Chapter 408 Don't Thank My Eight Generation Ancestors
"This tea is not provided by the law firm. It is the purple bamboo shoot tea I bought from Yunwu Tea House." Fang Yi said with a smile.

"Purple bamboo shoot tea? It's the first time I drink it. If I have time, I'll go to Yunwu Tea House to buy some." Ouyang Jie said.

"Is there something wrong here this time?" Fang Yi asked with a smile while adding water to make tea.

"Well, didn't you go to Yu Province not long ago to handle a case where a lawyer was arrested?" Ouyang Jie asked mysteriously.

"Yes! What's the matter?" Fang Yi asked.

"Two days ago I talked about a case where a legal worker was arrested, and I reported your name. Guess what, the other party really knew you, and told me that he had seen reports about you on the Internet, Yu The provincial case was told to me by the other party, and now you are a well-known criminal lawyer in this city, blowing the trumpet through the crack of the door, and your name (singing) is famous!" Ouyang Jie said seriously.

"Is it so evil? I have handled a few cases, and I have a little reputation, so I can't be as evil as you said." Fang Yi said modestly, but he was extremely beautiful in his heart.

"Really, I will never lie to you. As soon as the other party heard that I knew you, he wanted me to introduce you to him and ask him about the case. Do you think?" Ouyang Jie said and looked at Fang Yi.

"Okay! You can set the time with the other party. I don't have any plans during this time. Just tell me one day in advance. Do you know the general situation of the case?" Fang Yi thought: "It's a coincidence that someone came to deliver the pillow just after dozing off." !
"It is said that a legal worker colluded with another person to carry out a false lawsuit, and was charged by the procuratorate with the crime of helping to forge evidence and obstructing testimony. I don't know much about the specific content." Ouyang Jie took out a very-looking A high-end notebook, I flipped through it, looked at it, and said.

Ouyang Jie is a non-legal person. What he cares about is always the amount of legal fees he can charge, so he didn't ask about the case in detail. Anyway, the lawyer will ask about the case after meeting with the client. He feels that it doesn't matter whether he asks or not, as long as he knows the general situation. up.

"Hey! I'm getting more and more professional. Once I get a small notebook, my image immediately improves a lot, and with a pair of plain glasses, I'm a proper cultural person." Seeing him take out his notebook, Fang Yi said with a smile.

"Really?! Yes, I bought a pair of plain mirrors... just to decorate the appearance. It's really not good if there are five people and six people who are not orderly when talking to customers." Ouyang Jie took it out of his bag He took out a pair of brand-name glasses and gestured.

"Well, hold on! You can ask the client over later, I'll talk first." Fang Yi smiled.

Looking at the young and handsome Ouyang Jie, Fang Yi thought to himself: It seems that this kid has been led on the road by himself!In case one day I can't do it anymore, this guy must not thank my eight generations of ancestors.

The "legal worker" mentioned by Ouyang Jie is not a lawyer, and this kind of profession is probably only found in China.

According to Article No.60 of the "Civil Procedure Law", lawyers and grassroots legal service workers are full-time legal service personnel who can be entrusted as litigation representatives.But there is a big difference between the two.

[-]. Different legal basis
Article [-] of the "Lawyers Law" stipulates that "lawyers" as mentioned in this Law refer to practitioners who have obtained a lawyer's professional certificate in accordance with the law and provide legal services to the society.

Article [-] of the "Administrative Measures for Grassroots Legal Service Workers" stipulates: Grassroots legal workers are those who practice in grassroots legal service offices and provide legal services to the society.

It can be seen from this that the legal basis for the existence of the two is different. The legal basis for the existence of lawyers is the "Lawyers Law", while the basis for the existence of legal workers is the "Administrative Measures for Grassroots Legal Service Workers". This method is not a law, but a departmental regulation.

[-]. Different access systems

To become a lawyer, one must first take the National Lawyers Qualification Examination and obtain a lawyer's professional qualification.As for grass-roots legal workers, there are no such requirements. As long as you graduate from a university with a law major and pass the examination organized by the judicial administrative organs of provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities directly under the Central Government, you can be issued a certificate.

It can be seen that the level of practice and professional ability of the two is clear at a glance.

[-]. Different scope of services

Practicing lawyers who have obtained A certificate (lawyers with C certificate in the cared-for areas have geographical restrictions on practice) can practice nationwide, and there are no restrictions on non-litigation and litigation business, as long as they have the ability to practice and resources.

The services of legal practitioners have geographical restrictions. For example, the existing legal practitioners in Beijing are divided into practicing in the whole city and practicing in specific areas. Regional practice is to practice within a specific administrative area (such as in the FT area, or the SJS area, or the MTG area), and must not practice beyond the scope.

The most obvious difference between the business scope of legal workers and lawyers is that lawyers can handle criminal cases, while legal workers are not allowed to handle criminal cases.

In theory, legal workers can do anything except criminal cases, but with the increasing number of lawyers in recent years, the scope of legal workers’ business has been continuously squeezed, and many first-tier cities have stopped issuing the "Grassroots Legal Services Many parties are more inclined to seek lawyers for legal consultation, and many people have even never heard of the profession of legal workers.

In the afternoon of the next day, Ouyang Jie brought an old man in his 60s with gray hair. Fang Yi smelled a familiar smell from the old man, which is the smell only legal professionals have.

Fang Yi couldn't help but look at the old man a few more times, and saw that the old man was fat, his waist was probably not much shorter than the length of his trousers, he had a big belly, a red nose, not much hair on the top of his head, and his scalp was faintly visible.

"Lawyer Fang, this is Mr. Zhao Fengxiang whom I mentioned to you earlier. Mr. Zhao, this is Mr. Fang Yi. The case of the arrested lawyer from Henan Province that you saw online was the second instance represented by Mr. Fang. The court of second instance Change the sentence of that lawyer not guilty." Ouyang Jie introduced.

"Lawyer Fang, I've heard of you for a long time. We are actually colleagues." Zhao Fengxiang said.

"Oh? You're also a lawyer?" Fang Yi thought to himself: No, this old man doesn't look like a lawyer, but most likely he is from the legal circle.

"I'm not a lawyer, I'm a legal worker. Before I retired, I had been working in Changying Legal Services. Of course, I haven't left the legal circle after retirement. I occasionally take on some cases." Zhao Fengxiang said.

Don't look at his cheerful face, but he is actually very unconvinced in his heart: everyone is in the law, although your lawyers look down on us legal workers, but grandpa, I have rich practical experience, and my theory is not as good as you who came out of colleges. Yes, but we are no worse than you in terms of judicial practice.

Fang Yi didn't think too much, and asked: "Old Zhao, Ouyang said you have a case to discuss, can you tell me the details?"
