If you find a lawyer charging 200k for a bail application, report him/her to the MLS. That's too cheap and against the Remuneration Rules.
Pun intended.
Apparently, the wretched Remuneration Rules aim to protect service quality. It's all a charade. There's no correlation.
Instead, they limit competition & affordability. They restrict market-driven pricing innovation.
It's the reason why 75% of Malawians can't afford legal fees.
The biggest hurdle against becoming the cheapest lawyer in the entire universe is the so-called Remuneration Rules.
These oppressive rules do not allow lawyers to go below a certain charge. If you are found charging low legal fees, you'll be summoned by MLS.
Insane.
I tell these new legal practitioners. 75% of Malawians can't afford legal bills.
That means they've to battle for clients among the 25% with seasoned and well-connected lawyers.
Insane.
Cut your charges into half and tap into the 75%. Cheap service, more clients.
Tell these naive undergrads - running or working for a law firm - is 90% business management and 10 % legal work. Their survival after school is guaranteed if they minored in Business management

He's desperate and in need of salvation. He'll not only dig deep in his pockets, but his purse, bank account & Airtel money."
Hydration breaks are a scam, they want you to believe it's about the players, when in reality it's just capitalism, more screen time for ads. That's the American World Cup for y'all
Japanβs goalkeeper, Zion Suzuki, must be destroying the minds of a lot of racists. Turns out the US-born son of a Ghanaian and a Japanese who grows up in Japan is, after all, Japanese
Imagine if Malawi said it isn't part of Africa and it is applying for EU membership. Nobody would care. You people are just jealous of African countries that are doing better.
