This query is : Resolved
Dear friends,
If any lawyer is not paid the charges for the professional services, what could be the limitation period to file a suit for recovering the charges for professional services. I was told that only for recovery of loan or borrowings or lending of money the limitation period is 3 years and I am further informed that for claiming professional charges as stated supra there is no limitation period.
It it true? Kindly refer to judgments or authorities if any.
