How much does probate cost in Missouri?

In Missouri, the probate code sets a statutory fee for attorney’s and personal representatives (executor) for the administration of a decedent’s estate. Additionally, the attorney and personal representative may request and be permitted by the court to receive an amount above this standard fee if extraordinary services are performed. The following fees are only calculated on the value of property subject to probate administration. Fees may vary depending on complexity and time required to complete the probate process. Please use the calculator below to estimate Probate attorney’s fees and executor commissions for the administration.
