GENERAL ADVICE ABOUT RETAINING A GERMAN ATTORNEY

In retaining the services of a foreign attorney concerning a private dispute abroad, the following guidelines may assist

you in protecting your interests.

Selecting an Attorney

When you receive a list of attorneys, it is recommended that you contact several attorneys, briefly describing the

nature of the services you desire. Before you decide which attorney to engage, request a written schedule of fees

generally charged for the services you need, inquire whether the attorney is fluent in English, and become acquainted

with a particular attorney. Do not submit any documents or funds until you are certain that the attorney understands

your problem and is willing to handle your case.

How to Deal with Your Foreign Attorney

Always research the attorney’s qualifications and experience. Find out how the attorney plans to represent you. Ask

specific questions and expect the attorney to explain legal activities in a language that you can understand. Ask what

fees the attorney charges and how the attorney expects to be paid. Some attorneys may expect to be paid in advance;

some may demand payment after each action they take on your behalf, refusing to take further action until they are

paid. Ask that your attorney keep you informed of the progress of your case according to a pre-established schedule.

Remember that most court calendars are crowded. Have your attorney analyze your case, giving you the positive and

negative aspects and probable outcome. Do not expect your attorney to give a simple answer to a complex legal

problem. Be sure that you understand the technical language in any contract or other legal document prepared by your

attorney before you sign it. Keep your attorney fully informed of any new developments in the case. If you need to

provide complex or technical documents to your attorney, you may wish to consider having the documents translated

into the native language. An elementary knowledge of English may not be enough to enable the attorney to

understand the documents you provide. Tell the attorney every relevant fact in order to get the best representation of

your interests. Find out how much time the attorney anticipates the case may take to complete. Request copies of all

letters and documents prepared on your behalf.

Notaries

In Germany notaries can perform many of the functions performed by attorneys in the United States. For example,

foreign notaries frequently draft instruments, wills, and conveyances. In Germany, a notary is an official, appointed

by the Ministry of Justice, whose functions include not only the preparation of documents, but the administration and

settlement of estates. Such notaries may serve as repositories for wills and are empowered to serve legal documents.

They are not lawyers, but are very specialized members of the legal profession. They may not plead cases in court.

Coordination with Counsel in the U.S.

American attorneys may not be in a position to represent your interests abroad, particularly because they will not be

permitted to participate in German court proceedings under German law. American attorneys experienced in

international law may be helpful in explaining the complex international issues involved in your case and some may

have associates or partners abroad to whom they can refer you.

3

Legal Aid

Legal aid is meant to enable parties who cannot pay costs for litigation in court or attorney costs to enforce and defend

their rights. Who gets legal aid? The German law says: “A party who, in the light of his personal and financial

circumstances, is unable to bear the costs of litigation, or who is only able to bear such costs in part, or in installments,

shall, based upon application, be granted legal aid if the proposed legal action or legal defense offers sufficient

prospect of success and does not appear willful.” Accordingly, there is a right to legal aid for somebody who

- has to conduct litigation but cannot pay the inevitable costs involved and,

- in the opinion of the court, does not have only insignificant prospects of winning the case.
