Grant of probate only
The firm applies for the grant. You do the rest of the estate work yourself.
| Price | How it is charged | What the firm published |
|---|---|---|
| £280 an hourplus VAT | Hourly rate | The firm's wordsOur charges for a basic estate applying for the grant, collecting and distributing the assets. We anticipate this will take between 15 to 20 hours work at our hourly rates of £280 plus VAT for our experienced Probate Manager (supervised by a Partner of the firm) and £340 plus VAT for a Partner. |
This firm publishes no fixed probate fee, so the final cost depends on the hours the work takes. Ask for an estimate in writing before you instruct.

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.
