Chapter 118: The Case Has Been Accepted, The Law Firm’s Reputation Must Continue to Be Expanded!
Faced with Wang Li’s general description.
Su Bai had already understood.
And after seeing Su Bai nod, Wang Li let out a light breath.
So long as Lawyer Su agreed to take this case.
Then this case would almost certainly have no problem.
And even if there were a problem.
According to Lawyer Su’s method of handling matters last time, there probably still would not be too great a problem!
Wang Li smiled and said: “Since Lawyer Su has accepted this case, then there will not be any problem.”
“To speak honestly, with respect to Lawyer Su’s ability, I trust it completely.”
As he spoke, Wang Li also raised his thumb and said another sentence:
“Lawyer Su, last time you helped defend me, and also helped Zhang Tongwei fight his case, and I still have not properly thanked you.”
“Although the legal fees were paid, that feeling cannot be avoided.”
“Lawyer Su, are you free tonight? I will treat you to a meal and also call Zhang Tongwei, when I previously mentioned Lawyer Su to him, that fellow also felt very grateful toward Lawyer Su in his heart.”
“Of course.”
“At that time Lawyer Li also helped us quite a lot, will Lawyer Li also come together?”
Faced with Wang Li’s enthusiastic invitation, Su Bai smiled and shook his head.
“Forget it, let us eat this meal later.”
“At present the law firm is relatively busy, and I cannot get away.”
“In that case, then after this case is finished.”
Wang Li spoke in a broad and cheerful manner.
“Mm!”
Su Bai slightly nodded.
Wang Li continued speaking: “Then Lawyer Su, I will leave first, after you determine the time to go to Shadu, I will go together with you.”
Wang Li’s thinking was very simple.
It was his distant relative after all.
If he went together with Lawyer Su, it would also be easier to make arrangements, after all this case was one in which he had asked Lawyer Su to go.
Everything absolutely had to be arranged properly.
Su Bai could see Wang Li’s thoughts, smiled, and did not say much, only nodded and said alright.
After Wang Li left.
Li Xuezhen stood to one side and asked: “Lawyer Su, this time when we accept the case, are we going to Shadu?”
“Mm!”
“We are going to Shadu to expand our business.”
Su Bai replied with a smile.
As the law firm’s business expanded along with the enlargement of the law firm, the scope it covered had also gradually begun to increase.
Li Xuezhen’s eyes lit up.
Shadu!
Judging from Wang Li’s description, this was another major case.
Only.
It was not known who would be randomly sent away this time.
What consecutive victory number was this now?
Forget it, do not worry about that first, first add the achievement point.
Hoo.
Little Li’s face was full of joy.
A case, a case, utterly delightful.
At Nandu University of Law, inside the girls’ dormitory.
Li Xuezhen was packing her luggage.
As graduation approached, fourth year students were all busy looking for internship jobs.
Inside the dormitory, apart from Wang Kexin with the bun hairstyle, no one else from Li Xuezhen’s dormitory was in the dorm.
“Xuezhen, I heard that you are going on a business trip tomorrow, right? Are you going out alone with Lawyer Su?”
Wang Kexin’s little gossip driven thoughts had surfaced, and as she lay on the bed, her bun hairstyle extended over the upper bunk guardrail, the small bun swayed, and her eyes, full of curiosity and anticipation, looked at Li Xuezhen.
“Yes, there is a case in Shadu, and we may need to go there for a few days.”
As Li Xuezhen packed her luggage, she replied with a serious expression on her small face.
Hearing this, Wang Kexin’s small bun moved a little further forward.
“Xuezhen.”
“Then when you and Lawyer Su go out and study the case together, you should have a lot of topics to talk about, right?”
Topics?
Li Xuezhen tilted her little head:
“There are quite a lot of topics, I remember during that Qi Feng case, and also during that Guo Xiaojun case when we went to Beidu, Lawyer Su and I had many topics.”
Wang Kexin’s small face showed delight, and her bun hairstyle moved forcefully further forward.
“Then what do you talk about? Quickly tell me.”
“What do we talk about?”
Little Li blinked: “Apart from talking about the case file, what else would we talk about?”
Wang Kexin: ????
“Did you not say that you and Lawyer Su had many topics? Was there nothing else you talked about?”
“Yes, there are many issues in the case file, so there are many topics, is that not normal? What else would we talk about?”
Wang Kexin: alright, I admit defeat.
Her small bun completely drooped down, she had picked the wrong gossip to follow.
Little Li smiled with narrowed eyes and added another strike: “Kexin, what is wrong?”
Wang Kexin drooped her small bun and withdrew her head: “Nothing, I was just curiously asking.”
“Oh.”
“Then alright.”
Little Li’s small face was full of smiles.
Inside Baijun law Firm.
Ever since Wang Li came to find Su Bai, two days had already passed.
Inside the office.
Han Chen was reporting to Su Bai on some recent summary and reporting conditions of the law firm.
“Lawyer Su, compared with last month, this month the law firm’s case acceptance rate has increased twofold.”
“Judging from the recent period of calls for consultation received by our law firm, by the end of the month the case acceptance rate may decline, but it will still remain at a fairly good quantity.”
“Alright.”
Su Bai took the recent summary materials regarding the law firm’s development from Han Chen’s hands.
He glanced through them roughly and slightly nodded.
What is the most important thing for a law firm?
Not only the level and reputation of the lawyers.
After gaining reputation, one gains sources of cases.
After the Qin Xiaofeng case ended.
The law firm’s case acceptance rate had visibly increased quite a bit.
This month’s performance had greatly improved.
It seemed that the law firm still needed to greatly enhance its reputation.
Su Bai silently recited this in his heart.
On the fifth day after Wang Li came to find Su Bai.
All matters of the law firm had already been handled.
Su Bai let out a long breath, drank a mouthful of the tea that he had gotten for free, and then called Wang Li.
“All the law firm’s matters have already been handled.”
“On my side, I can go to Shadu at any time.”
“At any time, oh oh, alright Lawyer Su, then how about we go tomorrow?”
“I have already greeted my distant relative’s side, I told them that Lawyer Su is the lawyer who sent the adjudicator in a few days ago, and they exclaimed six six six, and also said that when they meet you they will definitely properly thank Lawyer Su for taking this case.”
“I have already made all the arrangements on that side.”
“Oh right, Lawyer Su, for travel, are we going by car ourselves, or by high speed rail or plane?”
“I have already looked into it, from Nandu to Shadu by high speed rail it takes about four and a half hours, if driving, it takes a bit longer.”
Wang Li chattered on and on in one breath.
Su Bai rubbed his brow, Wang Li was truly quite attentive regarding this trip to Shadu.
“High speed rail.”
“Alright Lawyer Su, then I will book the tickets now.”
Wang Li said with a broad grin.
As for booking tickets, Su Bai directly booked them himself, for himself and Li Xuezhen together.
And he also informed Li Xuezhen to be ready for tomorrow’s trip to Shadu.
Upon hearing that they were about to depart for Shadu.
Li Xuezhen’s small face was joyful: “Alright Lawyer Su.”
“Lawyer Su, I have long been prepared, whenever we go is fine.”
Su Bai: looking at your little expression, it is not that you were long prepared to go to Shadu, it is that you were prepared to send someone in, right?
That small face was so happy.
It could not be concealed at all.
She had gone astray, she had truly gone astray.
Su Bai subconsciously searched online: what should be done if the intern one is bringing has gone astray.
Answer: regardless of in what aspect they have gone astray, it certainly has something to do with the person bringing the intern.
The one who tied the bell must untie it. It is recommended to proceed from the root and first straighten out the person bringing her.
Su Bai: ????
Looking at the answer, Su Bai felt somewhat offended.
Nonsense answer.
Not accurate at all.
Uninstalled!
Shadu, high speed rail station.
As soon as they exited the station, Wang Li had indeed arranged everything properly.
His distant relative was already waiting outside the station.
And accommodation had been arranged as well, they said they would stay at this distant relative’s home.
However, in order to avoid any other circumstances arising, Su Bai directly refused.
And after declining, they came to the hotel that he himself had booked.
As a matter of a criminal law firm’s responsibilities, one must properly handle entrusted matters.
However.
Relationships that become too close, this point, for a criminal lawyer, indeed had to be avoided.
Avoiding it meant avoiding certain unnecessary situations.
The most important thing was to protect one’s own personal safety.
Previously Su Bai had not said this directly to Wang Li.
After arriving in Shadu, Su Bai casually found a reason and explained things clearly to Wang Li and his relative.
Wang Li expressed: “Lawyer Su, understandable, understandable.”
Inside the hotel.
Su Bai briefly organized things, and then brought Li Xuezhen and Wang Li to the home of Wang Li’s distant relative.
Previously Wang Li had already introduced the situation to Su Bai.
This distant relative was also surnamed Wang.
The party sentenced to seven years of fixed term imprisonment, male, name: Wang Mingxuan, around forty years old.
The family’s conditions in Shadu could be considered fairly good, minor relocation household.
Originally Wang Mingxuan’s idea was to go out and haul some freight as a way to supplement the household income.
But unexpectedly he encountered this matter.
At home.
Wang Mingxuan’s wife, Xia Xue, warmly received Su Bai and Li Xuezhen.
“Lawyer Su.”
“This time I have troubled you to make this trip, I am troubling you.”
“Drink some water, drink some water.”
On the table there were also two cups of steaming hot boiled water.
Su Bai smiled: “Alright, let us not hurry with drinking water first.”
“The main thing is that I still want to continue understanding the situation in greater depth.”
“Alright, alright.”
“Lawyer Su, please ask.”
Wang Li’s previous statement had merely expressed the general situation of the case, but had not examined it in detail.
Regarding this case, Su Bai could not make an in depth judgment.
Asking Wang Mingxuan’s wife in advance would help in making a good judgment.
Su Bai looked at Wang Mingxuan’s wife, and very clearly.
During the period Wang Mingxuan had been detained, judging from Xia Xue’s complexion, she had been very exhausted.
After taking a deep breath.
Su Bai had Li Xuezhen prepare to take notes, and then asked:
“This case was prosecuted by the supervisory authority as a negligent crime, correct?”
“Mm, yes Lawyer Su.”
“Then the family of the hitchhiking passenger, when public prosecution was initiated, the relevant lawyer should have asked you whether you wanted to obtain the family’s letter of understanding, right?”
“They asked. The lawyer told us that obtaining the family’s understanding might result in a lighter sentence.”
“We also went to find their family and wanted to obtain their understanding.”
“But they opened their mouths and demanded one million.”
“Although we underwent relocation, where could we have that kind of money.”
“And.”
“The other side kept insisting that we were murderers, and that if it had not been for us, their child would not have died.”
“They absolutely demanded that we pay one million for understanding, and not one penny less would do.”
“They even raised the price when we hesitated, saying that we had to add another two hundred thousand.”
“There was no way, we directly said forget it.”
“But who could have imagined that the sentence would be so heavy.”
“After that we asked people everywhere, wanting to find a good lawyer.”
“And so we found Lawyer Su you.”
After hearing Xia Xue’s description, Su Bai slightly nodded.
The specific situation would still need to be judged after reviewing the case file.
However.
A sentence of seven years of fixed term imprisonment for negligently causing death.
This could be said to be the maximum sentence.
Such a judgment was unreasonable.
Could this perhaps be another situation like the Qin Xiaofeng case?
Su Bai smiled slightly, if it was that kind of situation.
Then Baijun law Firm could once again expand its reputation.
Su Bai smiled and nodded: “All the relevant questions have already been asked, do you have anything you want to ask or anything you want to say?”
“If not, then we can first sign the letter of entrustment.”
“Only with the letter of entrustment can the specific circumstances of the case be further understood.”
“Alright alright alright, sign.”
Xia Xue nodded and said.
Su Bai had Li Xuezhen take the entrustment contract out of the briefcase and place it on the table.
After Xia Xue briefly glanced through it, she then signed her name in the column for the entrusting party.
After confirming that everything was correct.
Xia Xue asked somewhat worriedly: “Lawyer Su, in this case, approximately how many years will my husband be sentenced to?”
“I told him at the time not to go drive, but he insisted on driving, he insisted on wanting to supplement the household income, and now this matter has happened.”
“And now if he really is sentenced to seven years, then these seven years, what are we to do.”
As she spoke, Xia Xue changed from worry into complaint, and then from complaint back into worry.
Faced with Xia Xue’s question, Su Bai smiled and replied:
“You do not need to worry about that, I will do my utmost.”
“However.”
“I want to ask, regarding the matter of the other party’s family demanding one million in compensation before they would sign a letter of understanding, was there any detailed process concerning that?”
Xia Xue: ???
Detailed process.
At this time, Wang Li assisted from the side: “Aunt, think carefully, none of the questions Lawyer Su asks are asked without reason.”
“It might be very important for my uncle’s lawsuit.”
“Aunt, think carefully.”
After thinking for several seconds, Xia Xue then spoke again:
“I remember this detailed process very clearly.”
“At that time it was.”
Half an hour later, Su Bai stood up.
Everything he wanted to understand had already been asked clearly.
This case.
Indeed had certain problems.
However, it would be necessary to wait until after reviewing the case file and questioning the party before making a final determination.
After exchanging a few additional polite remarks, Su Bai temporarily left the party’s home together with Li Xuezhen.
Wang Li followed behind the two of them at a quick pace.
“Lawyer Su, how is it? Is this case very simple?”
Su Bai smiled: “Whether it is simple or not, let us first look at the case file.”
A sentence of seven years.
This made Su Bai feel that it was somewhat unreasonable.
