Lawyer

Chapter 237 New Colleagues

After receiving the commission of the lawyer's fee for Hu Weijun's case, Fang Yi called Zhou Shen and asked him for a bank account, intending to transfer his commission to it.

Zhou Shen knew that the law firm had to deduct 40.00% of the lawyer's fee, and Fang Yi actually got more than 5 yuan after deduction of personal income tax, so he only needed 20.00% of the lawyer's fee ([-] yuan) as the case source referral fee.

When Zhou Shen cooperates with the criminal team of Jinshi Law Firm, he is responsible for providing the source of the case, and the criminal team is responsible for handling the case. Because the cases recommended by Zhou Shen are sporadic and unstable, the lawyer fees are divided between the parties.

This time, Zhou Shen only charged 20.00% of the legal fee according to the market price. On the one hand, he took care of Fang Yi because of his relationship with his brother; on the other hand, and most importantly, he still wanted to draw Fang Yi into his team .

In mid-June, Fang Yi moved to the city. Originally, Li Shuming wanted to vacate a staff dormitory for him in Huihuang, but Fang Yi felt that living in Li Shuming's Huihuang would delay his business, and now that he had some money in his pocket, renting a house was not a problem. , so I rented a one-bedroom apartment in an old community near Jinshi Law Firm.

Fang Yi asked Li Shuming to do something, and Fang Anzhi was arranged to enter the experimental middle school. He only had to go to the experimental middle school to report and attend classes after the school started in September.

Cao Xiaohui didn't expect Fang Yi to actually complete the matter that she had spent a long time but still had nothing to do, and it was an experimental middle school with a high enrollment rate, so she couldn't help being surprised.

Experimental Middle School is a key middle school in the city. It is much stronger than the No. [-] Middle School in the county. It recruits new students very strictly every year. There are a lot of parents who want to send their children to study through their connections. Although Experimental Middle School is not as good as the number one foreign language school , but it is still hot, and it is not accessible to ordinary students.

For this reason, Fang Yi specially invited Li Shuming to have a "big meal", a box of beer, a plate of peanuts, and a plate of donkey meat in sauce. The two drank for half the night.

On this day, Fang Yi was wearing a dark suit, carrying a dark leather briefcase (a brand-name bag given by Li Shuming to congratulate him on entering the city's law firm), and wearing shiny leather boots that he had polished in the morning, and walked into the office of Jinshi Law Firm. door.

In order to make a good impression on the boss, Fang Yi went to the hair salon yesterday and spent tens of dollars on a haircut.Although it took only twenty minutes to walk from his residence to the law firm, he got up very early. After breakfast, he waited for more than an hour before going out.

The little girl at the front desk of the law firm led Fang Yi to Gu Datong's office.Gu Datong was busy looking at the documents, and after a brief chat with Fang Yi, he handed him over to a girl in her 20s named Mei Xiaoting, asking her to introduce Fang Yi to the team members, and welcome him to dinner at night. Fang Yi joined.

Fang Yi saw that Mei Xiaoting was petite and handsome, with a festive baby face and a good talker, so he asked her about the situation of the team.

"Lawyer Fang, how many years have you practiced?" Mei Xiaoting asked Fang Yi as she took Fang Yi to the team's workstation.

"I have been a full-time lawyer for two years, and I have been teaching in schools and working as a part-time lawyer before." Fang Yi smiled.

"Oh, then you must be very theoretical and an academic lawyer." Mei Xiaoting said.

Fang Yi smiled, said nothing, and thought: After so many years in the university, without any achievements, the academic theory is almost abandoned.

The two came to the public office area of ​​Jinshi Law Firm. Fang Yi looked around and saw a row of workstations. The first workstation in each row was pasted with a sign indicating a certain team or a certain team. a certain department.

The workstation is relatively spacious, so two people don’t feel crowded when working, and the partition is relatively high, so you can’t see the person opposite you after you sit down.

Fang Yi followed Mei Xiaoting to the work station of Gu Datong's team, just in time a female lawyer in her 30s with a poker face came over and asked coldly: "Xiaoting, the due diligence report on that project yesterday Have you finished?"

"Not yet, I'm working on it. I have a new colleague today. The boss asked me to bring them here to meet everyone." Mei Xiaoting seemed a little afraid of the poker face, and seemed a little cautious.

"New colleague?" The poker face followed Mei Xiaoting's eyes and looked at Fang Yi, looking up and down.

Mei Xiaoting hurriedly introduced: "Lawyer Sima, this is lawyer Fang Yifang. Lawyer Fang, this is lawyer Sima Jun. He is good at non-litigation business. He is the leader of our team's non-litigation business..."

"Hello, Lawyer Fang, welcome to join our team." Before Mei Xiaoting could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Sima Jun. Lawyer Sima said welcome words, but his tone made people feel cold.

"Hello, Lawyer Sima." Fang Yi smiled.When we met for the first time, he didn't like Sima Jun, but he didn't hate her either, he just didn't want to talk to her.

Sima Jun nodded, and left in a hurry.

Seeing Sima Jun leave, Mei Xiaoting shrank her neck, made a face, and then led Fang Yi to a male lawyer who was lying on the table reading documents.

"Lawyer Zhou, please excuse me. This is lawyer Fang Yifang, a new lawyer in our team who specializes in litigation." Mei Xiaoting introduced.

Lawyer Zhou raised his head, adjusted his black-rimmed glasses, stood up and smiled and said, "Hi Lawyer Fang, Zhou Yunyuan, we will be a family from now on, welcome." His smile made people feel warm.

"Hello, Lawyer Zhou. I will have to trouble you in the future." Fang Yi said politely.

"Lawyer Zhou is good at non-litigation and litigation work, and now he is mainly engaged in non-litigation work in the team. By the way, Boss Gu said to have dinner at night." Mei Xiaoting said playfully.At this time, Mei Xiaoting looked much more lively.

"Really, then I have to get the report out quickly, otherwise the client will call all day long, as if urging his life, and he won't be able to eat well at night." Zhou Yunyuan said excitedly: "Lawyer Fang, I'm sorry. I'll talk to you after the report is finished."

"You are busy first, excuse me..." Fang Yi knew that it was not easy to work in the team, so he did not dare to delay Lawyer Zhou's time.

"Lawyer Fang, let me take you to meet Xie You and Lawyer Xie, the second oldest members of the team. Xie Laokou... Sorry, Lawyer Xie is in charge of litigation. Currently, the team's litigation business is under his responsibility. After you join the team , is likely to be in charge of the litigation business with him." Mei Xiaoting murmured in a low voice.

"How is Lawyer Xie?" Fang Yi asked as he walked.

"He's a very nice person. Apart from being a bit old-fashioned and fond of taking advantage of small things, he has no major shortcomings." Mei Xiaoting said in a low voice: "He has a nickname, Xie Laokou, and everyone usually calls him that in private. , are used to it.”

"Thank you, Laokou?!" Fang Yi looked at Mei Xiaoting suspiciously.

"Don't look at him, but he usually has a lot of ideas, and his brain is flexible, he can turn fast, and he is better than a monkey when he glues his hair. Although we are younger than him, we really can't catch up with him in terms of brains. Right, crooked Yes, he can do it all!" Mei Xiaoting said in a low voice.
