Understanding State Probate Fee Structures

Statutory States

States like California and Florida set attorney and executor fees by law. Fees are calculated as a percentage of the gross estate value on a sliding scale.

Reasonable States

Most states allow "reasonable compensation" determined by the court. Fees are typically negotiable and based on complexity, time, and skill required.

Hybrid States

Some states combine approaches, setting maximum statutory limits while allowing reasonable fees below those limits based on estate complexity.

Not Sure Which State Applies?

Probate typically occurs in the state where the deceased was domiciled (had their permanent home). Real property is probated in the state where it's located.
