Probate fees are based on the gross value of the decedent's estate as described in California Probate Code section 10810 which states:

​

4% of the first $100,000;

3% of the next $100,000;

2% of the next $800,000;

1% of the next $9,000,000; and

0.5% of the next $15,000,000.

A reasonable amount is determined by the court for amounts above $25,000,000.

Extraordinary Fees may apply.

​

The client will be responsible for costs such as court costs, court fees, and publication fees where applicable. 

An initial retainer of $2,500.00 to cover these fees will be required.
