Lawyer's character

"You pay the legal fees for the meeting and transfer of files first, 5,000 yuan. If Lawyer Fang thinks that this case has a chance to win, you can pay the legal fees for the later period, 50,000 yuan. What do you think?" Xie Youhe took over the conversation and said .

"Fifty thousand yuan... Do you think we can charge less? Our retirement salary is not high... If Lawyer Fang agrees to continue the case, can the lawyer's fee be 40,000 yuan?" Teacher Xiao was confused.

The two sides talked back and forth, but Fang Yi and Mei Xiaoting couldn't say a word and could only sit there. In the end, both parties decided that the lawyer's fee for the initial meeting and transfer of documents would be 5,000 yuan, and the later fee would be 40,000 yuan, for a total lawyer's fee of 45,000 yuan. After the negotiation was completed, Teacher Xiao signed the entrustment procedures and paid the upfront fees.

After receiving the lawyer's fees, Fang Yi made an appointment with the detention center to prepare for a meeting, communicated with the presiding judge of the second instance court, and transferred the file.

After sending Teacher Xiao and his wife away, Mei Xiaoting held a copy of the first-instance judgment in the conference room and smashed it: "This Xiao Song is so stupid. He only robbed more than 200 yuan and was sentenced to eleven years. His wife also ran away! How silly!

Then go sell medicine! Medical representatives can make money. Although what they do is not a good thing, they can count the money until they are weak and don't have to worry about being sentenced. How beautiful! "

"You think you can sell medicine by just nodding your head! Oh no!" Xie Youhe glanced sideways at Mei Xiaoting and said.

Mei Xiaoting stuck out her tongue and stopped talking. She didn't hear the whole story. She was scratching her head and wanted to follow him to meet him, but she was afraid that Lawyer Sima wouldn't let him go, so she had to give up.

"Lawyer Fang, I think your method is very good. You charge the lawyer's fees in two installments. Although it takes a little trouble, it can ensure the quality of the case and increase the client's goodwill towards us." Xie Youhe looked at Fang Yi and said.

The litigation team has just been established with only three lawyers in total. Gu Datong gave him three years to create the team's own litigation brand. Therefore, Xie Youhe has relatively high quality requirements for cases at this stage, and he will handle many cases that cannot be won at all. Turning away, he didn't want to ruin the team's reputation for immediate benefits.

So Fang Yi proposed to meet first and review the case file before confirming the entrustment. Xie Youhe felt that it was feasible. He did not refuse directly but left room for himself and the parties involved to choose, especially for this kind of relationship. Lawyers may have better results with clients who are less trusting or less confident in the outcome of the case.

Of course, if the client trusts the lawyer and is willing to pay all the legal fees at once and entrust the lawyer to represent the case, Xie Youhe will naturally not refuse. Of course, he believes in Fang Yi's professional ability. Without the support of lawyers with strong professional capabilities, Xie Youhe would never be able to build a team litigation brand.

"This is also a helpless move. The parties concerned cannot provide more case information. The case information obtained from only one judgment is limited. Without transfer of files and without meeting, it is really difficult to judge the situation of the case. I can't say Chou Yinmao. If you charge legal fees directly, the client will definitely not pay them." Fang Yi spread his hands.

"Okay, I'll leave this case to you." Xie Youhe felt that what Fang Yi said made sense. Business is hard to do!

The next day, Fang Yi met Xiao Song in the second detention center.

Xiao Song, male, twenty-eight years old, strong and tall, does not have the bookishness of Mr. Xiao, but more of a street gangster. At first glance, he feels that he is not a good thing, even if he is admitted to the detention center. in this way.

His eyes were a little sluggish, his spirit was depressed, his head was drooping, and his eyes were blue. This may be because he knew that he had been sentenced to eleven years in prison, was desperate, had insomnia, and felt that he was finished.

"Xiao Song, I am lawyer Fang Yi from Jinshi Law Firm. Do you know Xiao Chengzhu?" Fang Yi asked expressionlessly.

"I know, Xiao Chengzhu is my dad." Xiao Song whispered without raising his head.

"Your father Xiao Chengzhu entrusted me to come to see you. This is the entrustment procedure. Take a look at it. If you agree, sign it." With that, Fang Yi handed over the procedure.

After Xiao Song signed the signature, he handed the entrustment formalities to Fang Yi and said, "My father entrusted you to defend me?"

"The defense matter has not been determined yet. Your father has entrusted me to come to see you and understand the case. After the transfer of files, if necessary, your father will entrust me to defend you." Fang Yi put away the entrustment formalities.

"Well, you ask!" Xiao Song nodded.

"Can you tell me what exactly happened?" Fang Yi asked.

Xiao Song recalled it and told the story of the robbery intermittently.

The case occurred in June. There is a forest near the People's Park. The forest is relatively large, with dense plants and a quiet environment. It is a must-have place for romance. Whenever night falls, the depths of the woods will also become a place where filth and evil practices hide, and people looking for flowers and willows often burrow into them.

That night, Xiao Song drank some wine and passed by the woods when he went home. He suddenly had the idea (Xiao Song said it was a sudden idea, but Fang Yi would definitely not believe it) that he wanted to get some money in the woods.

So he took advantage of his tallness and size, and went into the woods, wandering around in it. The sound of his footsteps scared away a pair of wild mandarin ducks. When he walked over, a man was putting on his trousers, so Xiao Song shouted, He pretended to be from the police station and was arresting Piao Sing. Seeing that the other party was scared, Xiao Song secretly smiled and knew that he was right.

Later, Xiao Song threatened the man to take him to the police station and lock him up, notify his family, and of course, he could also use the money for personal gain. The man saw that Xiao Song smelled of alcohol and did not look like a policeman, so he asked for his ID. Unable to produce his ID, Xiao Song kicked the man down, then pounced on him and used violent means such as choking his neck, pulling his hair, and pulling his arms. Finally, he stole 210 yuan in cash and a black headset from the man.

Afterwards, the man who was robbed felt that he was useless and couldn't swallow this feeling, so he found two friends and wandered around the woods every night, trying to catch the man who robbed him. Two nights later, the robbed man discovered Xiao Song and called the police. Xiao Song was arrested on the spot.

"What did you do with the money and headphones you robbed?" Fang Yi asked.

"I spent the money. The headphones were sold at a street stall and were worthless, so I threw them on the roadside." Xiao Song said.

"When the crime occurred, were you wearing a police uniform or something similar to a police uniform? Please recall." Fang Yi asked.

"No, I'm sure of this. I said the same thing before when people from the police and prosecutor's office asked me, I didn't have that kind of clothes at all. It was June, the weather was very hot, and I was wearing a pair of thin jeans and A white vest." Xiao Song said.

"Did you show the police officer who claimed you were at the police station any ID or anything that could prove your identity?" Fang Yi asked.

"No, that kid asked me for my ID at that time, but I didn't have it! In desperation, I kicked him to the ground, and then turned over the money from him. In the end, I only found 210 yuan. I would have known better. He will be sentenced to eleven years..." Xiao Song regretted.
