What your fixed fee covers:
Most people searching probate costs have been quoted a percentage of the estate or an open-ended hourly rate. Ade does not work that way. You get a fixed fee, set against the size and complexity of the estate: from £895 for the grant-only service, or from £1,880 for full estate administration. Either way you see the full figure before anything starts. No meter running, no bill that grows as the months pass.
- Grant of probate application from start to issue
- Inheritance tax forms and HMRC correspondence
- Asset identification, valuation, and collection
- Debt settlement from the estate
- Final estate accounts and distribution
- Letters of administration where there is no will

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about what probate costs.
How much does probate cost?
Fixed fees start from £1,880 and depend on the size and complexity of the estate, not the number of hours spent. You see the full quote before any work begins. There are no hourly rates and no surprise add-ons.
Why do some probate quotes look cheaper at first?
Percentage-of-estate and hourly quotes often look small until the estate is valued or the hours add up. A fixed fee tells you the real cost on day one, so you can compare it properly against a quote that can move.
What makes the fee go up or down?
The size of the estate, the number and type of assets, whether inheritance tax applies, and whether there is a valid will. Ade reviews your situation on the callback and gives you the single figure for your case, with no obligation to proceed.
