Last year I said 'most' NZ lawyers charged $1500 or more for probate or letters of administration.
That was probably an over-statement.
I've been making further enquiries.

I've been making further enquiries.
Most seem to charge between $1000 and $1500, plus GST and plus disbursements (the $200 High Court filing fee).
I don't know what local firms (Rangiora/Kaiapoi) charge. So please don't take these comments personally. (Feel free to add a comment to tell us what you charge.)
Checketts McKay in Wanaka get the Angel Award so far - estimated $400-600 plus disbursements.
The IMBM [I Must Be Mistaken] Award goes to the 5 firms identified so far (out of the 22 firms surveyed to date) whose estimates were between $2000-$3500 - they were all North Island firms and I am not going to be more specific than that.
The 4 firms (so far) who were less than $1000 were all South Island: in Wanaka (as above), Timaru, Dunedin, and Oamaru.
There may well be others. I don't have time or money to do a comprehensive survey.
In my opinion, anything over $1500 requires a special explanation, if it is only for getting the grant of administration and not for the rest of the estate administration.
So ask first, and remember you have the option of using Kiwilaw's highly competitive online service for $460. (You knew that! Yes! Please tell your friends and family.)
(I have renamed the IMBM Award - previously it was called something else but I realised that might be considered discourteous towards lawyers.)

A beloved pet steer is recovering happily in his North Canterbury paddock after having to be rescued from a river.
Firefighters, neighbours and a local vet joined forces to help Sarah Allan rescue her 1200-kilogram, 6-year-old pet steer, Mitchell, from the Cam River last week.

Would anyone know of someone who supplies LARGE bales of pea straw? My sister is located in Nelson and wants some for a large garden project up there - but is having trouble finding it up there at the moment. She would sort transport etc. from here. At this stage we are just trying to see if anyone has it in larger than usual sized bales?
Thank you

Dog ownership has soared over the past five years, outstripping the growth in people in all the main cities apart from Auckland.
The country is home to more than 560,500 registered dogs – enough for about one in nine to be a proud owner. That's a pooch for roughly every third household.
