• based on the relevant legal regulation (in the case of non-contractual/tariff fee), i.e. Decree No. 177/1996 Coll., on fees of attorneys-at-law and reimbursement of expenses incurred by attorneys-at-law in provision of legal services (attorney’s tariff)

• based on an agreement with the client (contractual fee), i.e.:

  • per hour fee

  • fixed fee for dealing with a particular matter

  • flat (monthly/quarterly) fee for long term co-operation, which remains constant regardless of the scope and time demands of the required work

  • share of the value of the case or a share on the outcome of the case under dispute/negotiations

The fee for legal services determined based on one of the above methods is also increased by the applicable VAT rate. The contractual fee is further increased by the out-of-pocket expenses (e.g. duty stamps, court and administrative fees etc.) and expenses associated with the provision of legal services (e.g. phone fees, copies, e-mail traffic and office administrative activities). Expenses associated with the provision of legal services correspond to a flat amount of 2.5% of the fee charged per calendar month.
