Fees
Because we carry more responsibility, master not only risk management but also crisis management and have to keep a great deal of knowledge available, and because our clients only have to pay us when we actually work for them, I allow myself to set the following prices:
Rates
| Item | Rate |
|---|---|
| Survey, investigation, preparation of the report | EUR 150.00 per hour |
| Travelling and waiting time | EUR 150.00 per hour |
| Other clerical work | EUR 150.00 per hour |
| Mileage | EUR 0.90 per km |
| Stationery, photographs, postage, telephone | as incurred |
| Further travel costs (rail, air, taxi, hotel) | as incurred, against receipt |
| Costs of specialist surveyors called in | as incurred, against receipt |
Surcharges on the hourly rate
| Period | Surcharge |
|---|---|
| Work between 18:00 and 22:00 | 50 per cent |
| Work between 22:00 and 06:00 | 100 per cent |
| Saturdays between 06:00 and 18:00 | 50 per cent |
| Sundays and public holidays | 100 per cent |
All prices are net and subject to statutory German VAT, currently 19 per cent. Payment is due immediately upon invoicing, at the latest within 14 days without deduction.
Important note
The principal bears all costs incurred by the surveyor in having to explain his written report orally following a summons to court. These include outward and return journey, travel and accommodation costs, waiting time and working time, in so far as they are not covered by the German JVEG or by the rates of remuneration of the court in the country where the summons is issued. The rates stated above apply.
