Lawyer charges

[amit_pearl2]

Hello All,

Land litigation case will atleast last 10 years or more. Generally how much do Lawyers charge for handling litigation case for 30*40 site.

Do they charge one time fee or we need to pay every year? If every year, how much do they generally charge?

There is nothing like fixed charges to be paid for a case.

A lawyer look at the nature of the litigation and they charge you based on the number of
visits to the court hearings. Each hearing visit will cost you in 4 digit numbers.

Price to get justice seem to be pretty high. The guy who has put a case is showing an intent to settle it out of court.
was told is looking for may be lakh rupees per site. If i go via court, then wait for 10 years. in years possibly
120 hearings. Each hearing 1k. i would end up shelling out 1.2 lakh.

Most of the time the hearings dont happen as one of the party does not turn up. During purchase of site,
i got the papers verfied by paying good amount and was told that papers are clear. i did pay decent amount then,
now again shelling out money is hurting

Looking for small time honest lawyer reference. should not be burden pocket.

Which court is this in? In my experience it is better to hire a lawyer who is a regular in the same court. Primarily most foot-lawyers are fixated to a particular court.. If not, they will have to run around on the hearing day and they refer a representation of theirs and the fees just goes on adding up. Usually even for petty cases (false cases filed), the courts drag the case for years together and its all such a mess.

Agree Awin. Litigation case is in Court of Civil Judge(jr div) Bangalore Rural District.
At this point, all that i wanted was a high level amount i may need to shell out.

Still yet to find a lawyer. Any refrence of lawyer who is efficient and reasonable would help.
