When should I hire a lawyer for a legal dispute?
Hiring a lawyer can help you understand your rights, assess your chances of success in a dispute, and avoid possible legal mistakes. Even if you think your case is straightforward, legal assistance can significantly increase your chances of a favorable outcome.
How much do legal services cost?

During the first consultation, we provide clients with a clear estimate of the expected costs to ensure complete transparency and help with financial planning. For more information, see the Tariff category.
What is success fee payment?
A success fee is a form of payment for legal services where the lawyer's fee is agreed upon as a percentage of the amount the client receives through a successful case outcome. This payment method is possible in certain types of cases, such as compensation claims.
What should I bring to the first meeting with a lawyer?
We recommend bringing all relevant documents related to your case, such as contracts, correspondence, court notices, and similar. The more information you have, the easier it will be for us to understand your case and provide you with appropriate advice.
How long does a legal procedure take?
The duration of a legal procedure depends on the type of case, its complexity, and court practice. Some cases can be resolved in a few weeks, while others may take months, especially if additional evidence needs to be gathered or witnesses need to be heard.
What are the steps in initiating a legal procedure?
The first step is a consultation with a lawyer to understand your legal options. This is followed by gathering relevant documents and evidence, filing a lawsuit or request with the court, and further monitoring of the procedure through hearings or negotiations.
How can a lawyer help resolve a dispute out of court?
A lawyer can assist in negotiations and mediation, which are alternative ways of resolving disputes outside of court. These processes can be faster, cheaper, and less stressful than court proceedings.
What should I do if I receive a lawsuit or court summons?
If you receive a lawsuit or court summons, it is important to contact a lawyer immediately due to deadlines. They will help you understand the charges, advise you on the next steps, and ensure that all legal deadlines are met
What if I disagree with the court's decision?
If you are not satisfied with the court's decision, it is possible to appeal to a higher court. Your lawyer will help you understand the grounds for the appeal and the process, and advise you on whether there are grounds to initiate an appeal.
What is attorney-client privilege and how do you protect client privacy?
Attorney-client privilege means that a lawyer must maintain the confidentiality of all information received from the client. All data you share with us remains protected and confidential and will never be shared without your consent.
Do I need to come to the office, or is online consultation via email and other channels possible?
You do not necessarily need to come to the office. We offer the option of online consultations via email, phone, video calls, or other digital channels. This option allows for faster and more convenient communication, especially if you are unable to visit our office in person.
