FLAT RATE
FEES
In an effort to provide affordable and predictable legal services, Williamson Law is proud to offer competitive flat rate fees for a variety of services including summary advice, wills & estates, and real estate transactions. For legal services that cannot be billed at a flat rate, we strive to provide reasonable rates based on the actual work done on the file. Access to justice is extremely important to us. We're here to work with you.

FEES
WILLS & ESTATES
Our flat rate wills and estates legal fees include the use of our modern estate questionnaires, a pre-drafting conference once we review your questionnaire to ensure we understand your intentions, drafting your legal documents (will, enduring power of attorney, and/or personal directive), and a final meeting to review, explain, and sign the documents. Our flat rate fees work for most situations. However, if the services you're looking for don't fit into our flat rate fee structure, we can chat about it before hand and will try to make something work.
REAL ESTATE
Our team takes the time to make sure you know the legal implications of your deal. We are pleased to provide a degree of certainty for your next real estate transaction. We offer competitive, flat rate legal fees for real estate transactions. Other lawyers bill lawyers fees and add disbursements and other costs at the end. We don't. Our clients deserve transparency. We're good at what we do and we are accountable for the fees that we bill. That's why we offer flat rate fees on real estate. We're also equipped to deal with any problems that may arise.
PLEASE NOTE: The provincial government has imposed increases to Land Titles fees as of January 1, 2020. Additional increases have been implemented as of July 2021. While we strive to keep our fees as low as possible, the new fee guide reflects the increased fees imposed by the government and Alberta Land Titles.
Your flat rate legal fee includes the following:
-
Regular disbursements*
-
File administration
-
Courier charges in Calgary**
-
Land title fees to register one title and one mortgage

NOTE: While we make effort to accurately predict legal fees for real property transactions, some items, processes, fees, and/or disbursements may be further required and are not included in our flat fee. Fees are subject to change without notice.
FLAT RATE FEES FOR REAL ESTATE TRANSACTIONS
