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.

Montenegro's Advokatska tarifa is the Montenegrin Bar Association (Advokatska komora Crne Gore) tariff, adopted under čl. 15 st. 2 of the Zakon o advokaturi with prior Government consent — a semi-binding default scale, not a binding minimum and not pure reference. Courts and state organs are bound to apply it when awarding costs to the winning party (član 1). By written agreement the fee may be set lower — but not below 50% of the tariff — or higher, up to five times the tariff (član 4). The figures are net of 21% PDV, which is added on top. Tarifo presents these as a reference value, not a mandatory or minimum fee, and not legal advice.
Common questions

About these Montenegro figures

Are these Montenegro lawyer fees binding minimums?
No. They are reference values from the official Montenegro 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 Montenegro calculator include court fees?
Yes. Alongside the reference lawyer fee from the official tariff, Tarifo shows the official Montenegro 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.
