Fixed fee lawyer

Fixed fee lawyer

Noest Advocatuur is one of the first Dutch fixed fee lawyers. Sending invoices based on hourly rates is old-fashioned and not very tranperant. That’s why Noest Advocatuur prefers to work with fixed fees.

In the list below, you can find the fixed fees for employment cases. Please notice that this list does not mention every thinkable subject or kind of case. It is possible (and even usual) to agree on a specific fixed fee in other cases too.

Hourly rate

For some cases a fixed fee does simply not “fit” very well. Those are cases where it is impossible to predict the content of our proceedings. For those cases and for employers and employees who do not prefer the idea of a fixed fee, Noest Advocatuur has an hourly rate of € 180,– ex VAT.
