This IS overcharging - $2000 or $2500 PLUS 'disbursements' - for straight-forward probate? No....

Director / lawyer from Kiwilaw

Someone elsewhere in New Zealand (whose identity or locality I shall not disclose) told me of two law firms who quoted $2000 and $2500 respectively, plus disbursements, for an application for probate.

I can confirm that there was nothing complicated about the application. It fell easily within my standard application service for $400.

That is price gouging. There is no basis for it. None. (And yes, you may quote me.)

It's not just dogs and cats that get abandoned as the festive season approaches – chickens are also being dumped on roadsides, fords and reserves across North Canterbury.

North Canterbury Chicken Rescue founder Manda Gill says the volunteer group receives the most complaints about abandoned chickens between November and March.

People abandon them for various reasons, but mainly because the chicks turn out to be roosters.

"I think everything deserves a fair shot at life," she says.
