Hire good lawyers Ten Tips

From the perspective of the parties, to hire a lawyer is a business investment behavior. In squandering gradually to charm the eyes of Chinese lawyers today's industry, how do you ensure that accurate vision, find a suitable lawyer » This article is intended to give you a pair of eyes, the current penetration of the heavy fog Bar, you quickly find a suitable lawyer.

1, not necessarily professional flaunt professional

Now many lawyers have advertised themselves as "professional lawyer," but we will certainly flaunt professional professional? » For instance, some lawyers in the counsel of their founder of the online marriage, advertised himself as the Marriage Law of professional lawyers, while in another site, has transformed the real estate professional lawyers; even more incredible is that in another site also has become Criminal defence lawyers……

So that people who see lawyers, the ghosts that pack of lies, in the same chameleon, the lawyers may professional? «A person's energy, time is limited, not 18 skills proficiency in everything, a lawyer may be one or several Legal field of "professionals", but can not be all-inclusive "generalist", unless he is the "size-fits" type of lawyer.

2, does not necessarily flaunt integrity integrity

China today lacks credibility, a lack of trust between people, many lawyers to flaunt credibility as a break through the psychological defense line parties a weapon. But is not advertised on the integrity of certain integrity? » On the contrary, in most cases, lawyers with the exception of integrity, honesty But not routine. What is worthy of your trust lawyers lawyers »

(1) he will for your sake. There was no need to intervene in the proceedings, he would not charge legal fees and to intervene; no cost, he will never close. Your interests, he resolutely safeguard, even if you are a unscrupulous merchants, or a killer, he is able to maintain the independence of his career, will not harm your interests to do things.

(2) he did not arbitrary price. The integrity of lawyers, charges will follow industry standards to your clear and specific charges, the contract will not be charged, if properly executed contract, even if no money to finish the case, he will not Hangsheng; instead of the integrity of lawyers , Will be low charges with your embarkation, and then slowly Yidaoyidao slaughter you.

(3) that he strictly and trustworthy. And the time you agree, he will be rushed, certain instruments completed on time, work will not be delayed, he will definitely fulfill his promise.

3, do not flaunt the famous famous

There are many lawyers advertised himself as "well-known lawyer," and "well-known lawyers", "senior lawyer", in fact, most of these people are just debut of young lawyers. "Prominent lawyer," and so on is only by virtue of its network, the master of marketing, Zichuizilei product.

Choice of lawyers do not look at whether the lawyer's online propaganda strong, critical look at the lawyers professional standards. Society, some lawyers marketing tools is too high and clear, their right Shenhuqishen, as if that is the savior, as long as a出马we can turn the tide. But the real contact down, the level of their legal Bugangongwei is sometimes true, not false desperately boasted that even some professional terms also made a mistake.

Guangzhou is a lawyer, in the sensational case of Sun Zhigang, China, as a defendant's defence counsel, even in the defence that the defendant is the word "coercion committed" should be extenuating or mitigating punishment, make a big joke! Criminal Law, "Xie Congfan" refers to the coerced to participate in the crime, he should be in accordance with the mitigating circumstances of the crime or be exempted from punishment. The lawyers "Xiecong Fan" into "stress guilty," even the basic common sense are not understood, how can they talk about "prominent lawyer" » Is to be the lawyers, not only a clever marketing tool, and later on even when the vice president of a court, dignified China, is really no Did it!

To retain the "well-known lawyers" have these characteristics: Specializes in legal services are often not more than three areas in order to reputation, is generally considered admissible to the successful cases have generally received good at in the field of major cases.

4, lawyers really are licensed Zhapian Fan?

We often hear a statement that "lawyers are licensed Zhapian Fan," this really is? » We have in Dongguan for a single sensation of local corruption case, the case was enrichment of the lawyers of the people of China: As the legal adviser to a state-owned enterprises (Dongguan, a local lawyer) issued by the wrong legal advice, leading to the top five state-owned enterprises charged with corruption; by the Requests the five lawyers, is the capital of a well-known real estate lawyer, but the only lawyer in court before the evening to fly over, left immediately after the trial, in Dongguan, the time spent together is not more than 72 hours, all the work by Assistant completed, Zhaobenxuanke just at the time of the trial, the case is very strange, and prosecutors can not debate, it received more than 50 million in legal fees; one is a university in Guangzhou, vice president of the Fazhengxueyuan, but his "Academic Lawyers, "but Gao Buqing the Penal Code on" mitigating "and" alleviate "the distinction, nor do I know the law expressly provides that the Court the power to change the count in court when prosecutors seize the handle; one is a once in the work of the Court Lawyers (do not know the court is doing or to do administrative judge), the court said some Butongbuyang point of view, the only hope that quickly closed; There is also a lawyer, simply to take perfunctory, muddle through.

In court, we feel a deep sorrow, said lawyers are licensed Zhapian Fan, not without reason. In this era we live in, you select the lawyers do not professional, not just a waste of money, more seriously, the case will not be some consequences.

5, the important experience of lawyers?

Many lawyers to practise their own special emphasis on 20 or 10 years time, and so on, as a demonstration of their own experience and great ability. We believe that the quality of law, professional savvy, practical experience and practice and conduct of lawyers is a good basic conditions. Lawyer, not a solid theoretical foundation of law, no legal operation of the savvy, the arts and more may not be familiar, even long time to practice, only low-level operations. In fact, many lawyers stressed that their experience, it is because of his professional basis and not afraid of a solid performance.

A practising lawyer for more than 20 years old, when the court actually made two incredible defence point of view: first, a tooth for a tooth, a life is a life arrived in the Chinese tradition, the first defendant in this case have been sentenced to death, has arrived in the life Therefore, the second defendant in this case can not be sentenced to death, not a life for the two life; second, is the only son of the second defendant in this case, there are old, under a small, middle of my wife, family planning is China's basic national policy, the basic national policy In law, in this case the second defendant sentenced to death indirectly, in violation of China's basic national policy.

Why Chinese lawyers will appear so ridiculous? » This is China's to do with the examination system. In the late 1990s before the examination is very simple, a lot can not take the examination on the licensing of lawyers exceptions, did not result in a lot of levels, or even ignorance of the law "Chinese lawyers," In this sense, the more Practising lawyers a long time, probably no more level. State to a lot of people licensing lawyers, but did not give these lawyers to handle cases capacity.

6, on the basis of professional lawyers important?

Line of people agreed that the importance of professional knowledge. A solid foundation of professional lawyers even deal with new types of business, also Gaorenyichou the contrary, the worse the basis of professional lawyers, will be Naochu big joke:

A lawyer, originally done in Jiangxi Province, the Secretary for Justice, and later in Guangzhou lawyer, an alarming defence point of view: because there is no such reference to public security and judicial organs, public security organs is not the judiciary, then the public security organs No right to investigate and collect evidence, the public security organs to retrieve the evidence invalid.

There is also a lawyer, claiming "of college graduates, the Chinese University of Political Science and Law graduate master's degree in 1981 into the work of the procuratorial organs, 19 × × years, as × × × × City District's Procuratorate,……", is to be such a " Senior counsel ", on the one hand, the court said the defendant" not guilty ", on the other hand said that the defendant is" a first offender, should be extenuating, "Not to say there is no law on first-time offenders should be relatively light punishment, even if Yes, these two contradictory views of the defence is also an absurd mistake after the sentencing, family members of the defendants came to Guangzhou from afar, to the lawyers repeatedly requested the original judgement and the defence words, files and other documents are material failed, only that End open court after the lawyers simply do not have to write the word defence, not even to the markers, they accumulate a hard few years farming the hard-earned money, only exchange for the lawyer's absurd and irresponsible mistake……

Professional can often be the basis of qualifications from the lawyers reflected, it is worth noting that, if only in brief marked "graduate" what, without indicating what graduated from the institution, it is may be non-genuine Keban Health. You can Lvxie site, the lawyers of the true qualifications, age and other information practice investigated Pianzhi.

7, wearing a packaging and the level of lawyers

Most people the impression that the lawyers Youguang shiny hair, wear suits, ties, with the latest high-end mobile phones, a luxury sedan. This is not a lawyer's lawyer is a high level? » We know that there is such a lawyer: a luxury brand names, with full-time secretary, the use of advanced Bluetooth mobile phones, driving their parents to buy their cars, some parents rely on their personal connections, are also sources of business, all day long Have been busy telephone, riding in cars everywhere Douzhuan, on the surface judgement, it must be done quite well, but he did not even have the right to petition submitted to the court, the parties to delay the appeal, causing a considerable adverse consequences.

Indeed, based on the outcome of the invisible labor lawyer, judge whether a lawyer is really a high level of cost, so the external image of lawyers tend to become parties to the criteria, but in fact, many real level of lawyers often Juchongruoqing, not deliberately to packaging Themselves, because of its decision to bar the status of its external do not need to rely on these things to their packaging, and his name is the credibility of the guarantee.

8, the rich, famous and a level

Is not rich or well-known lawyer is the level of lawyers? » It is true that there are some linkages between this, but must not be equated entirely. Money come from the » Are relying on the power play out or blown up by the media » This has doubts.

9, high-level lawyers to help you?

Some people to a lawyer, superstition, "big" eyes only focused on the "Bar", it seems that the Bar are all hand-eye Forum, Fengxionghuaji capabilities, regardless of the "Bar" in which expertise, and whether you The case of "professional counterparts."

Do not blindly believe the big lawyers, big-name lawyer does not necessarily suitable for you, even if you signed a single, he may not have time to consider your case, they have many disciples, perhaps your case can only let him apprentice disciples practicing Skills, then you Yuansi, is not to say that the apprentice has done well, but because you spent a brand-name prices, it bought a case of parallel imports.

If the lawyer becomes a "politician" ( "deputies", "CPPCC members."), Or in Lvxie, Ren Moumou duties, more can be sure: He was once recognized by certain groups, or even a large extent The success of lawyers, and hang up the title, that he had more success, but at this point in time, he may not be competent you do business, he may become a wholesale case to the "small lawyers", "Bar owners," he May also be due to "official" entangled, too busy to extricate on your case, or that he has a very long time neglect of delving into the business lawyers.

10, quickly find the key to good lawyer

What is a good lawyer » You really suitable for the lawyers is good lawyer. Heavyweight good lawyers are to argue with classic build brands, to lawyers fought the case is based on good lawyer to quickly find the golden key.

You enter through the search button with "well-known lawyer," and "well-known lawyer," "Guangdong lawyers", "Guangzhou lawyers", "criminal lawyer" and "criminal defence lawyers", "real estate lawyer," "Company Law lawyers" and other words Indeed can quickly search a large number of lawyers, but really can not be content with the number, who fight under the banner of the ring, or who is ranked to measure the level of lawyers.

You should focus on to see lawyers write legal documents, lawyers are lawyers instruments law knowledge, text, practical experience and litigation skills enrichment and vector, in defence terms, the word agents, lawyers such as the level of the clear bottom of the river, List Wu Yu. Only take the time to infiltration in the range of the Internet by the lawyers handling the case, the defence to examine the word, the word agent, and other instruments and the verdict, the lawyers can really Gan Wudao style and standard of choice to suit their own lawyers.

You should look at the lawyer's business expertise, their case is not with his professional counterparts. A lawyer is good at a certain aspects of legal affairs, it is necessary to carefully from life experiences, education, professional studies, published on the handling of the case (do not simply look at the results and impact of the case, depends on case-handling process and the number of cases) And other factors to determine.

You should see the ease of cases, the target size, which is a legal context. Generally speaking, small cases it is not appropriate to "counsel", and should, it is not appropriate to Doubtful Case "mini counsel",there is no need to find real estate, intellectual property lawyers do Kyo, even if his reputation further large.

You should "Chayanguanse", to review the strength of lawyers: You should visit a law firm to see if the lawyer's office environment, law books, and other objective conditions; you should Yantanjuzhi lawyers to study the oral expression of his ability, logical thinking ability , Adaptability and communication skills; you can also take him to a lawyer has closed the "judgement", from the lawyers handling the case study on behalf of the lawyers handling cases experience and results.

You should be through multiple channels, the lawyers ask for more or less understand the people, not to force the lawyers have a reputation rate of 100 percent, because the lawyers in China is still rather serious misunderstanding, but still good lawyers Most people will win approval.

You can also focus on the case, set a number of issues, the lawyers ask: how the legal case evaluation » What kind of countermeasures to be taken » Can predict the trend to the case or the outcome »

You can relax the vision that brought a lot of lawyers of personal data, which screened a few "candidates" to compare their law training, practice experience, operational expertise, the style of handling cases, social impact and social experience, but also The phone and through correspondence with their preliminary form of communication, "the stoning ask for directions." Huolian not afraid of the truth, can withstand the strength of the lawyers are "than".

You should also look at charges: Watch lawyer fees, legal fees can not simply look at the amount, that "your" and "not expensive" conclusions. You should be the case the difficulty, complexity and lawyers may be going into the office expenses, paid by the mental labor of size, quality level compared to Mozhun of the lawyer's "market" You can quote lawyers , Comparative shopping, of course, lawyers uneven quality, work style, ideas, very different costs, fees and charges "grades" also vary greatly.
