Lawyer's character

"Hello, Lawyer Yuwen. I am He Yan, Hu Huai's daughter-in-law. We have met in the third brother's chess and card room before." A familiar female voice came from the phone.

"Hello, what can I do for you?" Yu Wendong sat up suddenly, wondering what the other party meant by calling him. Hasn't Hu Huai's case been transferred to his master Meng Guangda?

"I want to talk to you about our Lao Hu's case. I called Dabao and he said it's best to talk to you about this matter. He can't make the decision, and it's troublesome to communicate back and forth, so I..." He Yan hesitated replied.

"Yes, I understand. Why don't you come to the law firm and let's have an interview?" Yu Wendong said. He didn't know what the other party wanted to talk about, but it was probably more important to listen to her tone.

"That's okay... why don't you come here at night? I'll treat you and Dabao to dinner at the Northeastern restaurant next to the third brother's chess and card room. What do you think?" He Yan hesitated and said.

She was afraid that running into Meng Guangda would cause embarrassment to both parties, so she changed the meeting place.

"Forget it about eating. I have a case to go to the court in the afternoon. I don't know when I will be back. Please listen to my call. Let's meet in the third brother's chess and card room." Yu Wendong didn't want to eat from the parties involved. As the saying goes, eat. People are short-tongued, how can they talk about commissions and quotations after dinner!

Yu Wendong is a principled person, which he learned from his master Meng Guangda.

"Okay. Let's see you tonight." He Yan replied.

After hanging up the phone, Yuwendong called Dabao.

"Yuwen, I was just about to call you. He Yan called you, right?" Dabao asked after the call was connected.

"Well, I just hung up. She wanted to invite us to dinner in the evening, but I refused. I asked her to meet in the third brother's chess and card room. She said it was about the case. Do you know what she wanted to talk about?" Yu Wendong asked.

"What else can we talk about? Lawyer's fees. She thinks Lawyer Meng's quotation is a bit high. After talking to Lawyer Meng before, she met with several lawyers. It is said that the other party's quotation is very low." Dabao said.

"Oh! I understand, she wants Lawyer Meng to handle her Lao Hu's case, but she is reluctant to spend the money." Yu Wendong sneered.

"Well, that's what I mean." Dabao said, "Are you still going to talk tonight?"

"Go, all this hard work can't be in vain. Listen to what she has to say. I'm out here. I'll call you." Yuwendong replied.

"Okay, let's meet in the chess and card room." Dabao said and hung up the phone.

Yu Wendong looked at the time on his phone. It was 12:40. He stood up and walked towards Meng Guangda who was taking a nap.

"Is something wrong?" Meng Guangda opened his eyes when he heard Yu Wendong's footsteps.

"Well, want to smoke one?" Yu Wendong took out a box of red plums.

"Forget it, just suck mine." Meng Guangda smiled, took out a box of Huazi from the drawer and gave it to him.

Lao Meng knew that his apprentice was quite frugal and did not smoke much. Only when he stayed up late to read the case files would he smoke cigarettes like himself.

Yuwen smiled: "Thank you, Master!"

When the law firm was renovated, Wankefa knew that there were many lawyers smoking in the law firm, so he deliberately set up a smoking room in the corner. It's lunch break, and most of the lawyers who smoke will go downstairs to enjoy a cigarette after dinner instead of sitting in the smoking room.

When Yu Wendong and Meng Guangda walked into the smoking room, the room was empty and there was no one.

"What's going on?" Meng Guangda lit the cigarette and took a puff.

"He Yan, the client introduced by Dabao before, do you still have any impression?" Yu Wendong asked, holding a lighter and cigarette in his hand after lighting a cigarette for his master.

"Well, after Sui Xia and I went to the detention center to meet with Hu Huai, she lost faith. Has she contacted you?" Meng Guangda looked at Yuwendong suspiciously.

"Well, she called me to make an appointment to meet, but she didn't say why. Later Dabao told me that she felt that the legal fees we quoted were a bit high, and this meeting might be to discuss legal fees. I guess she was embarrassed to tell you directly. He said, so he called me and wanted me to pass on the message." After Yu Wendong finished speaking, he lit the cigarette and took a puff.

"Well, you should talk to her. In fact, the lawyer in Hu Huai's case doesn't have much room for action. I told her before that Hu Huai might be sentenced to less than five years, so she might think our offer is a bit high.

In this way, I have more cases in my hands now. If she wants to lower the price, if the price is right, you can handle it. You have just obtained your lawyer's license. This case is not complicated and is suitable for you. The fat water does not flow to outsiders' fields. "Meng Guangda flicked the ashes of the cigarette in his hand and said seriously.

"Master, that's not what I meant. What I meant was..." Yu Wendong wanted to explain, but was stopped by Meng Guangda.

"Yuwen, you have just started practicing law and have little experience. Your master is over forty years old and has been here since you were here. I know how difficult it is for you young lawyers.

Listen to me, no matter how much money you have, if you can take the case, you must take it. Boss Fang said that everything must have a process. You have just started, you need to accumulate experience and build a reputation.

To be honest, one more case and one less case will not have any impact on Master. Don’t give up easily on the case that Dabao finally developed. "Meng Guangda said with a sincere face.

Yu Wendong nodded vigorously, his eye circles a little red.

He came to his master to talk about this matter because he was afraid that his master would misunderstand that he was robbing the case. Everything should be put on the table to avoid mutual suspicion. Now it seems that this is the right step. In the team, nothing can be hidden.

In the afternoon, Yu Wendong followed Fang Yi to the Intermediate Court to review the papers and had been studying the case files of Liang Yuncong's intentional homicide case in the office.

When it was almost time to get off work, Fang Yi asked Yu Wendong to go back first, and he walked to the director's office.

"Lao Wan, what's the happy event? You're so anxious to call me over." Fang Yi came in and shouted.

"Xiao Fang, stay calm and don't be so blatant. From now on, you are the head of our Shengde and our face, so you have to be careful." Wan Kefa curled his lips and joked.

"It's just the two of us. What are we holding? Who are we showing off to?" Fang Yi sat opposite him in a grand manner.

"Two pieces of good news. One is that their breeding company has renewed their legal consultant contract this year, and the legal fees have been increased to 200,000 yuan. Recently, they are going to launch an acquisition project and will give us the due diligence work. The legal fees are 150,000 yuan. ." Wan Kefa said.

"Yes, this shows that Shengzi's group has developed again. Legal fees have been raised, and work will definitely be inevitable. You have to ask the legal team to pay more attention to the trends of their group. I may introduce a partner to them in the future. If If they succeed, their group will be able to reach a higher level." Fang Yi picked up the teapot and poured a cup of tea by himself.
