23As regards contracts for legal services, such as those at issue in the main proceedings, it should be observed that, in the field of lawyers’ services, there is, as a general rule, some inequality between ‘client-consumers’ and lawyers owing in particular to the asymmetry of information between the parties. Lawyers display a high level of technical knowledge which consumers may not have and the latter therefore may find it difficult to judge the quality of the services provided to them (see, to that effect, judgment in Cipolla and Others, C‑94/04 and C‑202/04, EU:C:2006:758, paragraph 68).
