What is legal aid?
Legal aid means the professional legal assistance given, either at no charge or for a partial sum, to low-income persons in need of such help and who can not afford a lawyer. Aid depends on income and assets. You can read the Act on Public Legal Aid here.
How much does public legal aid cost ?
LEGAL COSTS NORMALLY
The average cost of an attorney in Finland is around 200 € hr + VAT = 248 €/ hr + expenses. Our regular fee is 195 €- 225 € /hr +VAT, (241,80 – 279 €/hr), depending on the case.
THE COST OF PUBLIC LEGAL AID
In contrast of above, if you have low income you might be entitled to public legal aid in civil and criminal cases in court. Then our help is totally or partially free for you,
The public legal aid means, that the State will stand for the legal costs of your case totally or partially, depending on your income and assets.
We will make the application to the state for you, and then our help is totally or partially free for you.
