Introduction<\/u><\/strong>\u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/h4>\n

Probate is the court-supervised process of gathering a deceased person\u2019s assets, paying debts and taxes and distributing what is left to those who are named as inheritors, in the Will.<\/p>\n

Uncontested probate is where there is no dispute over the Will and distribution of assets.<\/p>\n

Below we provide you with information on our Legal Fees, disbursements and the length of time it will take to complete your matter.<\/p>\n

Legal Fees and Disbursements\u00a0<\/u><\/strong><\/h4>\n

Legal Fees are the amount you will be required to pay for all the work performed by us in actioning your instructions from commencement of your case to conclusion.<\/p>\n

VAT will be payable on our fees and some disbursements, currently 20%, and we will clearly confirm which disbursements carry VAT in our formal quotation or as we advise you to incur them.<\/p>\n

If your matter becomes complex (see below) our fees may increase further and we will notify you in advance of any increased costs.<\/p>\n

Grant and Administration of an Estate <\/u><\/strong><\/h4>\n

At the beginning of each new matter we aim to provide you with a clear estimate of the Firm\u2019s fees taking into account the different variables that arise in each estate.<\/p>\n

Often clients will utilise the Firm\u2019s services for the work required up to the point at which the Grant of Representation is obtained from the Court before assuming the administration themselves. Alternatively, we can be instructed to deal with the entire administration process from start to finish.<\/p>\n
