Along with the majority of lawyers offices, Roest Singh Lawyers does not apply fixed rates. The rate per lawyer varies (from € 135,-- to € 300,-- an hour, excluding VAT and expenses).This rate is common practice in the legal profession. Depending on a number of factors, this rate may be higher or lower. These factors can be the following:
We also use all-in prices. You receive an indication of the total costs in advance.
On collecting claims we use the following percentages for off-court proceedings, except when other price policies apply. These percentages are based on the actually collected amount. We can also provide you with a combination of hourly rate and the commission percentage. A no-cure-no-pay price agreement is another possibility at Roes Singh Lawyers. Point of departure is the fact that the debtor pays the costs.
| Euro | Percentage | |
|---|---|---|
| For the first: | € 2.949,57 | 15% |
| For the additional amount up to: | € 5.899,14 | 10% |
| For the additional amount up to: | € 14.747,86 | 8% |
| For the additional amount up to: | € 58.991,43 | 5% |
| For the additional amount above: | € 58.991,43 | 3% |
If you are not capable of (completely) satisfying the costs of legal assistance, you can still request our services. Certain circumstances allow for financed legal aid. We can file a petition at the legal aid council. For receiving an assignment you will be charged a small contribution (depending on your income) by the legal aid council. You are asked to pay this contribution and the remaining legal aid charges will be carried by the goverment.
