Price List
PRINCIPLES
The assignment fee is determined by the amount and quality of work required for the assignment.
In addition, we charge separately the direct costs and value added tax (VAT). A fee for a particular assignment is based on the interest, nature, extent, and difficulty of an assignment. A fee can be raised if an assignment is carried out during an exceptional time; the circumstances are difficult; the case is very urgent; the responsibilities of the attorney are broader than usual; the assignment is particularly necessary to a client or the interests in a case are particularly significant. We provide an assignment confirmation upon request.
Our office follows The Finnish Bar Association´s code of conduct for lawyers and the guidelines of the Bar Association concerning fees when determining the fee for an assignment.
In addition to the actual assignment fee, we charge separately the direct costs incurred in handling the matter, such as travel expenses. Primarily, the client is responsible for expenses paid to outsiders, such as government expenses.
THE GROUNDS OF THE FEE
A fee for a particular assignment is mainly based on the time used in handling the case. The fee can be agreed to be a fixed price. Travelling time will be charged based on the same principles as fees. The minimum time charge unit is 10 minutes.
