The above tariff is to be considered the minimum charge to be made in any case, but the attorney is expected to charge more in proportion to the amount involved, the responsibility entailed, and the necessary labor bestowed. TARIFF FOR MINIMUM FEES FOR EXAMINATION OF TITLES TO REAL ESTATE IN THE CITY OF RICHMOND AND HENRICO COUNTY, VIRGINIA As adopted by practically all of the members of the Richmond Bar First The minimum charge for complete examinations shall be: (1) One per cent. (1%) on the first $2,000.00 or less of the purchase or exchange price or loan, in no case, however, to be less than $15.00; plus (2) One-half of one per cent. (1%) on the next $3,000.00 or part thereof; plus (3) One-fourth of one per cent. (1%) on the next $20,000.00 or part thereof; plus (4) Two-tenths of one per cent. (.2%) on the next $75,000.00 or part thereof; and plus (5) One-tenth of one per cent. (.1%) on all amounts over $100.000,00; So that the minimum charges on amounts from $1,000.00 and less to $100,000.00 and over will be as follows: Second Continuations of abstracts of titles may be made at not less than the rates hereinbelow set forth, provided (1) that the period for continuation does not exceed ten (10) years; (2) that the continuation is intended only for the purpose of a loan; (3) that the title to the land examined has continued to be vested in the person who owned it at the time the original examination was made, or, in the event such original examination was for a purchase or exchange, that such title was at that time transferred to and has continued to be vested in the person for whom such original examination was made; and (4) that such continuation is for or for the use and benefit of one of such persons. The minimum rates for such continuations shall be: (a) On loans of $2,000.00 and less, $10.00. (b) On loans in excess of $2,000.00 and not in excess of $10,000.00, $10.00 plus one-fourth of one per cent. (%) of such excess. (c) On loans in excess of $10,000.00 and not in excess of $25,000.00, $30.00 plus two-tenths of one per cent. (.2%) of such excess. (d) On loans in excess of $25,000.00, $60.00 plus one-tenth of one per cent. (.1%) of such excess. Third From the above fees there shall not be made either directly or indirectly any abatement or rebate, commission, or consideration whatsoever allowed, conceded, or paid to any person, except that (1) a commission of twenty-five per cent (25%) of the gross fees charged may be paid to (2) attorneys for whom or whose clients employing them for the purpose of examinations of titles or continuations thereof are made, but (3) never so as to reduce the net fee of the title examiner to less than $10.00. Fourth The above charges shall not apply to examinations of titles or continuances thereof made in cases in which fees may be otherwise prescribed by law, or to cases in which a title examiner may feel bona fide constrained to make no charge for his services. |
