5 percent
The executor's fee is typically set by law. If the fee is set at 1% (or higher), they certainly can.
In addition to all out-of-pocket expenses in managing and settling the estate, Personal Representatives (executors) generally earn a fee of about 2% of the probate estate for their work.

As a general rule, executor compensation is in addition to fees. For example, if the executor pays $400,000 in lawyers' fees, as an expense of the estate, it has no impact on the claim for a percentage as a fee. Many family executors or administrators waive any fee and consider it a privilege to assist in interpreting the intent of the decedent.
