If you have asked yourself this question, the answer is most likely yes. A lawyer is a person who is the most expert in counseling and representation, who can save you time, energy and money with his knowledge and experience. Many court proceedings arise, among other things, because the parties do not hire a lawyer in time. We consider this to be the wrong approach. A lawyer should be your partner through thick and thin.

According to the statute of the bar association and the Code of professional ethics of lawyers, we are obliged to keep as a professional secret everything that the client entrusts to us or everything that we learn or obtain in any other way in the case in which we provide legal assistance, in preparation, during and after the termination of representation. The obligation to keep the lawyer’s secret is unlimited in time.
The total price of our services is determined taking into account several criteria (time required to work on the case, type of case, complexity of the case, number of hearings, availability of documentation and evidence, etc.). If you have any doubts about the price for hiring a lawyer, please feel free to contact us.
Depends. If it is necessary to pay court or administrative fees for your case, the hiring of an expert or a translator, you will be obliged to pay the said costs. Also, if incurred, the client shall bear the lawyer’s expenses, which are necessary for the conduct of your case, such as transportation, leave from the law office, postal services, etc.
Legal advice includes objective and professional advice that a lawyer provides to his client on whether, how and when to take certain actions in order to exercise his right.
A legal opinion includes an objective, professional opinion that a lawyer provides to his client regarding a specific issue, which refers to the client’s right, obligation, and interest.
The lawyer is obliged to provide the client with an unbiased opinion or advice and to point out to the client good and bad circumstances that may affect the outcome of the case.
Our rule is to inform the client of all relevant changes in the case as soon as possible, and no later than within 24 hours from the moment of the change. We will notify you of changes by email or telephone, depending on the agreement with you.
Depends. If your statement (testimony) is necessary in the proceedings, you are obliged to respond to the summons of the court. Otherwise, your presence is not necessary, as we as the office will represent you on the basis of a power of attorney. You certainly have the opportunity as a party to attend every action that the lawyer undertakes at the trials in your case.
If you hire us to provide you with legal advice, a legal opinion, to draw up a contract or similar actions, we will do the same according to the agreed deadline, which we determine according to the complexity of the case, urgency and our previously agreed obligations to other clients. Certainly in these cases you would receive the requested service relatively quickly (within a few hours to a few days).
If you hire us for representation in court or administrative proceedings, the duration is unpredictable. Court proceedings can last from several weeks to several years. Factors that affect the length of court proceedings are, first of all, the complexity of the case, the number of evidence that needs to be presented, the court’s actions in terms of the frequency of scheduling hearings, the facts of whether an appeal will be filed after the first-instance proceedings (which is decided by the second-instance court) and so forth. In each specific case, we can provide you with information on the expected duration of the procedure.
