FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
The following is a selection of frequently asked questions. For further information, please use our contact form or the chat module at the bottom of the page.
What is the initial consultation?
The initial consultation enables your lawyer to examine the circumstances of your matter and highlight any legal issues that may arise.
During this meeting, your lawyer will consult all the relevant documents you might have in hands which are related to your case to complete his analysis (contract(s), invoice(s), mail(s) between the various parties involved, accounting documents, witness statements, affidavits, bailiff's reports, etc.).
If the information provided is sufficient, a response may be given to you at the end of this initial consultation.
What happens after this initial consultation?
Sometimes it is difficult to resolve all the outstanding issues of a case at the end of a single consultation. Because a case is so complex, we need to request additional documents and/or information from third parties (administrative authorities, public registers, bailiffs' summonses) or to cross-check information in our professional databases.
At this stage, your lawyer will give you a roadmap outlining all the actions to be taken and the strategy to be followed in order to reach a solution.
All the foreseeable steps will be detailed in a fee agreement, which will give you an estimated time to carry out the formalities (drafting of deeds, compulsory formalities, forensic, court referrals, pleadings, enforcement of judgement).
Is the initial consultation charged?
Should you decide to entrust your case to us, your initial consultation will automatically be subject to a refund on your first invoice. However, if the initial consultation is a one-off and does not involve any sequel, the cost of the initial consultation will be set at the preferential flat rate of €69,00 excluding VAT.
How much does a lawyer cost?
Fees charged by MUSE AVOCATS lawyers are usually billed on a time-spent basis.
However, depending on each specific case, its complexity and what is at stake, how many steps need to be taken and the client's financial resources, a tailor-made fixed fee may be set so your budget is under control.
For more detail, please check the Services and fees page.
Can I pay in instalments?
Yes, our online payment service provider Stripe® allows you to pay your fees in instalments, free of charge.
Are your fees covered by legal expenses insurance?
