What Probate Actually Costs in Sacramento County
California probate fees are set by statute — and they're based on the gross value of your estate, not your equity. That means a $1.2M home with a $700K mortgage generates over $28,000 in mandatory attorney and executor fees. Add court costs, and the total often exceeds $35,000. The process takes 12–18 months.
A Summerall Law trust package costs a fraction of that — and eliminates probate entirely for most families.
