Questions you may have

Isn't a telephone legal advice service at $5.60 per minute too expensive?

If the telephone conversation is well prepared and the question is clearly asked, you will receive a clear answer in a few minutes, without having to make an appointment or travel anywhere. The hourly rate is $336 including VAT, which is similar to consulting a lawyer.

Furthermore, if the answer to your question requires research, we undertake not to prolong the call unnecessarily and to suggest that you call us back at a mutually agreed time.

Can any legal question be answered seriously over the phone?

In many cases, particularly if the dispute is complex, a lawyer will only be able to give a competent opinion after reviewing the entire case file, which is impossible to do over the phone. However, the public has thousands of questions about legal matters that can be answered in less than a minute over the phone.

If I call the legal advice service on 0900 116 116 (CHF 5.60/min.), how many secretaries will I have to speak to before I reach a lawyer?

None! The caller is immediately connected to the lawyer.
