A lawyer is not only for the "rich": Beratungshilfe gives free advice for the poor (the Amtsgericht issues the voucher for ~€15). Prozesskostenhilfe makes court free if you have no money. Legal insurance (Rechtsschutzversicherung) is a lawyer policy (~€15–25/month covering disputes). The order: first Mahnbescheid (claim), then Klage (suit). The Streitwert (dispute value) sets costs: under €500 settling is cheaper.
- ●Beratungshilfe: ~€15 for an hour of legal advice — on low income
- ●Lawyer search: anwalt.de, deutscheranwaltverein.de, by specialty
- ●Verjährung: debts and claims expire — usually 3 years
⚖️ Germany has ~160,000 lawyers — 1 per 500 people. The first hour costs ~€190–250 — but Beratungshilfe makes law accessible to all.
