Frequently asked questions
How much do probate solicitors in St Davids charge?
Fees are set by each firm and vary with the work involved. Compare fixed fees side by side on Compare Legal, check what each quote includes, and make sure VAT and disbursements are in the total before you choose.
Do I always need probate?
Not always. Small estates, and assets held jointly that pass automatically to the survivor, may not need it. Banks and other holders set their own limits, so check with each one before you apply.
What should a quote include?
The firm's own fee, VAT, and disbursements: the costs the firm pays for you, such as searches, registration fees or court fees. Ask whether the fee is fixed and what would make it go up.
