Under certain conditions, you can apply for legal aid<\/u><\/strong>. In the canton of Vaud, legal aid will first of all save you from having to advance trial or expert costs, which can be significant. It will also allow you a preferential rate on fees (today CHF 180 per hour for lawyers and CHF 110 for trainees). Please not that legal is not free of charge, but refundable as soon as you can do so. During the proceedings you normally pay to the Legal Aid Office a monthly amount of CHF 50 of CHF 100. At the end of the case, the judge sets the compensation and the costs to be borne by you. You will then receive a final statement and an invoice. Your monthly instalments will be deducted from your legal costs. If they exceed such costs you will be refunded the overpayment.<\/p>\n

Legal aid can be obtained on the conditions that you need legal counselling, that you do not have sufficient resources and that your case is not devoid of any chance of success.<\/p>\n

Our partners will gladly give you a free indication of your chances of obtaining legal aid upon presentation of your dispute and your financial situation by email to info@legalia-avocats.ch. Your presentation will be treated confidentially.
