Probate solicitor fees

Posts: 11 Forumite
Hello, we are dealing with probate ourselves and have filled in all the forms ourselves. We have gathered all data and would now need some advice from a solicitor at an hourly basis. Would anyone know how much the typical fee would be? We have been quoted 380GBP/hour and find this quite high? If anyone could recommend a probate solicitor that would help with our final questions to avoid paying too much tax. Thank you

The solicitor dealing with our probate is the same price.1

That figure will probably need VAT added as well. Do you have questions that folks here might be able to help with. There are some really knowledgeable people on here.

I have asked my questions here, but it gets quite complex so would rather have someone look at the bigger picture and our specific situation.Bossyboots said:That figure will probably need VAT added as well.
