If the deceased
had a business or professional practice, the process becomes much more complicated,
as you will have to deal with others with vested interests. You can find
yourself swamped in a web of legal and financial…the list can seem
endless. And the time involved.
Traditionally,
The Fees Can Be Exorbitant
The
main fees - executor, probate, legal and accounting - vary with the size
and complexity of the estate. In general, the larger the estate, the higher
the fees.
Example: Provincial law frequently allows fees up to 5% of the probate value of the
estate.If this amounts to $250,000 (a relatively modest estate today), probate
fees alone can be as high as $12,500!
