Chapter 101: The Value of Fu Lichen's Name
Fu Lichen looked at Mr. Yuan with a calm expression.
Seeing that Mr. Yuan was full of apprehension, he slowly hooked his lips and smiled.
No one even asked, so he took the initiative to pick up the wine glass on the table, saluted Mr. Yuan, and said lightly: "Mr. Yuan is polite." ”
After speaking, he also drank the wine in the cup in one gulp.
Mr. Yuan didn't expect that he could get such courtesy, he was first flattered, and then he was a little panicked.
At this time, Mr. Yuan no longer had the idea of demonstrating against Fu Lichen before.
On the contrary, because Fu Lichen was a little more pleasant, he became overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "Where, it is still Lawyer Fu who appreciates his face." ”
Fu Lichen calmly talked to Mr. Yuan, but never mentioned the matter of entrusting an agent.
In the end, Mr. Yuan couldn't hold his breath and whispered tentatively: "Regarding our contract, I don't know what Lawyer Fu means now?" ”
They were all cautious when they said this, and they didn't dare to persecute at all.
Fu Lichen smiled slightly, and responded slowly: "Since Lawyer Yu has promised not to charge extra to represent you, then this entrustment contract is valid." ”
Before Mr. Yuan could be happy, he heard Fu Lichen's words change again, and said, "But you may have misunderstood what Lawyer Yu meant." It was Lawyer Yu and Lawyer Lu who promised not to charge any extra fees to represent you in the second instance, not including me. ”
"Li Chen!" Yu Yingying shouted in panic.
She never thought that Fu Lichen would quit at this time.
The reason is still so high-sounding - didn't Fu Lichen never give Xirong Company any promises? The principal-agent contract between him and Xirong Company had no legal effect at all.
But Fu Lichen didn't refuse sooner or later, but at this time he cleared up the relationship, didn't he embarrass her!
Yu Yingying's face darkened.
Fu Lichen didn't seem to see it, ignored Yu Yingying, and continued to say slowly: "Mr. Yuan rarely goes to Haishi, so he may not know." The agency fee for my risk agent is at least 30% of the subject matter of the case. I can't take this case. ”
The contingency contract between the lawyer and the client is the equivalent of a bet.
How much a lawyer can get in legal fees depends on how much money he can get back for his client.
This kind of risk is too great, and it is very likely that you will work hard and hard, and in the end you will not get any money, and you will have to pay for the case.
Therefore, generally only those barristers who have a certain reputation and are very confident in winning the case will choose risk representation.
As for the amount of the contingency fee, it also shows the fame and value of this lawyer.
Fu Lichen either does not accept the case of risk agency, or the agency fee will definitely not be less than 30% of the subject amount.
Yu Yingying naturally knew his rules, but she thought that she had already moved Fu Lichen, and she didn't expect Fu Lichen to bring it up at this juncture.
Mr. Yuan was full of resentment about paying them 20% of the risk agency fee before, but now Fu Lichen added 10% of the agency fee as soon as he opened his mouth, which didn't deliberately make the other party refuse, so he retreated logically?
I have to say that Fu Lichen's every step of the arrangement is so precise and appropriate, which makes people have to admire his meticulous thinking.
When Yu Yingying couldn't laugh at all at this time, she only felt a wave of anger blocking her chest, almost choking her to death.
Fu Lichen's behavior like this is not deliberately making her faceless in front of the client!
However, before Yu Yingying could attack, Mr. Yuan had already lost his ugly look, and seemed to have thought about it carefully, his eyes showed solemnity, looked at Fu Lichen, and asked: "Is it that as long as our company can raise the standard of contingency fees to 30%, Lawyer Fu is willing to take our case?" ”
As soon as these words came out, not to mention that the young man and the contact person who followed Mr. Yuan looked suspicious, even Yu Yingying and the others were full of disbelief.
Fu Lichen just reported his 'worth', and he didn't even officially say anything about raising the price, and the other party actually relented first.
Isn't that incredible?
Fu Lichen looked calm, "If your company is willing to pay the corresponding agency fee, then I am naturally happy to cooperate with your company." ”
Mr. Yuan gritted his teeth and said, "Okay! That's what you say! Regardless of the outcome of this case, our firm is willing to pay 30% of the proceeds as attorney's fees. ”
"Mr. Yuan, will this be ......" The contact person couldn't help but shout.
Mr. Yuan waved his hand to interrupt his words and said coldly: "Needless to say, I have already decided." Tomorrow I will send our company's in-house counsel to sign a supplementary agency contract with you. ”
In this way, a 30% risk contingency fee was set.
When Fu Lichen and Mr. Yuan raised their glasses again, the others still couldn't react.
Especially Xu Xiaxi.
She snapped her fingers and calculated: Fu Lichen could charge an agency fee of 800,000 yuan if he didn't do anything, but now he has increased the standard of agency fees by 50% in just a few words, which means that Fu Lichen can get an agency fee of 1.2 million yuan while lying down......
It's too, too, too easy to earn!
It's like being able to pick up money while you're sitting.
Xu Xiaxi, a little wealth fan, was 'jealous' and red-eyed.
But on the other hand, she also knew that the reason why this Mr. Yuan was so relieved was that he took a fancy to Fu Lichen's reputation and was subdued by Fu Lichen all of a sudden.
Otherwise, if you change the number of segments to a lower one, not only will it be impossible to increase the agency fee, but you may also be cleaned up by Mr. Yuan!
The current Mr. Yuan is almost like the arrogant man he saw when he came in just now.
lowered his eyebrows, no longer saw his toes arrogant, and politely greeted Fu Lichen: "Lawyer Fu's willingness to take this case is our Xirong's blessing, if you have any requirements, you can do it for us." As long as it is within our reach, I will do my best to accommodate you. ”
Fu Lichen didn't care about those fictitious ones, and asked directly: "I heard from Lawyer Yu before, you have found some new evidence that can prove the cost of building your factory?" ”
Mr. Yuan saw that he had already offered attractive conditions, and Fu Lichen did not take the opportunity to knock them again as he expected, but immediately entered the working state, and was a little more satisfied with this well-known barrister in Haishi.
When he replied, he added a little frankness, "During the second trial, we did collect some new evidence, but our in-house counsel has limited familiarity with the litigation case, and he can't check whether the evidence is useful or not, so we want to wait for you to read it before handing it in."
It's not early today, you are tired, why don't you have a good rest first, and wait until tomorrow morning, I will let Xiao Wang pick you up to the company for an in-depth understanding? ”
Fu Lichen had no opinion, and agreed on a time with Mr. Yuan.
In the end, a reception banquet can be regarded as a joy for the guests and hosts, and each has its own place.
Fu Lichen's room is upstairs in the hotel.
Xu Xiaxi didn't want to continue to trouble the client, so he took the ID cards of the four people to the front desk to register.
When she got the room card and walked to the rest area with a tangled face, she found that there was another team of people in the rest area besides them.
The leader is Xu Xiaxi, who is no stranger, and officially in Chen Jing's case, the ace lawyer Li Xianbo who defended Luo Hui.
Last time, Li Xianbo challenged Fu Lichen by defending Luo Hui, but he didn't expect that not only did he fail to embarrass Fu Lichen, but he was defeated in disgrace.
After that, Xu Xiaxi didn't see Li Xianbo again, and thought that this person was afraid of Fu Lichen, so he automatically consciously retreated.
I didn't expect to meet it in the Great Northwest.
The atmosphere in the lounge area is a bit wrong.
Xu Xiaxi wisely didn't speak, and silently walked behind Fu Lichen and pretended to be mushrooms.
Li Xianbo smiled at Fu Lichen, and said in a strange tone: "Lawyer Fu, it's been more than half a year since I said goodbye last time, but I didn't expect to meet you in Xishi, it's really a coincidence."
I'm here to represent a case over a housing lease contract dispute, and I don't know what Mr. Fu is here for? ”
When Xu Xiaxi heard the key words, his expression froze, and he immediately turned his head to look at the contact person of Xirong Company, who looked embarrassed and whispered to him: "This lawyer is the defendant's lawyer." ”
Xu Xiaxi was speechless, and secretly said that this is really a coincidence!
Unexpectedly, when they met again, they were on the opposite side again - Xu Xiaxi felt that he had smelled the smell of gunsmoke.
Fu Lichen's expression was indifferent, and the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked, "Lawyer Li is so powerful, will he not know my intention?" I thought that Mr. Li already knew that I was Xirong's agent, so he was waiting for me here! ”
directly broke Li Xianbo's ill intentions, although Fu Lichen is good at hypocrisy and wrongdoing, he has never been too lazy to deal with people who don't care.
Li Xianbo and Fu Lichen have clashed several times, and they still know a little bit about Fu Lichen's straightforwardness.
Although he was a little embarrassed, he quickly calmed down and said with a smile: "Look at what Lawyer Fu said, I didn't hear that Xirong specially invited a well-known barrister from Haishi to represent this case for the second trial, so I came to visit, but I didn't expect it to be an old acquaintance."
I can only say that Xirong was really lucky this time, and he actually invited our lawyer Fu! ”
Although Lee Hyun Bo said words of praise, his tone was strange, and it was uncomfortable to listen to.
Fu Lichen was calm and calmly responded: "If you really want to say that the luck is Lawyer Li's client, Yiya Company!" After all, Mr. Li has never accepted civil cases with a bid amount of less than 200 million, but this time he made an exception for Yiya Company, which is really surprising! ”
A trace of embarrassment flashed in Li Xianbo's eyes, but before he could speak, Fu Lichen had already leisurely answered: "We happened to meet here so much, if I were a little more affectionate, I am afraid that Lawyer Li took this case because of me!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Xu Xiaxi obviously saw Li Xianbo's smile frozen on his face, and his eyes could no longer be turned to Fu Lichen as defiantly as before, but avoided it in embarrassment.
After a while, he smiled awkwardly: "Lawyer Fu, you are really good at laughing." ”
Fu Lichen shrugged his shoulders and responded lightly: "Since Lawyer Li is interested, I will naturally accompany him to the end." ”
is a pun, a good response to Li Xianbo's provocation.
