Depends on what you had to do - in Mass, the fee has to be "reasonable" in light of the time spent, expertise, amounts involved, etc. We don't have a presumptive percentage amount, like FL. It's an opportunity for reasonable compensation, not a windfall. Keep on mind it's a tax deduction for the trust/estate, which may be disallowed if too piggy.
