Vincent Oakley: Probate
Fee Structure
For details of our probate fees and our fees for trust work please click on Probate Fees link in the right hand panel. In summary our fees are calculated by multiplying our hourly rate by the number of hours worked. This calculation usually results in costs for our professional time in the region of 2.5% to 5% of the value of all assets.
In addition various fees have to be paid to external organisations - for example probate court fees (typically £307.50), statutory notice (typically up to £250). There will also be payments to external organisations such as: estate agents, valuers, auctioneers, house clearance agents and conveyancing solicitors. We do not undertake any conveyancing work.
For any specific or special work will will provide a bespoke estimate based on the particular circumstances of the case.
