Frequently Asked Questions

Do solicitors in Abergavenny charge VAT on top of their fees?

Yes, most solicitors add VAT (20%) to professional fees and disbursements. Always confirm whether quoted prices include or exclude VAT. Some fixed-fee quotes may be inclusive, whilst hourly rates are typically quoted before VAT.

What's included in a conveyancing fee?

Conveyancing fees typically cover legal work such as reviewing contracts, conducting searches, arranging surveys, and managing the exchange and completion. Disbursements—including Land Registry fees, local authority searches, and survey costs—are charged separately and vary by property value and location.

Can I get a fixed fee for my legal matter?

Many Abergavenny solicitors offer fixed fees for straightforward matters like wills, simple conveyancing, and uncontested divorces. Complex cases, commercial disputes, or contested litigation typically use hourly billing. Always ask your solicitor whether a fixed fee is available for your specific needs.

How long does probate and estate administration take?

Probate typically takes 6–12 months, though straightforward estates may complete faster. Solicitor fees are often charged as a percentage of estate value (typically 2–5%) or a fixed fee. Complex estates with disputes or tax complications will take longer and cost more.
