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.
33
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.
