Probate Fees
​
Kieran Clarke Green offers a fixed fee package for obtaining the Grant of Probate on your behalf. As part of our fixed fee our dedicated and experienced probate solicitor will:
Meet with the Executor(s) or Administrator(s) in order to ascertain the details of the estate and accurately identify the type of probate application you will require
Prepare the Probate Application and any relevant HMRC inheritance tax forms
Make the application to the Probate Court on your behalf
Obtain the Grant of Probate and securely send sealed copies to you or arrange for your collection from the office
​
Our fees
Fixed Fee - £600.00 (£500.00 + £100.00 VAT)
In addition there will be the following fees to pay:-
​​
H M Court Services – Probate Registry Fee £300.00 plus £1.50 per sealed copy of the Grant (1 copy per asset usually)
As this fixed fee package does not include us collecting in any assets of the estate, the Executors/Administrators will be responsible for our costs and expenses. An invoice will be sent to you upon us obtaining the Grant of Probate.
On average, this process is completed within 4-5 months as unfortunately it will usually take up to 16 weeks to receive the Grant of Probate once we have submitted the application to the Probate Registry.
Please note, this fixed fee package only applies to estates in which there is no inheritance tax payable and the Executors do not need to submit a full account to HMRC.
​
Applying for the Grant, collecting and distributing the assets
Our fees are charged on an hourly basis (at £272.00 per hour) and will typically range from £1,500 to £5,000 (plus VAT at 20%) depending upon the individual circumstances of the matter.
