The local picture
Aigle
As the main town of the district that bears its name, Aigle is home to the district prefecture and its tenancy conciliation board. Otherwise, it comes under the Est vaudois judicial arrondissement: the Tribunal d’arrondissement de l’Est vaudois (district court) for civil and criminal cases, the Tribunal de prud’hommes de l’arrondissement de l’Est vaudois (labour court) for employment disputes, and the Ministère public d’arrondissement de l’Est vaudois, based in Vevey, for criminal investigations.
The Aigle district stretches from the Vaud Alps to Villeneuve and borders Valais, so a dispute may involve two cantons. On ora., you compare verified lawyers and legal advisers in the region, their areas of law and their rates, then book at the office or by video. The practitioner sets their fee, and ora.’s service fee is charged separately.

Tenancy
Tenancy: the prefecture’s conciliation board first
A dispute with your landlord, whether over rent, a defect or a notice to quit, normally starts before the Commission préfectorale de conciliation en matière de baux à loyer, the tenancy conciliation board. Each district has its own, attached to the prefecture; the one where the property is located has jurisdiction. It tries to bring the parties to an agreement; if that fails, the case can go to court. A lawyer helps you draft the application and meet the deadlines.

Employment: four labour courts
Vaud’s ten districts are grouped into four judicial arrondissements, each with its own labour court (tribunal de prud’hommes): Lausanne, Est vaudois, La Côte, and Broye et Nord vaudois. It decides disputes between employers and employees, from a contested dismissal to unpaid wages or a work reference. Before you act, a lawyer checks your documents and any deadline that is already running.

Criminal: the regional public prosecutor
A criminal complaint, a summons to an interview or a summary penalty order: investigations are led by the Ministère public du canton de Vaud, the cantonal public prosecutor, through its regional offices for Lausanne, Est vaudois, La Côte and Nord vaudois. The trial then takes place before the district court. The deadline to object to a summary penalty order is short, so speak to a lawyer without delay.
