This area covers particularly intricate charging for wills, trusts and probate work where standard fees do not reflect the complexity of the matter. A solicitor in this field helps with identifying and negotiating appropriate remuneration for complicated administrations, such as multiple beneficiaries, disputed executorship, significant Inheritance Tax considerations, or bespoke trust structures. They draft or review fee arrangements, ensure compliance with regulatory expectations, and advise on potential risk to executors and beneficiaries. It may influence whether a matter is taxed as a fixed or time-based charge.
What a solicitor handles in these matters
The solicitor explains the specific provisions and structures that generate complexity—like complex estates, discretionary trusts, and substantial IHT planning—and what legal controls or schemes apply to fees, including regulatory accountability and protected client accounts.
