Not possible to answer without more details. It depends on what kind of assets have to be dealt with, number of legatees, etc.
If you can provide more details, I could provide at least an estimate.

Ballpark is 5% of gross estate with a minimum.......some charge $750 as the minimum. Then there are court costs which if a simple succession without many people to find or serve with papers usually will not run beyond $300. But as Mr. Maguire says, it depends on many things.
