The court awarded the defense attorney a salary of 10,985 DKK plus VAT. The attorney requested payment via email, but the client was only notified of the statute of limitations after the appointment and after discussing the issue with the attorney. The court ruled that the delay in notification by the client prevented the statute of limitations from barring the claim.
