Deciding how to do probate


There are a range of options available, and it is important to take time to decide which method is right for you.

To help you make this decision you may want to ask for information about how much work you will have to do, how the service is provided and how much it is going to cost. Any professional fees will be charged to the estate, but the fees can be charged in different ways. These include a percentage of the estate, charges for specific tasks that need to be done and perhaps also an hourly rate. Although some estates can be dealt with in about 6-9 months, it can take significantly longer, often a year or more, if the estate is at all complex and if there is a property to be sold. 

Please see the menu on the left hand side of the page to get more information about the different choices available to you or call us on 0800 634 0101 if you prefer and we can explain them.
