"Lawyer Fang, do you think that if my case is found to be the crime of illegal disposal and seizure of property, I will be sentenced to a few years?" Liu Qiaoling asked with a frown.

"It's hard to say, but I think the best outcome is that you get a suspended sentence and don't have to serve your sentence in jail. Of course, whether your actions will eventually be recognized by the court as the crime of illegally disposing of seized property requires reading the case file before making a final judgment. Fang Yi said.

Before reading the file, Fang Yi didn't dare to make a casual judgment, in case what the parties said did not match the situation reflected in the case file, and the result of the case did not meet expectations, not only would he smash his own brand, but he might also be complained about and asked for a refund. Working in vain and being scolded, this is not what Fang Yi is pursuing.

"Well, I see. If I entrust you, will you appear in court or another lawyer? How are lawyer fees charged? Liu Qiaoling asked.

"Your case will be handled by me......" Fang Yi felt Xie Youhe's foot under the table kick him lightly in the middle of his words.

"Ms. Liu, Lawyer Fang is our senior lawyer, who is good at criminal cases and has rich experience in court trials, if he undertakes your case, the lawyer's fee will be 50,000 yuan. Think about it, and if you agree, you can sign it today. Xie Youhe took Fang Yi's words and said.

"Fifty thousand yuan!" Liu Qiaoling bit her lip, her face was a little embarrassed, but when she thought of squatting in prison: "Well, you let me think about it, and I'll write back to you in the next two days." ”

"Okay, if you're decided, give us a call and we'll have all the materials you need to sign ready." Xie Youhe smiled.

Sent Liu Qiaoling away, and on the way back to the station, Fang Yi asked in a low voice, "Was our offer too high just now?" I think it's hard for me to see what she meant. ”

Xie Youhe glanced at Fang Yi: "You, you're still too kind, we don't have any background, and it doesn't matter, we all rely on professionalism to make a living, if love is overflowing, it's easy to work hard, and you can't eat in the end." Let's go, smoke one! ”

After Fang Yi put the notebook back at his workstation, he followed Xie Youhe to the terrace. On the terrace, there were many lawyers smoking and chatting.

Coming to a corner, Xie Youhe took out a Coke can from behind a flower pot and placed it on the fence of the terrace.

Seeing Fang Yi staring at the Coke can, Xie Youhe said with a smile: "This is my special ashtray, many lawyers used to like to flick the ash into the flower pot, and then the law firm issued a rule that it is not allowed to do this again, and whoever will be punished will be punished." There are not enough ashtrays, and we veteran smokers have to bring our own ashtrays. ”

Fang Yi smiled knowingly, then took out a Huazi and handed it to Xie Youhe, Comrade Xie is good at this, what cigarette do you give, what cigarette does he smoke, don't pick! Anyway, as long as you don't smoke your own.

Before Fang Yi's addiction to cigarettes, he couldn't smoke a few cigarettes a day, and he would only smoke cigarettes when he stayed up late to read the case file. But since joining Gu Datong's team and being colleagues with Xie You and this old smoker, his addiction to smoking has gradually grown, basically half a pack of cigarettes a day.

Huazi only smokes when he goes to the terrace with Xie Youhe, and he usually smokes red plums at home.

Some people say that "Huazi is the face, and the red plum is the lining", which is a bit reasonable, when he was in graduate school, he had no money in his pocket, and he survived the days of hard study one after another by smoking red plums. Although he is not as poor as he was at the beginning, he doesn't want to forget those poor days, so he often takes out red plums to smell them and smoke one to motivate himself to work hard to make money, find back his former self, his former life, and "lie down and taste guts"!

Soon two wisps of smoke slowly rose up, and a gust of hot wind blew, driving away the slowly rising smoke.

Xie Youhe flicked the cigarette ash at the Coke can, and looked into the distance with a misty look: "When I first practiced the law, I met a client, he was running a business, and he often asked me to review the contract or write a complaint, and every time he paid, he would cry poor, saying that the company was not easy to do, the cost was high, and so on, in a word, he didn't want to pay more."

I saw that he was quite pitiful, and I gave him a discount every time, and I could charge 100 and 50, and I would give him free if I could get free. Until one day, I suddenly saw a photo of him taking his family on a trip abroad on a plane, and it happened just a month ago. I couldn't tell what it was like.

Later, he came to me again to review the contract, but I didn't give him a discount, and he was so unhappy that he never came to me again.

Later, I figured out that our legal services have a cost, take school as an example, if you study hard in school for many years, if you don't pay tuition and accommodation fees, will the school continue to teach you knowledge and issue you a certificate? I'm afraid you would have been ordered to drop out of school a long time ago, because compulsory education is only nine years, and knowledge has to be paid!

For another example, if we are practicing lawyers, the law firm rents a house, and there is no cost to hire people. Food, clothing, housing and transportation for lawyers are the same as costs.

The bank is richer than us, the big financier, which of the services it provides is free, and it costs dozens of yuan a year to get a text message notification. The communication company has money, if you don't pay to try, no service will give you.

They can all be cheeky and shameless to provide paid services with a lot of resources, and they are not discounted, why should our lawyers provide free or cheap services!

Of course, I don't recommend that you be as black as some lawyers, but at least you can't lose yourself. That's why you have the idea of pitiful people in the world. Everything should be decided by the market. ”

Fang Yi didn't speak, just kept nodding, he understood the reason, but he couldn't help but think about the discount sign.

"There are large and small law firms, lawyers with strong ability and weak ability, there are those with wide resources and those with poor resources, the fees are naturally high and low, some people eat meat, someone has to drink soup, if there is no soup left, then it is too bad.

The parties need to be screened, not all legal needs can be met, and not all parties can afford to pay the fees, only the group of parties who can afford the fees are our real target customers.

The name of Jinshi Law Firm is still very well-known in the city, and it is well-known, not only because of the strong ability of the lawyers, the professional support given to us by the head office in Beijing, but more importantly, the publicity. In such a large law firm with a good reputation, many of the parties who come to us have a certain economic strength.

If you charge a small law firm as the standard, and end up wasting all your energy on low-fee cases, not only will you not be able to improve your professional ability, but you will also not have the energy to take on big cases.

This is like catching fish, our mesh should be larger, and some small fish and shrimp that are too low cost will leak out. Xie Youhe said with a smile.

Xie Youhe's words finally made Fang Yi find the problem, he had been in the Justice Law Firm for a long time, and suddenly changed to a big platform, his subconscious was still the theory of a small law firm taking cases, which seemed to need to be adjusted.
