Am I obliged to pay legal costs for a hearing that was scheduled through no fault of my own?
Questioner
I was summoned and despite my contacts with the other party to reach a solution, the hearing still took place. So I got a verdict to pay legal costs etc, and I don't agree with that. What should I do? I'm on welfare and have no money for a lawyer.Lawyer
If you wish, you can contact me to discuss your case. It may be possible to appeal. If you are on welfare, you are often eligible for subsidized legal aid. In short, you pay a small amount to the lawyer as a personal contribution. To compensate for the lawyer's costs, special assistance can almost always be requested from the municipality in which you live. In the end, you would not have any costs.Take the next step
