Legal notes on fees
- No binding offer. The terms displayed here do not constitute a binding contractual offer within the meaning of § 145 BGB. An engagement and fee agreement is concluded exclusively via a separate written fee agreement clearly set apart from the power of attorney and any other declarations (§ 3a(1) RVG).
- Amount-in-dispute notice (§ 49b(5) BRAO). Where fees are calculated on the basis of the amount in dispute, the client is expressly informed of this before the engagement begins.
- Disbursements and ancillary costs (VV RVG No. 7000 et seq.). In addition to the fee, disbursements accrue — in particular the postal and telecommunications flat rate (20% of fees, capped at €20), travel expenses, overnight accommodation, daily allowances, and document copying charges under VV RVG No. 7000. Court fees, administrative fees, and third-party costs are passed through separately.
- Advance payment (§ 9 RVG). The firm is entitled to request reasonable advance payments before commencing work and during the engagement.
- No contingency fees. Contingency fees within the meaning of § 4a RVG are not agreed as a matter of principle.
- B2B engagements only. Services are rendered exclusively to entrepreneurs within the meaning of § 14 BGB. No contracts are concluded with consumers (§ 13 BGB); no right of withdrawal under § 312g BGB arises.
- Conflict check. Every engagement is preceded by a conflict-of-interest check pursuant to § 43a(4) BRAO and § 3 BORA. Where a conflict is identified, the engagement is not taken on.
- Liability and professional indemnity insurance. Attorney liability is governed by the provisions of the applicable fee agreement. The firm maintains professional indemnity insurance pursuant to § 51 BRAO (see imprint).
- Price validity. The prices shown apply until an updated version of this page is published. For existing engagements, the individually agreed fee remains authoritative.
- Value-added tax. All prices are exclusive of statutory VAT unless expressly shown as gross. Reverse charge applies for EU B2B services (§ 13b UStG / § 3a(2) UStG).
- Payment term. Invoices are payable within 30 calendar days of the invoice date, without deduction. Alternative terms (in particular for international engagements with longer procurement cycles, e.g., up to 60 days) may be agreed individually in the fee agreement. Default consequences are governed by § 288 BGB.
