Prices for Fixed Fees on Complex Estates

Not all estates are simple, multiple assets or beneficiaries can make things more complex. In such cases, we may offer a bespoke fixed fee based on the work involved. For example, managing one account with a large amount is simpler than handling multiple accounts totalling the same amount or less. Contact us for a bespoke quote. 

Disbursements

Disbursements are third-party costs (e.g. court fees) paid in addition to our fees. We manage these payments for a smoother process.
