Dutch term or phrase: barema

Subheading of a text extolling the virtues of a particular Dutch insurance company:

Geen barema’s erelonen.

De wet voorziet het principe van de vrije keuze van advocaat. Nergens in Europa wordt dit zo breed geïnterpreteerd als bij ons te lande. Deze vrije keuze kan door de meeste consumenten niet zinnig worden ingevuld. Daarom doen ze daarvoor beroep op hun verzekeringsbemiddelaar. Vele advocatenkantoren bewerken deze bemiddelaars en kunnen de financiële gevolgen van één en ander gewoon op rekening van de verzekeraar rechtsbijstand afwentelen. Zij zien de rechtsbijstandmaatschappij als een derde betaler.

fee scale

Explanation:
Having some form of a 'fee scale' in relation to lawyers seems to be the norm.

See websites:
http://www.ag.gov.au/www/attorneygeneralhome.nsf/0/F087C3801...
"The report found that the fee scale did not result in a lesser quality service being provided by legal aid lawyers."

http://www.mobar.org/law/great.htm
"For example, your vision may be equal access to justice for all. Your action plan could be to provide legal services on a sliding fee scale."
