Generally, in North Carolina, an attorney is compensated in one of two ways for estate administration services: 

1. an attorney may assume the role of executor wherein the named executor in the will renounces his or her right; in this case, then payment would be in the form of executor fees.

2. an attorney may be hired to assist the executor in fulfilling the executor's duties; in this case, payment is based on a reasonable hourly fee depending on the complexity of the estate.

The estates division typically must approve attorney fees.
