The lawsuit of 1 0,000 yuan is really small. If there is a charge, most lawyers who take over should set the price at around 1000 yuan.
So what do lawyers charge?
First, freestyle, lawyers set their own prices and charge as much as they want.
At present, many places have abolished the guidance price of lawyers' fees, and lawyers can set their own fees, so different lawyers, different regions and different law firms charge different fees. Of course, every law firm will have its own lawyer fees, but in the same law firm, different lawyers also have different fees.
Second, different charging methods affect the charging price.
(1) Charge by the hour, which is common in non-litigation cases and also applicable to consulting cases;
(2) Piece-by-piece charging, ordinary civil cases, economic and administrative cases, cases that do not involve property or involve a small amount of subject matter, such as infringement of neighboring rights and administrative litigation. , should be based on the difficulty of the case and the workload of comprehensive consideration; The ten thousand yuan lawsuit in the title is such a case.
(3) Charge in proportion to the target amount. This kind of situation is more common, and ladder charges are generally implemented. Court legal fees are also ladder charges, which are common in civil and commercial cases, such as disputes over property distribution between husband and wife, disputes over property inheritance, intellectual property disputes, etc.
(4) Risk (semi-risk) refers to the collection of free lawyer's fees (or part of fees) in the early stage according to the target proportion that can be achieved in the later stage, which is common in cases where the parties have poor payment or execution ability.
Third, the manpower and material resources spent in handling the case.
Lawyer pricing will also consider the time required to complete the entrusted case, how many people are needed, the difficulty of the case, whether it involves the professionalism of the industry, the area where the case is handled, the area where evidence is obtained, the risk of the lawyer and the lawyer's own work level and reputation.
All these factors will affect the pricing of lawyers.
Therefore, if you want to hire a lawyer at a lower cost, you should do the following:
First, know the local lawyer market in advance. In some places, the lawyer's guidance price has not been abolished. If it exceeds the standard fee, it is against the regulations, and you can report it to the local judicial bureau.
Second, consult local legal aid lawyers appropriately. Every local judicial bureau has legal aid lawyers on duty, and the courts also have free lawyers on duty. The lawyers on duty in the court are generally part-time social lawyers, and they often guide the parties to entrust lawyers to collect fees. After all, lawyers have to make a living.
Every year, the Ministry of Justice sends a large number of volunteer lawyers to some areas with a small number of lawyers to provide legal aid. As long as the case meets the legal aid matters and the applicant meets the aid conditions, the lawyer will help the lawsuit free of charge. This system has benefited many people who can't afford a lawsuit because of poverty and safeguarded the legitimate rights and interests of the weak.
Third, be good at bargaining. Lawyer fees are negotiable! Don't be scared away by the title of lawyer. If you feel that the fee is unreasonable, you can communicate with the lawyer. For practical reasons, lawyers will consider lowering the fees.
Fourth, remember to ask for an invoice. You can't save this step just to save money.
