Fees for a probate lawyer’s services vary substantially depending on the attorney and the case. Ramsey Law, PLLC believes in transparency when it comes to fees. More information about our fees can be found [here]. The firm sends each client a monthly invoice detailing work performed and the balance of the client’s retainer if applicable. Most probate services are billed hourly instead of as a flat fee to ensure the client is only paying for work actually performed. Probate cases generally require an up front retainer that is based on an estimate of total costs, though the total cost could be less or more depending on the situation. Ramsey Law retainers are designed to estimate not only attorney fees, but also court costs and other ancillary costs related to the legal matter. This is done to reduce the risk of big surprise expenses. Ramsey Law offers competitive and reasonable prices because it is ethical to charge reasonable fees.
