Our Fees

Our fees are based on time and determined by the complexity of work required. However, the cost is limited to 1.5% of the Estate’s gross value (2% in the case of foreign assets). This ‘fee capping’ informs you of the job’s maximum cost and provides us with an incentive to complete the work efficiently, acquire Probate, and transfer the Estate’s assets as quickly as possible.
