-  03

-  04

### Accompaniment to Resolution

Continuous representation before all committees and instances, ongoing updates, explanation of every decision. Until the case concludes with an outcome.

❖   What does an initial consultation include? A meeting with a professional, mapping the situation, initial legal assessment and a first recommendation for action. Usually at no cost.

Is it possible to work with you remotely? Yes. Most communication — calls, scanned documents and online committees — takes place remotely. An in-person meeting only when it adds value.

How is the attorney fee determined? It depends on the type of case. In civil cases primarily a percentage of the award ("success fee"). In other cases — a fixed fee agreed in advance.
