Where we start

Conciliation request before the SEMAC is compulsory before suing. First we check whether a negotiated exit beats a hearing — it often does.

What it costs

First consultation from €88, IGIC included. Then a fixed part plus a percentage of what is recovered, agreed in writing before we start.

General time limits, for guidance. Yours depends on the actual dates of your case: this page is not a substitute for advice.
