We offer various levels of service; which one you choose will depend on how much work you want us to do and how much you feel you can do on your own. The fees for our work will depend on the level of service you choose and range from fixed fee to a percentage of the value of the estate
We will not charge any fees until we have talked with you about what level of service you need and want and told you how much our fees are likely to be.
