Legal protection insurance
The legal protection insurance is a contract which enables the payment of Lawyers’ fees, entirely or partially, according to a contractually defined scale.
This legal protection insurance is sometimes automatically included in another insurance contract (car or home insurance for instance): contact your insurance company for further information about it.
-
Legal aid
According to the State funds, the latter may grant you a legal aid to cover your lawyer’s fees; the conditions and the file to fill-in are available on the Internet.
Nevertheless, it is possible that your lawyer may refuse to be financed by legal aid if it does not provide sufficient compensation for the work necessary to deal effectively with your case.
-
Fees
If you can’t benefit from these two previously enumerated solutions, the fees are determined according to different modalities:
– According to the time spent:
Hourly rate of 200 euros all tax included (166.66 tax excluded)
– Hourly fixed rate
Of course, the fees presentation is for indicative purpose only and doesn’t take into account the particular situations that we take care to define during the consultation.
Whatever the case might be, a fee agreement will be signed before any procedure is started: you will therefore be informed of the exact cost of the procedure.
