Our retainer plans
To help clients weigh the costs associated with ongoing, long-term legal consultation and support, our proposed retainer plans include a fee estimate for services, determined according to each company’s specific needs, based on the estimated time required to meet those needs and with a view to preventing future problems and potential disputes.
Retainers run on a six-month or annual basis, with payment due by the 8th of the relevant month. They renew automatically for equal periods and may be terminated at any time, with a minimum of thirty days’ notice before the end of the term.
— SILVER, GOLD, PLATINUM OU DIAMOND

- The Diamond retainer includes court representation for cases whose value does not exceed the jurisdictional limit of the Courts of First Instance (€5,000.00). The amounts shown do not include court fees and other judicial costs.
Fees cover all intellectual services as well as legal representation before courts, public administration, official bodies, and other entities, plus VAT at the legal rate of 23%.
For services provided under a retainer arrangement, fees are calculated based on an average estimated monthly or annual number of hours, considered necessary to guarantee the lawyer’s availability and taking into account the complexity of the client’s structure, type of clientele, number of employees, difficult-to-collect debts within the business activity, and similar factors.
Expenses incurred in carrying out the engagement — such as postage, certificates issued by official bodies, and travel — are the client’s responsibility and are always subject to prior approval.
If the set limits are exceeded, the standard consultation fee charged by our office applies. If the proposed service limit is not fully used, any unused services do not carry over to the following period. Documents prepared under the retainer arrangement include contracts, legal opinions, letters, and other communications necessary to pursue clients’ best interests.
The review and handling of proceedings, preparation of legal opinions and documentation, when not covered by the retainer arrangement, are estimated in advance based on the expected average time required and inherent complexity, using the hourly rate charged by the office, which can always be confirmed beforehand and is subject to approval.
