Lawyer in the canton of Appenzell Innerrhoden

On ora., every lawyer is checked against a cantonal bar register, and every legal adviser holds a Swiss law degree. You filter by area of law, language and place and compare profiles and fees. Practitioners from Appenzell Ausserrhoden or St. Gallen are an option too; you book a meeting at the office or by video.

At first instance, the district court (Bezirksgericht Appenzell I.Rh.) covers the whole canton, in civil, family and criminal matters as well as employment disputes. A tenancy dispute starts before the conciliation office (Schlichtungsstelle für Mietverhältnisse), and criminal investigations are led by the public prosecutor’s office. Administrative appeals go to the Kantonsgericht Appenzell I.Rh., Abteilung Verwaltungsgericht.

Depending on the decision, an appeal to an administrative body may be open first. At cantonal level, the administrative division of the cantonal court (Kantonsgericht Appenzell I.Rh., Abteilung Verwaltungsgericht) has the last word. The deadline and the remedy are stated at the end of the decision; a practitioner checks the right route.

Each practitioner sets their own fees, and the rates of the lawyers available are shown live on this page and on every profile before you book. ora.’s service fee appears on a separate line and is never added into the fee, and you pay the practitioner directly. If your means are insufficient, you can apply to the competent court for legal aid.
