Ukrainian legal market: how much do lawyers charge for their services

7 July 06:02

Attorney Tetiana Lezhukh presented the results of her own research on the cost of legal services in Ukraine. The survey, which she conducted among her colleagues, allows us to see the general picture of the pricing policy in the legal services market in different regions and among professionals with different levels of experience. A total of 37 practicing lawyers took part in the survey, 17 of whom have 1 to 3 years of experience, 10 – 3 to 6 years, 3 – 6 to 10 years, and 7 respondents have been working in the legal field for more than 10 years. This diversity allows us to form a more objective view of pricing trends in the legal sector of Ukraine.

This was reported by "Komersant Ukrainian".
