The firm applies for the grant. You do the rest of the estate work yourself.

Full estate administration
The firm handles the whole estate, from the grant to distributing it.

|---|---|---|
| £1,850plus VAT | Fixed fee | The firm's words– Full administration. We can work to capped fees (subject to a minimum of £1,850 plus VAT) based on 2% plus VAT of the value of the estate before deducting debts. |
| £5,000plus VAT | Fixed fee | The firm's words– Full administration. So, on an estate of £250,000, our maximum fee (ie the "capped" will be £5,000 plus VAT). |

How to read these prices
Firms publish prices for different pieces of work, so compare the same row across firms rather than the headline. A fee marked "from" is the firm's starting price and the final figure can be higher. A fee marked "estimate" was published against a described example estate rather than as a flat price. Where a firm did not say whether VAT is included, we say so rather than guessing: VAT adds a fifth to the bill.
Prices change. If this page and the firm's own page disagree, the firm's page is right, and we would like to know: hello@probatepanel.co.uk.
