GRP Rainer Lawyers and Tax Advisors in Cologne, Berlin, Bonn, Dusseldorf, Frankfurt, Hamburg, Munich, Stuttgart and London – www.grprainer.com/en conclude: In the case in question, a law suit was filed for payment of the remaining amount of the agreed-upon contractual fee. The defendants built four row houses. In the course of this, the plaintiff was given an order for electrical installations by signing a confirmation of the plaintiff’s order with a lump-sum amount for the work performed by one of the defendants. The confirmation also contained the addition, “5000 € settlement according to arrangement”. Thus, the defendant in question also paid the plaintiff part of the contractual fee.
