Does anybody have any information on the "normal" lawyer's fees or % basis for the work to be done in handling a very routine estate? The figure 5% has been tossed about, yet I have heard that it is not a fixed either in law or by the Law Society. Assume a $100,000 estate with no real complications and about 3 hours by a senior lawyer and 8 hours by an articling neophyte. . - ----------- Ben Singer Department of Sociology University of Western Ontario Singer@uwo.ca London, Ontario Singer@uwovax.bitnet N6A 5C2 (519) 660-0671 (home) (519) 679-2111 Ext 5137
