Costs
Transparent and Predictable Costs
My fees are based on the legal remuneration of lawyers in Germany (Rechtsanwaltsvergütungsgesetz – RVG). This is a minimum remuneration, depending on the amount at stake in the particular case. You can determine it in advance. Thus, I can basically tell you during the first consultation which costs you may await.
For example, if you have a claim of 300 €, the legal fees are 90,96 € (with VAT) for the extrajudicial activity. If your claim is 1.000 €, then the legal fees will be 159,94 €. For an amount at stake of 10.000 € you’ll have legal fees of 973,66 €.
There are a lot of online calculators to determine this legal remuneration. I recommend the Website of the German Lawyers Association.
In specific cases, I can also propose a time-based remuneration (280 € plus VAT), or a success fee (in accordance with § 4a RVG).
In the matters where I can precisely evaluate the amount of work, I also offer a fixed-price remuneration. For example:
Creation of Company from 500 € (plus VAT)
This offer covers all legal advice before the creation: choice of the legal form, administrative procedures, redaction of the articles of association, coordination of the notarization and further steps until the registration of the company.
Flatrate Legal Service for Companies from 200 € (plus VAT)
After launching your company, you can contact me on every legal issue you may have in your day-to-day business: company law, lease, employment law or business law.
You have 120 minutes a month to ask everything you need, via phone, message, videoconference or e-mail. And of course, you can transfer the minutes left to the next month.
Overindebted Consumers from 400 € (VAT included)
The basic fee is 400 € plus 10 € for each creditor and 100 € for each real property (VAT included).
This package covers all steps until the opening of the insolvency proceedings, including the settlement attempt with all creditors and the application for insolvency at court.
I support you from the very first contact with your creditors until the opening of the proceedings for a fixed price, even if it turns out that your case is more complicated. You can thus rely on the calculated fees.
Only in case the creditors accept a settlement, which would avoid insolvency proceedings, a legal fee for settlement (Einigungsgebühr nach RVG) is to be added to the fixed price.
Insolvency application for companies from 500 € (plus VAT)
The basic fee is 500 € plus 15 € for each creditor and 100 € for each real property (plus VAT).
This package includes the examination of the insolvency situation of your company, as well as the preparation of the insolvency application at the insolvency court.
I support you from the first examination until the opening of insolvency proceedings for a fixed price, even if it turns out that your case is more complicated. You can thus rely on the calculated fees.
This fixed price applies only for small companies, freelancers and self-employed persons.
