Find Help · California
Funeral homes, hospice and palliative care, grief counselors, and financial advisors serving California. Before a listing appears here, we check the provider's phone, business address, and working website against the provider's own site, and MORTL writes the standard listing description from it. Sponsored Pro and Premium cards may include a provider-written bio.
Provider listings aren’t recommendations, endorsements, guarantees, or referrals. We don’t verify licenses, disciplinary history, availability, or quality. Check those directly before hiring.
Ask a funeral home about these before you sign. They set what has to happen, and when, no matter who you hire.
Verified in California so far: 541 financial advisors, 5 funeral homes, 3 grief counselors.
Every figure here comes from MORTL's California guide, which cites the statute or the state agency behind it. Read the California guide for the rest of it: the cremation and burial rules in full, probate and the small-estate threshold, who inherits when there's no will, advance directives, and the estate tax.
If someone has already died, what to do first in California is the order to work in. It's free and it always will be.

About This Directory
Providers come from public sources and provider submissions. Before a listing goes live, MORTL checks the provider's phone, business address, and working website. MORTL writes standard listing descriptions from that site. Sponsored Pro and Premium cards may include a provider-written bio. A provider without a working website isn’t listed.
A listing isn’t a recommendation, endorsement, guarantee, or referral.
MORTL doesn’t verify licenses, disciplinary history, availability, or quality of service. Provider information can change after a listing is added.
Before hiring any provider, check their license with the state licensing board or professional authority, get pricing in writing, and confirm availability directly.
Know Someone Good?
Worked with a funeral home, grief counselor, hospice, financial advisor, or death doula worth finding? Tell us who they are. It takes a minute and it's free.
Every suggestion gets the same check as the rest of the directory: we confirm the provider's phone and address against their own website before anything is listed.
Death doulas aren’t in the directory because no verifiable registry exists to check them against. You can still suggest one; submissions stay open.
For Providers
MORTL readers are planning ahead: people getting their wills, directives, and funeral wishes in order before a crisis. Listing here puts you in front of them before they need you.
A standard listing in the MORTL directory costs nothing, now or later. We list funeral directors, grief counselors, financial advisors, and hospice providers. Founding providers get in before the category fills up.
Death doulas can apply, but don’t appear in the directory yet: no verifiable registry exists to check a doula listing against.
A listing in the MORTL directory isn’t a recommendation, endorsement, guarantee, or referral. Before hiring any provider, verify credentials directly with the appropriate state licensing board.
Want paid placement? A standard listing stays free. Approved Featured plans add labeled sponsored placement and tier-specific card features. Compare Featured plans →
