At Virtulex Lawyers, we refuse that assumption. Our starting point is not a price list: it is you, your case and your means. Above all, we look for a solution so that the person in front of us can obtain justice.<\/p>\n In practice, this means two things. First, we give you an honest assessment from the outset: your chances of success, the anticipated costs and the options available to you, including negotiation and mediation<\/a> when circumstances allow. Second, we adapt the billing method to the nature of the case rather than imposing a one-size-fits-all formula.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n Here are the main formulas we offer. They can also be combined within a single file.<\/p>\n The classic formula: you pay for the time actually devoted to your file. It works well for cases whose scope is hard to predict. Our technological environment makes us particularly efficient, so every billed hour is an hour well invested. Whenever possible, we send a detailed monthly invoice so you can track costs in real time.<\/p>\n When the scope of services is well defined \u2014 for example an uncontested divorce<\/a>, the drafting of a court proceeding or a well-circumscribed hearing \u2014 we can agree on a fixed price, known in advance. No surprises: you know exactly what it will cost.<\/p>\n In certain cases, fees may correspond to a percentage of the amounts recovered. Our interests are then directly aligned with yours: we get paid based on results. A variant, the reverse percentage, sets a minimum and a maximum payable, keeping everything predictable.<\/p>\n An important case should not be out of reach because the bill comes all at once. We can agree on periodic payments adapted to your budget, much like a financing plan.<\/p>\n Depending on the circumstances, other arrangements are possible: value-added fees, adjusted according to what our services actually brought you; fees corresponding to a provision for costs awarded by the court, notably in family matters; an exchange of services; and, exceptionally, pro bono mandates. Speak openly with us about your financial situation: together, we will find a formula that holds up.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n Our modern way of working benefits your wallet directly. We are a virtual firm<\/a> with no commercial office space: we have no office tower to pay for, and you do not have to finance one through your fees. Our files are 100% digital, which eliminates needless paper handling and speeds up every step. We use leading-edge technological tools \u2014 including, prudently and within a strict framework, artificial intelligence \u2014 to increase the quality, speed and efficiency of our services, always under the lawyer’s professional judgment. The result: more value for every dollar you invest in your case.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n At any time, you may request an estimate of the services to come, and we will inform you if the circumstances of the file change it. Disbursements \u2014 court fees, bailiff, stenographer, expert reports and other amounts paid to third parties \u2014 are explained to you and billed at actual cost. In the event of a disagreement over an invoice, you have a free recourse: the conciliation and arbitration of accounts service of the Barreau du Qu\u00e9bec<\/a>, within 45 days of receiving it. You also remain free to end the mandate at any time.<\/p>\n More questions about disbursements, advances in trust or payment methods? See our frequently asked questions<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n The first step costs nothing: a free 10-minute exploratory call<\/strong> allows us to determine whether we can help you and whether it is worth going further. If needed, we then schedule a fixed-price consultation, payable online, during which we assess your situation, identify the appropriate solutions and evaluate the associated costs. That is when we build, with you, the fee formula suited to your case, which we set out clearly in a written legal services agreement.
