Lawyer's character

Chapter 212 Diverting trouble to the east

Zhao Zhongcheng smiled and looked at Chu Huai: "No, I am just a butcher's knife at best, but you, Lawyer Chu, can develop business outside and do cases inside. You are a real sword (cheap)! I am far worse than you. ”

Zhao Zhongcheng despised Chu Huai from the bottom of his heart, not only because the two began to fight openly and secretly from the moment they entered the law firm, but also because Chu Huai did not distinguish between internal and external affairs.

People are complaining about Justice Law Firm and Fang Yi. You, Chu Huai, are just gloating about the misfortune! Even if you don't like Fang Yi, you shouldn't say such sarcastic words at this time. Don't forget that you are a lawyer at Justice Law Firm. If the reputation of Zhengyi Law Firm is damaged and the business is not as good as before, will you, Chu Huai, get a bargain or what?

I don’t understand the principle of both prosperity and loss, and I have lived in a dog’s belly for decades. Zhao Zhongcheng felt cursed in his heart.

"Humility, Lawyer Zhao, you are being humble. I will obey you in our law firm." Chu Huai patted Zhao Zhongcheng on the shoulder and said with a smile.

"Don't say that. If the director hears it, he will say that we have to form a small group. This is not good." Zhao Zhongcheng said with a smile.

"Don't worry, the director invited people to dinner in the evening. He has already gone out and is not in the office." Chu Huai said with a grin.

Early the next morning, Fang Yi and Director Sun walked into the conference room of the Lawyers Association.

Sitting in the conference room were three lawyers from the Disciplinary Punishment Committee. They were the personnel sent by the Lawyers Association to investigate Fang Yi's unfair competition.

"Lawyer Fang, I have just informed you of the content of the complaint. Do you have anything to say?" asked a male lawyer wearing glasses sitting in the middle.

"Someone complained that I represented Zhao Cuixia's case for free and disrupted the legal market. I don't agree with this. First of all, Zhao Cuixia is the daughter-in-law of my brother Fangmao, that is, my sister-in-law.

In the past, my brother Fangmao took great care of my father, and we are relatives who have not been out of the fifth server. The two families move around a lot and have a good relationship.

They came to me out of trust in me. I represented his wife's case for free and didn't think there was anything wrong. Shouldn't this be regarded as undermining normal market competition?

Moreover, the current "Anti-Unfair Competition Law" and the "Punishment Rules for Lawyers Association Members' Violations (Trial)" do not classify the behavior of charging lower than the market guideline price for representing relatives and friends as an act of unfair competition. I think the other party The complaints are completely baseless. "Fang Yi argued.

"Lawyer Fang, I think you may have forgotten that our city has promulgated the "Industry Guidance Standards for Lawyer Service Fees", and your behavior violates the provisions of the guidance standards." The male lawyer wearing glasses said seriously.

"You also said that it is the "Guiding Standards for the Lawyer Service Fee Industry". The reason why it is called a guiding standard is not called a law or regulation. It is because it is only a guiding standard, not a law or regulation. To put it more bluntly, you just said The guiding standards are not mandatory, they are just a reference." Fang Yi retorted.

Fang Yi's words left the other party speechless, embarrassed and a little embarrassed. The male lawyer wearing glasses was a little embarrassed to stand down. yes! The Lawyers Association is determined to punish lawyers, but it cannot find a clear legal basis. This is really a ridiculous situation, and it is all based on self-inflicted punishment!

"Lawyer Fang, don't get excited. This is not an investigation. We just need to explain everything clearly. By the way, what was the final result of the Zhao Cuixia case you represented?" The short, fat lawyer sitting on the left put on a pose. He said with a harmless expression and a smile.

"The case was won, and the verdict was changed to not guilty in the second instance. This is the verdict. I also brought the case file." Fang Yi handed over a copy of the judgment and the case file.

After the short and fat lawyer took the verdict, he nodded at the other two people: "This case is beautifully done. The quality of the cases that Attorney Fang has done in the past two years is quite high. Many innocent defenses have been supported by the court."

"Yes, our lawyer Fang Yi is very professional. He has a doctorate in criminal law. He used to teach and educate people, and later became a lawyer to defend justice and fairness. He has always been outstanding.

I think this matter is indeed not unfair competition. First of all, the parties involved are relatives of Lawyer Fang and have a special relationship. This cannot be measured by market rules.

In addition, although it is a free representation, Fang Yi is still very dedicated and does not reduce the quality of case handling because he does not charge a fee. This shows that Attorney Fang has the professional ethics that a lawyer should have.

Whatever the Lawyers Association wants to investigate, our Justice Law Firm will definitely cooperate. "

Sun Zhengyi and the three people across from him are all old acquaintances. What they say is meaningful. They argue with reason and give each other a step down so that the matter will not become deadlocked. They are indeed old friends.

More than half an hour later, Fang Yi and Sun Zhengyi walked out of the door of the Lawyers Association.

"I asked about it last night. Someone wanted to mess with you, so they deliberately collected information from you to complain against you." Director Sun walked to his car, took out a huazi and handed it over.

Fang Yi took the cigarette and looked at Sun Zhengyi in surprise: "Me? I've only been a full-time lawyer for a little over a year. I don't seem to have offended anyone!"

"You really didn't offend anyone? Think again." Sun Zhengyi was holding a lighter in his hand and was about to light a cigarette. Hearing what Fang Yi said, he asked.

Fang Yi was excited and suddenly remembered Wu Xiaoqing: "You mean Fair Law Firm?"

Son Zhengyi held a cigarette in his mouth, said nothing, and nodded.

In fact, Fang Yi was implicated in the battle between Zhengyi Law Firm and Fair Law Firm, so he was complained. However, Sun Zhengyi couldn't say that. He was afraid that Fang Yi would hate Zhengyi Law Firm and himself.

Such an inexplicable attempt to divert misfortune and point all the finger at Fair Law Firm might arouse Fang Yi's hatred and allow Fang Yi to unite with him for a longer period of time and compete with Gu Qingping in a battle of wits and courage.

Sun Zhengyi thought, even if Fang Yi does not get involved in the struggle between the two law firms, as long as he does not change firms, he is just a brand. The penalty from the Lawyers Association is nothing, nothing. As long as the parties recognize Fang Yi, nothing else will matter. important.

Looking at Fang Yi's hesitant expression, Director Sun knew that he was a little undecided and didn't know whether what he said was true or false.

"The three lawyers who were in charge of the investigation just now, the one in the middle wearing glasses, whose surname is Li, is from the Municipal Lawyers Association, and is a drinking buddy with Gu Qingping. The two of them have a good relationship, and you can also hear that he is a bit targeting you.

The short, fat man's surname was Gu. He used to practice law in the county and had a good relationship with me. Later, he went to the city to develop his career and is now a member of the disciplinary committee of the city's Lawyers Association.

Gu Qingping had approached him before, but he was still relatively upright. In addition, the lawyer hasn't spoken much, so Gu Qingping probably also came to see him.

So no matter what kind of punishment the Municipal Lawyers Association gives you this time, don’t be surprised. Just do your own thing and don’t worry about anything else. Evil people will be punished! Justice will eventually come. "Sun Zhengyi said.
