Remuneration

We charge a fee for our legal services. However, to get to know each other sufficiently and to be able then to decide that we want to deal with your legal issues together, do not hesitate to contact us at any time or leave a message here. The initial phone consultation as well as the first hour at the introductory meeting is free of charge.

Legal services are then provided by default on a contractual hourly basis. In such cases, our clients always receive a detailed overview of the time spent together with the invoice.

In a situation where the scope of work on a specific case can be estimated sufficiently in advance, a fixed remuneration can be agreed for the services provided.

In case of long-term cooperation, we agree with our clients on a monthly lump sum, which gives the client a certain amount of legal services at a discounted rate. Thus, the client has a stable monthly legal service cost and avoids fluctuations that may occur with an hourly rate billing.

The basic legal regulation regulating the remuneration of lawyers is Act no. 85/1996 Coll., on the Legal Profession, as amended, which in Section 22 paragraph 3 refers to the Ministry of Justice Decree no. 177/1996 Coll., on remuneration and compensation of lawyers for the provision of legal services (lawyers fee), as amended. The lawyer’s fee states that a lawyer’s remuneration for providing legal services is governed by the contract with the client (so-called ‟contractual fee”). If there is no contract between lawyer and client, the lawyer’s remuneration will be decided using the provisions of the lawyer’s fee on a non-contractual fee (so-called ‟non-contractual fee”).

The law firm hereby informs the client that on 5 February 2016 the Czech Bar Association was authorized by the Ministry of Industry and Trade of the Czech Republic to settle consumer disputes between a lawyer and a consumer from Legal Services Agreements (based on Act No. 634/1992 Coll., on Consumer Protection, as amended). The website of this authorized entity is www.cak.cz.
