05 How Yingke Lawyer Charges
How Yingke Lawyer Charges
Charge By
It’s the most common payment arrangement in the west, but it’s also gradually adopted by Chinese lawyers. Yingke Lawyers’ hourly rate can vary
anywhere from $200 per hour to $500 or more. The hourly fee arrangement is
applicable to many kinds of cases.
For legal cases where the process is transactional or somehow standard, such as: company formation, lease
preparation, property transfer, trademark registration and estate
planning, many lawyer are willing to offer competitive flat fees.
The contingency fee is less certain. In this arrangement, the lawyer is only compensated for legal services if the
client receives a positive financial outcome, via settlement or money
judgment awarded by the court. The standard contingency fee is usually about 10% to 35% of the positive
financial outcome.
A retainer agreement requires the client to make payment in advance for
potential legal services. It is mostly carried out in the form of a fixed fee charged periodically. For example, a
Yingke lawyer may charge RMB10,000-30,000 for a normal divorce litigation
case, or RMB100,000 for a typical legal due diligence case.
