A: I doubt you'll get fee quotes here but if the estate was opened and later closed, you may want to contact the attorney who originally handled the case. If not, contact another attorney and ask how they would structure their fees for this process.

My office typically handles re-openings on a lower flat fee or an hourly rate.
