Who should pay for this lawyer's fee? The lawyer's fee shall be paid by the party requesting the lawyer. However, in civil and commercial cases, when one party becomes the defendant, if a lawyer is hired to defend it, and the plaintiff wins the case (the law supports one party to repay the necessary expenses paid by the other party for the trial of the case), the plaintiff may be required to pay this fee. There are three ways to collect lawyers' agency fees:
(1) Charge by piece.
For some cases with no bid amount, cases with small bid amount, and criminal cases, fees are usually charged according to the specific circumstances.
(2) According to the charging methods stipulated by the Bureau of Justice and the National Development and Reform Commission, the fees are charged in steps according to the target amount, such as a standard for the part below 654.38+10,000 yuan and a standard for the part of1000-500,000 yuan, and so on, and then the fees are divided into different parts according to the amount of entrusted cases, and finally superimposed. The above two charging methods are different according to the different provisions of local economic development, and are implemented according to the standards promulgated by provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the central government.
(3) Risk agency.
There are two kinds of risk agents, one is full-risk agent, and no agency fee is charged at the entrusted place. After the case is won or the execution payment is received, the settlement shall be carried out in accordance with the provisions of the agreement between the two parties.
