Pacta de Quota Litis, as an Alternative to Ensure State Legal Aid in Civil Cases
##plugins.themes.bootstrap3.article.main##
Abstract
Pacta de quota litis is one of the agreements allowing to render legal aid on which the remuneration for legal services depends on the settlement of the case. The condition that the provider of legal aid is only paid if the case is won, makes litigation available to the needy and the poor who otherwise could not afford a lawyer. Therefore, such agreements could become a great alternative to legal aid. However, in Lithuania, as well as in other countries, such agreements are viewed as very controversial and are often forbidden.
