FEES

Fees are agreed between the lawyer and the client, in a fee agreement signed at the first appointment. To determine fees, the firm uses criteria common to the profession: the client's financial situation, the complexity of the case, the costs incurred, the lawyer's reputation, and the time devoted to the matter. Depending on the assignment, remuneration may be a fixed fee, an hourly rate, or a base fee supplemented by a result-based component. For real estate sales, regulated seizure costs are added, advanced by the pursuing creditor and reimbursed by the successful bidder.
