Grimme, Winkler and Grau
01.
We clarify all essential remuneration issues BEFORE you commission us, so that you know how and what costs will be incurred.
02.
We estimate the budget for your order, so that you can weigh up the options and make a good decision.
03.
We assess each case individually and make the arrangements that are best for you. This means you only use the services you really need.
04.
We document our services precisely and with time recording in 6-minute cycles - and send you a monthly invoice.
Regardless of the area of your concern: For the first counselling session, we charge a flat fee of EUR 260 net (EUR 309.40 gross incl. 19% VAT) per participating partner per hour. We will discuss the factual and legal situation in a personal meeting lasting around 60 minutes.
The main purpose of the initial consultation is to build trust and clarify the facts of the case. We identify the legal challenges and the need for advice. After the initial consultation, you will have an optimal basis for deciding how to proceed.
Billing according to time-based fee:
In principle, we will work for you on the basis of a fee agreement with a fixed hourly rate. Before you place a binding order, we will provide you with a concrete estimate of the expected costs for individual activities (as far as possible). We offer hourly rates from EUR 350 net (EUR 410.50 gross incl. 19% VAT), depending on the area of law and the assignment. Your contact person will be happy to provide you with the specific hourly rate and an estimate of the work involved in advance by telephone or e-mail.
Billing in accordance with the German Lawyers' Fees Act:
Alternatively, we also offer private individuals billing in accordance with the fees of the German Lawyers' Fees Act (RVG). In the area of commercial law, however, invoicing in accordance with the RVG is legally mandatory if we act for you in court and the time fee is below the statutory fees.
Options for reducing or eliminating the cost risk:
As a modern law firm, we offer you all permissible options to reduce or completely eliminate your costs and the cost risk. This includes the involvement of a litigation financier. We will also inform you which of the fees you have incurred you can claim for tax purposes and which costs may have to be borne by your opponent in the event of a legal dispute.
Standard services are based on the Tax Consultant Remuneration Ordinance.
This mainly concerns declaratory tasks such as tax returns and annual financial statements.
Accounting activities are remunerated on a time and material basis, as well as other tax advice. The hourly rates of the individual employees depend on their qualifications and experience - tax consultants, tax clerks, accountants, etc. Of course, you only pay for the qualifications and experience required for the service.
All other services in the field of tax law are charged according to our rates for legal advice, see above.
The GWGL team is characterised by a high degree of specialisation and experience in the respective fields of activity. This enables a highly efficient working method that largely eliminates familiarisation periods.
As a result, we can offer our clients favourable conditions - both when billing on a time basis and when charging fees in accordance with the Fee Ordinance.
