In California, Probate Fees are governed by Probate Code section 10810. Attorneys and Executors/Administrators are each compensated in accordance with the sliding scale provided by the Probate Code. As of 2023, the median home value in California is $751,330.00. Pursuant to California's statutory attorney's fee and administrator's fee schedule, administering such a home would amount to $36,053.20 plus costs and fees. This total does not account for additional attorney and administrator fees due to financial and investment accounts held by the individual.
