Frequently Asked Questions
How long does a court case take?
The duration of litigation varies significantly depending on the complexity of the case, the competent court, and the volume of evidence. A commercial dispute may take between 6 months and 2-3 years, depending on the number of appeals. Our team evaluates the estimated timeline and optimal strategy from the outset.
What documents do I need to provide at the first meeting?
For the initial consultation, we recommend bringing all relevant documents: contracts, corporate documents, relevant correspondence, administrative or tax documents. Based on an initial review, your lawyer will specify what additional documents are needed.
How are fees determined?
Fees are set based on the complexity and nature of the case, estimated time, the experience of the lawyer involved, and the value of the interests at stake. We offer full transparency regarding costs and can agree on fixed fees, hourly rates, or success fees, depending on the specifics of each situation.
