Legal Consultancy in Padua and Venice
Legal advice and assistance for individuals and businesses in Padua and Venice. A clear opinion on rights, time frames and costs before deciding whether and how to take action.
What to bring to the first meeting
A legal consultation is the first meeting with a lawyer, at which a specific situation is examined in order to understand whether there is a legal issue, what courses of action are available, and what time frames and costs each of them entails. It does not presuppose ongoing litigation and is precisely intended to enable an informed decision on whether and how to act. The Firm offers legal advice and assistance in Padua, Venice and throughout the Veneto, by appointment, to individuals and businesses.
Many people postpone consulting a lawyer because of concerns that often do not correspond to reality. Seeking legal advice does not commit you to starting litigation, because in many cases the matter is resolved through a settlement or a simple letter. Concern about the cost diminishes once it is understood that the consultation fee is agreed in advance, and that a timely opinion avoids far higher costs arising from ill-judged choices or from time limits being allowed to expire. The idea that a problem is too minor to take to a lawyer is also misleading, because it is precisely at the initial stage that clarification costs less and produces greater effect.
Everything communicated to the lawyer is covered by professional secrecy, and this allows you to set out your position candidly. The principal benefit of a consultation lies in making an informed decision, because knowing your rights, the necessary documents and the applicable time limits in advance has a greater impact on the outcome of a matter than any subsequent action. Where it emerges that it is worth taking action, the Firm then assists in the out-of-court phase or, where necessary, in litigation.
