NN City, 66 Zhongshan Road, 26th Floor, Diamond Bund Building, Yingwen Law Firm. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Yingwen Law Firm has been established for nearly 20 years, with about 70 practicing lawyers and an area of more than 1,300 square meters. The firm is expanding and has leased the entire 27th floor of the Diamond Bund Tower, which is being renovated. A law firm of similar size may not be considered a leader in big cities such as Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, but as a law firm in a western province, Yingwen Law Firm can be said to be a relatively large law firm. Whether it is hardware facilities or soft power, Yingwen Law Firm is not only ranked among the top in NN City, but also among the top 10 law firms in GX Province. Good birds are perched on trees, which is why Gao Xiang chose to practice at Yingwen Law Firm.

The law firm has a large bay on the 26th floor, with a total of 38 booths, which are exclusively used by ordinary lawyers. When Gao Xiang entered the office, there were several positions to choose from, and Gao Xiang chose the last corner of the innermost, she liked to be quiet and didn't like the people in front of her.

In recent years, the firm has developed rapidly, and there are many new young lawyers. At about the same time as Gao Xiang, the young lawyers who entered the firm one after another were all sharp, and the seniors who joined the law firm before her were in their prime. Gao Xiang chose to be a lawyer and do his favorite profession, and interest is the biggest motivation. In recent years, the "five plus two" mode of working from Monday to Friday and working overtime on weekends, meeting customers during the day and writing documents at night has become Gao Xiang's daily routine. After several years of training, Gao Xiang has become more and more mature, and his business has become more and more fierce.

The law firm's working time is 8 o'clock in the morning, and this morning, Gao Xiang arrived at the office at 7:45 a.m. Today she is on duty.

Law firms have a lawyer duty system, where a practicing lawyer from the law firm is assigned a trainee lawyer on duty. The purpose is mainly to give trainee lawyers the opportunity to exercise, but considering that the trainee lawyers are not experienced enough after all, in order to ensure the reputation of the law firm, a practicing lawyer is specially matched to give guidance. In addition to the lawyers who are partners, ordinary lawyers are all on duty in turns. Cases accepted on duty days are the law firm's public case source, and are to be distributed by the law firm in accordance with the firm's lawyers' professional expertise. The staff on duty will be rewarded if the negotiation of the case is successful. If the case to be negotiated happens to be within the scope of the duty lawyer's business, priority will be given to the duty lawyer and the trainee lawyer to undertake the case on their own, except for 30% of the income handed over to the firm, and the remaining business income will be distributed by the duty lawyer and the trainee lawyer according to a certain proportion.

On the front desk of the 26th floor, there is a conference room on the left, and the partners meeting is underway. To the right of the front desk, there is a small rectangular negotiation room, which is the duty room. The duty room is about ten square meters in size, with a rectangular bench table with two chairs on each side of the table. The duty lawyer and the trainee lawyer sit on the side of the wall, and the two chairs at the entrance are for the client to sit on.

The trainee lawyer on duty with Gao Xiang today is Xiao Qiu, who just graduated this year, and graduated from Nanzheng University. The director of the firm and several partners are all graduates of Nanzheng University, so the firm has a special preference for students of Nanzheng University. For students who are not at the Southern School of Political Science, there is no LLM level, and the firm will generally not consider it. The university that Gao Xiang studied at that time, according to the scores, belonged to the second admission, and was a comprehensive university, not a specialized law college. If he had not worked in the Legislative Affairs Office of the government and had cooperated with the lawyers of the firm beforehand, he would not have met the conditions for admission to the firm.

Xiao Qiu put down the phone, he had just answered a telephone consultation about a loan dispute. He recorded the content of the telephone consultation on the duty record sheet and said, "Lawyer Gao, it's almost half past four, and the partners' meeting may be about to end." ”

In order to facilitate Xiao Qiu to answer telephone inquiries at any time through the computer, Gao Xiang left the position in front of the computer to Xiao Qiu, and he himself took the file and studied the new cases.

Gao Xiang sighed and did not look up.

"Five people, lawyer Gao, you are the youngest, you opened up new clients last year, although the number of your clients is not the largest, but the amount of business brought by new clients, among the five people, you rank third." Xiao Qiu couldn't help it, and said, "You are so powerful, if it were me, I would choose you." He sincerely hopes that Gao Xiang can be selected as a partner. He is now in the internship period, and Gao Xiang is his instructor.

The law firm is in the process of recruiting two junior partners, and two of the five candidates will be selected on the basis of merit.

"Not in his position, not in his politics." Gao Xiang raised his head and said, "Xiao Qiu, you are not a senior partner, this is not a problem you need to consider. Her dark eyes were calm and serious.

Xiao Qiu pursed his lips and nodded. Listening to Gao Xiang's calm tone, looking at Gao Xiang's seemingly indifferent appearance, he thought to himself: "Your affairs, do you really not care?" Xiao Qiu thought to himself, and he didn't dare to ask.

As the two spoke, the little girl at the front desk led a young woman to the door.

Gao Xiang and Xiao Qiu stood up and smiled.

Although the door was open, Xiao Gunian still knocked lightly on the door twice.

"You may be seated." Gao Xiang stretched out his hand to signal.

Before the little girl left, she thoughtfully closed the door.

Xiao Qiu poured a glass of water for the female customer.

"Hello, do you have any questions?" Xiao Qiu said with a warm smile.

"Which of the two of you has a higher level?" The woman spoke, she was wearing sunglasses, but she didn't take them off, and she looked picky. The frames of her sunglasses were so large that they covered half of her face.

Xiao Qiu was stunned for a moment and said, "I am a trainee lawyer, and this is Lawyer Gao." ”

"I don't want too many people to know about my business." The woman said to Xiao Qiu, she glanced at Xiao Qiu, the corners of her mouth curled, and the meaning of "please leave" was very clear.

"I am lawyer Gao, Xiao Qiu is my assistant, according to the law firm's system, we are responsible for today's duty reception, and Xiao Qiu's job is to be responsible for the reception and consultation records." Gao Xiang said to the woman.

"My question involves my personal privacy. Don't record it. The woman said.

"When it comes to customer privacy, we can not record in detail according to the customer's request, then, we will use Ms. X as your proxy to make the necessary simple records." Gao Xiang Road.

……

After some conversation, the woman's face was covered by sunglasses, and she said, her tone was dissatisfied and angry: "If you can't win, what's the use of finding a lawyer?!" ”

"The lawyer is useless---- Xiao Qiu said angrily.

"Xiao Qiu ---" Gao Xiang interrupted Xiao Qiu and said to the young woman: "The verdict was made by the judge, not by the lawyer. The possible outcome I have just mentioned is a reasonable risk assessment of the outcome of the litigation based on the information you have provided and the provisions of the law. ”

"I can't get the house and car, what else do I need a lawyer for?" The woman was aggressive, said.

"A lawyer can only protect the legitimate interests of his client." Gao Xiang endured the anger in his heart, and his tone was neither arrogant nor humble, and said.

"What, what do you mean by that?" The woman screamed, "Do you mean to say that my interests are not legitimate?" The house and car were not stolen by me, but given to me voluntarily by the family. ”

"My words mean it literally." Gao Xiang said: "The reasons and laws are what I told you just now. If you don't understand, I can explain it again for you. ”

"Hmph, no need." The woman sat in a chair, her chest heaving and her emotions seemed to be agitated. After a while, she got up and said, "Lawyer Gao, leave a phone number for me, and if that woman decides to sue, I will contact you again." ”

The woman took Gao Xiang's business card and left the reception room.

Xiao Qiu watched the woman walk towards the elevator and muttered in a low voice, "What personal privacy?" Isn't it just a junior? Now that I've been discovered by someone's wife, I can't keep the house and car----"

"Xiao Qiu, don't talk about the rights and wrongs of the client in the law firm afterwards." Gao Xiang interrupted Xiao Qiu and said, "To be a lawyer, you must have ----."

"Ethics!" Xiao Qiu grimaced at Gao Xiang, picked up Gao Xiang's words, and said, "I know, I just can't get used to her arrogant appearance." ”

Gao Xiang shook his head, with a helpless smile on his face, and said, "Young man, don't be too angry. ”

Xiao Qiu also smiled, showing his cute little tiger teeth, and said, "Lawyer Gao, the people in the firm told me that everyone likes to call you hot Lawyer Gao." ”

The little girl at the front desk arrived at the door and said, "Lawyer Gao, Director Wang said, please come to his office." ”

"Lawyer Gao, go quickly, I'll help you pack up the case file and put it in your booth." Xiao Qiu Dao, stretched out two fingers towards Gao Xiang, and made a V-shaped victory pose.

"Thank you." Gao Xiang said, she took her mobile phone and walked out.
