Are these Slovakia lawyer fees binding minimums?

No. They are reference values from the official Slovakia tariff, not mandatory minimums. A lawyer may agree to charge more or less — the fee agreement is between you and the lawyer.

Where do the numbers come from?

Every figure is computed from the official tariff published by the national bar council, and the breakdown links to the specific article that produced it. Tarifo never averages market quotes or invents figures.

Is this legal advice?

No. Tarifo explains what the tariff says; it does not analyse your case. For advice about your situation, talk to a lawyer.

Is Tarifo free to use?

Yes. The calculator is free, with no account and no sign-up. The site is funded by clearly-labelled display advertising.

Does the Slovakia calculator include court fees?

Yes. Alongside the reference lawyer fee from the official tariff, Tarifo shows the official Slovakia court fee for your case type and claim amount — so you see the full cost of bringing a claim, including how it changes for a family case or an appeal.

Reference

This is a reference, not a quote. A lawyer may agree to charge more, or less. The agreement is between the client and the lawyer.

The Slovak advokátska tarifa (vyhláška 655/2004 Z. z.) is the default fee when there is no fee agreement (zmluvná odmena, § 24 zák. 586/2003 Z. z.), and the baseline a court uses to award cost reimbursement (náhrada trov konania) — it is not a binding minimum on lawyer–client agreements. Amounts are net of 23% DPH (§ 18 ods. 3, added on top by VAT-registered advocates). The § 11 indeterminate-value rates are a fraction of the annual výpočtový základ (€1 586 for 2026, refreshed each January). The encoded text is consolidated to 1 Jan 2024, after novela 391/2023 Z. z. Tarifo presents these as reference values, not legal advice.
