Are Lawyers in Israel Expensive?
If you are currently using or planning to use legal services in Israel, then you are probably wondering how much this will cost you. Well, this is not a simple question to answer, and it depends on many factors. For example, factors that may affect the price are who the lawyer is; who you are, in terms of status and work position; the nature of the case in question; and the field of practice. Also, prices may highly depend on what your lawyer thinks your chances of winning are.
==> Fixed Price, Percentages or Mixed?
Some lawyers take a certain percentage of the win or expenses and some take a fixed fee. At times, you will need to pay a non-returnable fee in advance and the rest will be paid in a percentage from the win. As a general rule, Israel criminal lawyers ask for a fixed fee. These fees can be from anywhere around several thousands of shekels to hundreds of thousands of shekels. Most will probably be around 20,000 shekels, more or less. Non-quantifiable cases like administrative petitions, injunctions and so on will also probably be a fixed price.
Lawyers that are involved in cases such as traffic accidents, work accidents and any other kind of physical injury will most likely ask for a percentage, usually 10-15%. Lawyers dealing with civil law, employment or consumer cases may ask for a certain fee right at the beginning of your work together, and then ask for a percentage later on.
However, keep in mind that you can always negotiate. So don’t be afraid to try. But another thing you should think about is that the service you get usually fits the pay. So it is a delicate balance that you must keep between not spending too much and not getting cheap services for a cheap cost.
