Lawyer's character

"Lawyer Fang, can't we make a judgment based on the contents of the judgment?" Jiang Lan asked in confusion.

"The contents in the judgment may be true, but there are many details that can only be discovered by looking at the case files. Details determine success or failure. The judgment can only give me an understanding of the general facts of the case.

To put it simply, it is like going to a tertiary-A hospital to see a doctor. The doctor at the tertiary-A hospital does not approve of the examination that the patient has done at the tertiary-A hospital. He has to do another examination. The main reason is that he is afraid of misdiagnosis and has to check again by himself. Again.

In the same way, if your husband is dissatisfied with the first-instance judgment, the second-instance court will definitely review the entire case and will not only read the first-instance judgment because the amount of information is limited.

As a lawyer, if you take on this case, you must not just look at the first-instance judgment, because that will miss many details. "After Fang Yi finished speaking, he looked at the mother and son opposite.

"Oh, I understand when you say that. You are still responsible. Then do you think there is hope for my old Xu's case?" Jiang Lan looked at Fang Yi's expression attentively, trying to find a trace of it on his face. comfort.

Fang Yi's words reminded her of her last year's visit to a tertiary hospital in the city to register as a specialist and see a doctor. She firmly believed what Fang Yi said just now.

"I think there is a chance in this case, but the current case file materials are limited. I only judge based on experience and cannot give a clear answer." Fang Yi thought for a moment and said.

"Well, Lawyer Fang, if this case is entrusted to you, how much will the legal fees be?" Jiang Lan continued to ask.

"This case of yours was not handled by me in the first instance, so the workload of the second instance was relatively large, and it was not in this city, so the legal fees were relatively high, 200,000 yuan." Fang Yi quoted.

"Two hundred thousand..." Jiang Lan muttered and looked at his son, asking for his opinion.

"Lawyer Fang, do you think we can do this? We'll pay a fee first, and you'll go to the court to read the file, then go to the detention center to meet with my dad, and then we'll discuss the entrustment.

Now we don’t even know the expected results. We are both confused and feel really uneasy. We are not doubting your professional ability... I hope you can understand! Xu Chen hesitated and said.

Fang Yi understands Xu Chen's doubts. Nothing has been discussed yet. He doesn't know the best outcome. He feels a little unsure about paying 200,000 yuan in legal fees. What if there is no hope for this case... This money is wasted.

However, Xu Chen believed that Fang Yi would not deceive him due to his reputation. Otherwise, Fang Yi would not have accumulated such a good reputation over the years.

"Okay, the fee is 30,000 yuan. The two cities compare the price of 2,000 yuan for the near-term travel expenses, all-inclusive. If entrusted later, the 30,000 yuan can be used to offset the legal fees for the later entrusted cases." Fang Yi was very happy.

"Okay, can we sign the formalities and pay the fee now?" Xu Chen asked. He didn't want the matter to drag on for too long.

More than half an hour later, Fang Yi and Yun Qiao sent mother and son out of the law firm.

When Wu Qinghui saw Yun Qiao coming back, he hurriedly came over: "How are you? Have you signed it?"

"I signed it, but I paid 30,000 yuan to meet and review the papers in the early stage. If I entrust you with it later, this fee will be included in the entrusted lawyer's fees.

Tell your friends that the money will not be used for now, and we will see if they entrust it later. If so, we will pay you the fees after the case is completed. If the other party does not entrust you, Lawyer Fang will directly pay the channel fee to you. Yun Qiao said and handed the entrustment agreement to Wu Qinghui.

"I won't read the agreement. They are all on the same team. I can trust you and Boss Fang. I will call my friend in a while and tell him." Wu Qinghui did not accept the agreement and directly pushed it back.

The case was coming. Yun Qiao didn't expect that he would be on vacation soon and would have to go to the detention center and the intermediate hospital in the next city. He had no choice but to do it since Boss Fang ordered it.

At around seven o'clock the next morning, Fang Yi and Yun Qiao drove the Maybach toward the next city. Along the way, Yun Qiao was satisfied with her car addiction.

At ten o'clock in the morning, the two walked into the detention center and met with Xu Qiguo, who confessed to the facts described in the verdict without objection.

Fang Yi looked across the stainless steel fence at Xu Qiguo, who was a little fatter, and asked: "When you asked the village accountant to pay the first two million loan to the training school, did you ask for any benefits?"

"No, I just wanted to put the money in a bank account and leave it there so that I could make some money for the village by lending it out. That's the idea. Later, when I borrowed another six million, the village committee member told me The idea is the same, they all want to make more money for the village.

The cultural level of our group is not high, and we always feel that it is good to make some money for the village. We are afraid of being poor! Xu Qiguo's eyes were full of regret and reluctance: "Lawyer Fang, I really want to bring some benefits to the village, and I didn't embezzle the village's money. How could it be misappropriation of public funds?" This money didn’t go into my pocket. "

"Who did the training school pay the interest on the loan?" Fang Yi then asked.

"Give it to the village. It's all business-to-business payments, and there are accounts that can be checked." Xu Qiguo said confidently.

Fang Yi saw that he didn't seem to be telling lies: "Why is the annual interest rate on the loan mentioned before different from the annual interest rate on the loan later?"

"The loan before was small, only 2 million in total, so we agreed upon an annual payment of 10% as soon as we discussed it. Later, Tang Jianyao, the boss of the training school, came to me again and said he wanted to borrow 6 million.

I told him that the amount was too big and I couldn't decide it alone. I had to hold a meeting and the two million I borrowed before would be included in it. He said it was no problem. But the interest rate has to be reduced. The interest rate agreed before was too high. Later we agreed on an annual rate of 8%.

Although I borrowed the first two million privately, I didn't get any benefits, and the village committee meeting later ratified the money. It shouldn’t be considered that I embezzled public funds! "Xu Qiguo explained.

“Well, there is indeed something wrong with this case.

In the afternoon, we will go to the Intermediate Court in the city to review the case files. After we read the case files, if your lover continues to entrust us later, we will come over to meet you again and tell you the defense plan.

Do I need to save some more money for you, or give you some clothes? "Fang Yi asked.

"No, they just gave me clothes last week, and the money is enough." Xu Qiguo shook his head.

After having a meal in the city at noon, Fang Yi and Yun Qiao walked into the gate of the Intermediate Court as soon as the Intermediate Court went to work in the afternoon. Perhaps because it was the Spring Festival holiday, there were relatively few people, so they completed the marking quickly.

Yun Qiao drove the car and the two began to walk back.

"How is it? Is this car comfortable to drive?" Fang Yi asked with a smile.

"Hey! It's okay for a short distance. After driving for more than an hour, even a good car makes me tired." Yun Qiao was already starting to feel a little tired of driving.

"When you get to the front in a moment, you stop the car and let me drive." Fang Yi said.
