The fees for uncontested Probate vary depending on:-

There are two different ways in which we charge for uncontested probate matters, both of which will be discussed at our free initial 15 minute consultation with you.  The first, and most popular, is a fixed fee of 2% of the gross value of the estate.  The second is a time value element based on the hourly rate of both the fee-earner and supervising fee-earner dealing with the estate (currently £170-220 plus VAT) together with a fee of 1.25% of the gross value of the estate.

In addition to the above the following disbursements may also be required and will incur further costs.  They may include:

• The Probate Court fee, as well as a small additional fee for each official sealed copy of the Grant of Probate;
  
• The legal advertising fee;
  
• Bankruptcy search fees for all personal representatives and beneficiaries;
  
• HM Land Registry fees; and
  
• Bank charges.
