Ministry of Justice Probate Fee Guidance

Ministry of Justice Probate Fee Guidance

Last spring the Ministry of Justice (MoJ) consulted on a new probate fees scheme, and in February of this year they announced the scheme would be taken forward. The Law Society responded to this consultation in April 2016, and the government's decisions on the proposed scheme were announced in the spring Budget of 2017.

The MoJ has produced guidance as a response to the questions raised so far about the new scheme ahead of its implementation; note that this is not Law Society guidance.
