schedule for attorneys is found at Probate Code Section 10810 and for executors is found
at Probate Code Section 10800 it can be a complicated formula. For ease of approximation,
a simplified formula can be used. The formula can be applied to determine the probate cost
on estates between $100,000 and $1 million.&nbsp; The formula is determined by multiplying
the gross estate by 2% and then adding $1150.&nbsp; This result would equal the statutory
attorney fee.&nbsp; The executor is also entitled to this same fee; therefore, the formula
is written this way:&nbsp; [(gross estate value x 2%) plus $1150] x 2 = approximate
probate cost. </font></td>
