We had previously used Leverton's for my parents-in-law funerals a few years back. So when my dad passed away recently it was only natural to go to Leverton's once again. Lorna at the Kentish Town branch was lovely and extremely helpful. She made it all very easy for myself and daughter to make all the arrangements. We ordered flowers through them as well and the flowers were beautiful, it was just so much easier to go through one person for all that. Everything went very smoothly, everyone was very attentive and extremely helpful. They also found us a lovely celebrant to preside over the ceremony. I couldn't recommend them highly enough.

Excellent. Caring staff who listen to your needs and provide a highly professional service. I have used Levertons twice now.

My husband had always hoped to be looked after by Levertons; in that, as in so much else, he exercised very good judgement! We were given helpful guidance in planning the funeral, and very considerate and attentive support on the day.

During a time that was extremely difficult for the whole family, Levertons were able to take away all the stress we had with arranging the funeral. Everything asked was received and our loved one was given the best send off he could have had. Lorna in particular was brilliant and everyone who conducted the funeral on the day were faultless. I would 100% recommend their services and couldn’t be more thankful.

The whole process could not have gone more smoothly - everything handles with compassion and understanding

Leverton was recommended by a friend, whom I can't thank enough for the introduction. Having to make contact with a funeral director is probably one of the most difficult things you ever have to do for a loved one. Leverton - and particularly Drew and Mark - made the situation bearable. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

They could not be more perfect. From the initial consultation everything went smoothly. They made all the arrangements including setting up a website devoted to my partner.

Very professional team, Lorna at the Kentish Town branch was great, really kind and thoughtful. Never felt pressured to go for any extras. The organisation was excellent and everything ran without a glitch. I highly recommend the black horses, they really add an air of elegance and dignity and surprisingly good value! Absolutely beautiful.
