Lawyer's character

Fang Yi's attention was all on the verdict and he didn't notice the change in Fang Mao's expression.

"Brother Mao, was your sister-in-law caught selling wild protected animals?" Fang Yi looked up at Fang Mao.

"Yeah. I tried to persuade her not to make a lot of money with all her whims, but she just didn't listen.

You also know that your sister-in-law has opened a small restaurant in the countryside. It is difficult to hire a cook these days. Without special dishes, you can’t make money. Your sister-in-law knows someone who sells wild animals. If there are acquaintances who treat guests or give gifts, you sister-in-law You will get some pheasants, hares or whooper swans, and sometimes you can even get bear paws. In fact, she can't make much money from one order, so she is just a matchmaker.

There was something going on in the village on the day of the incident, so I didn’t go to the restaurant. Later I heard that she was caught while taking wild animals to customers. She committed a criminal case and was locked up in a detention center. I couldn't see her. I heard that only lawyers could see her.

I don’t know where Zhang Da Naou heard that my wife had been arrested. He came to my house that night and patted his chest and said that he could solve the problem. However, I was fooled by him and signed the contract. That's it. "Fang Mao regretted.

Seeing that he couldn't ask any more questions, Fang Yi advised Fang to be more open-minded and not to panic when something happened. That being said, there are a few people who don't panic when something big happens. As a villager, Fang Mao's performance is already pretty good.

"Brother Mao, if my sister-in-law wants to appeal, she must hurry up and submit an appeal within ten days from the date of receiving the judgment." Fang Yi said after reading it.

"Yes, I'm afraid of delaying the matter. Why don't I come to you? I think you are more reliable as a brother, so I want to entrust you to handle your sister-in-law's case. Do you think?" Fang Mao looked at Fang Mao eagerly. Yi.

"No problem, I'll take care of my sister-in-law's affairs. However, my sister-in-law was caught and the police got all the stolen goods. This case is not easy to fight. I can only give it a try. I'll go meet my sister-in-law first and ask about the specific situation." Fang Yi said.

"Then look, the lawyer's fees..."

Fang Mao looked at Fang Yi again. He had previously hired Zhang Datou to represent his wife's case. He had spent a lot of money. People in the village had poor financial resources and could not withstand the torture, but going to jail would be the same as going to the hospital. It would definitely cost him nothing. No, I have to grit my teeth no matter how much I want.

"Brother Mao, we are not outsiders, so we don't need to pay lawyer fees." Fang Yi said.

Fang Yi is not pretending to be generous. Fang Youcai's job as gatekeeper in the village was arranged by Fang Mao. In the past few years, it was Fang Mao who led the village cadres to the front when there was any big or small affair in the village. The family who gave birth last time If the child's illness hadn't just occurred recently, I'm afraid the life of the family would have been even more difficult.

To be fair, Fang Mao has provided a lot of benefits to the villagers in the past few years since he became the village chief. Poverty alleviation loans, living allowances for needy families, and mutual aid groups in the village were all created by him when he went to the countryside or proposed by him.

In the past two years, he has helped the villagers obtain poverty alleviation loans, raised sheep and pigs, and done a lot of practical work. Every time Fang Yi came home, his father Fang Youcai would chat with him about the latest news in the village, so Fang Yi took risks. The impression was very good. This time something happened to Fang Mao's daughter-in-law, Fang Yi felt that she should help Fang Mao both emotionally and rationally.

"Is this...is this appropriate?" Fang Mao felt a little guilty and said awkwardly.

"We are all family members, let's not talk about this. Let's eat first and go to work later. Let's go to the detention center to complete the entrustment procedures. I will tell the director about the situation. I will make an appointment at the detention center in the next two days to meet my sister-in-law." Fang Yi said.

After hearing this, Fang Mao felt warm in his heart and felt a lot more relaxed.

In the afternoon, Fang Mao was signing the commission procedures in the conference room of the law firm. Fang Yi went to the director's office and told Director Sun that Fang Mao was his brother and had a close relationship, so it was difficult to charge legal fees. Fang Yi originally thought that Director Sun would say a few words, but Sun Zhengyi directly asked Fang Yi to go through the formalities without raising any objection at all. He just reminded Fang Yi to be careful when he went out, so as not to turn against him.

Director Sun still has a bottom line. He usually won't charge for his family's cases. Of course, he usually won't do it, so as not to complain and make it difficult to meet in the future.

How could Fang Yi not understand what Sun Zhengyi meant? Director Sun was afraid that if his case failed or failed to meet the expectations of the client, his relatives would become enemies and the relationship would be discordant in the future.

Originally, Fang Yi could push this case to other colleagues or colleagues and not get involved in the case himself, but he felt that given the current situation, the experts in the Justice Law Firm in terms of criminal cases... might as well forget it. Doing it yourself makes you feel more at ease.

In addition, during the meal just now, Fang Yi had already tested Fang Mao's bottom line. Fang Mao was a sensible person and knew that this case was difficult to handle. If he was caught on the spot, he would basically treat a dead horse as a live doctor. That's why Fang Yi dared to take over Fang Mao's case.

The next morning, Fang Yi went to the detention center to meet Fang Mao's daughter-in-law, Zhao Cuixia.

Zhao Cuixia, who was brought by the female police officer, was in a low mood at this time, her eyes were a little red, and she seemed a little excited after seeing Fang Yi.

"Brother, why are you here?" Zhao Cuixia asked with her eyes shining.

"Brother Mao came to me and said that something happened to you and entrusted me to provide you with criminal defense in the second trial. Do you agree with me to provide you with defense?" Fang Yi asked.

"I agree, I know you are a well-educated person and a doctor. You will definitely be able to get me out." Zhao Cuixia shed tears involuntarily as she spoke.

"Sister-in-law, you have to sign for the routine procedure." Fang Yi said and pushed several pieces of A4 paper to her.

Zhao Cuixia raised her right hand and wiped her tears with the back of her hand, then picked up the pen and started signing.

"Sister-in-law, what happened at that time, you have to tell me the cause and effect, don't hide anything." Fang Yi felt uncomfortable. Zhao Cuixia was easy-going, well-versed in business, and her brain was definitely capable. How could such a smart person do this? Got caught!

"Well, at the end of last year, someone came to my restaurant and asked me if I had any good game. I didn't have any in hand at the time, so I didn't continue the conversation..." Zhao Cuixia told the whole story.

It turned out that at the end of last year, a man named Wu suddenly came to the small restaurant run by Zhao Cuixia. Seeing that there were not many people in the restaurant, the man named Wu pulled Zhao Cuixia aside and asked him in a low voice if he could do anything good. game (good game: refers to wild animals protected by the state), saying that I wanted to buy some for gifts.

Zhao Cuixia had done the same thing before and had many regular customers, but this time the man surnamed Wu was a stranger. She was very wary and said he had no such thing, only rabbits and pheasants raised by the villagers.

The man surnamed Wu knew that she could not trust him, so he named a regular customer of Zhao Cuixia. Zhao Cuixia did not immediately agree to him at that time. She just asked the other party to leave her mobile phone number and told him to call him when the goods were available.
