help. I personally wouldn't want to use any other funeral director... Levertons give you everything you need. Thank you Levertons
