Chapter 926: Chapter 299: This is the first time in my life that I’ve encountered a request like this!
Twenty minutes later, Old Han looked at the young lawyer in front of him, his face as grim as a black donkey’s hoof.
“Are you Bai Boning?”
The young lawyer opposite him nodded hastily. At the moment he knew the director called him, he already wanted to spit fire. You, Tang Fangjing, are supposedly a renowned lawyer within the country, yet still playing this snitching game, huh!
It’s embarrassing to even mention it!
“Do you know why I called you? Is that how you handle criminal cases?” Old Han stared at Bai Boning before him and said again.
Old Han’s tone was so bad that it made Bai Boning involuntarily shudder.
But he still said, “Director, that… I had five other cases at the time, and it was a bit…”
“Is that an excuse? I’m asking you, is that an excuse? From the client’s perspective, they only know you took their case, and what’s the outcome? How did you handle it?”
“Dafeng Law Firm is now sustaining itself with criminal cases, the only way we can compete with Tengda. Is that how you manage cases? Have I given you too good conditions?” Old Han stood up and roared.
Bai Boning was at a loss for words, his mouth twitching. If it were any other smaller law firm and the director dared to lash out like this, any lawyer with a bit of capability would have just walked out.
In this profession, as long as you can bring in cases and have a source of cases in hand, you’re welcome at any law firm.
It’s really no different from sales.
But Bai Boning was different, if he left Dafeng now, it would be very difficult for him to get by in this field, since he really has no source of cases.
This was also why Old Han could scold people at will; Dafeng is currently one of the few law firms in Jingzhou capable of competing with Tengda in certain areas.
Mainly because Old Han is awesome, he knows so many people, and casually leaking a few cases is enough for the general lawyers below to live on.
“Enough, you better resolve this issue properly, or else don’t work at Dafeng anymore. My temple is too small for a big deity like you, understand?”
Bai Boning quickly nodded his head, and after leaving the office, he started to wipe his sweat. What on earth is this mess? How am I supposed to properly resolve it? I really hate it when leaders speak like this!
On the other side, at Tengda Law Firm, after Old Tang and Old Han finished their call, he started contemplating the legal consultancy firm’s issue.
He did a quick online search and discovered a whole bunch of scams, as they are companies, these people are particularly bold, even daring to advertise slogans like “guarantee a win” and “guarantee getting the money.”
Lawyers wouldn’t dare talk like that because they would be penalized by the Lawyers Association or even the Justice Bureau.
Although the Justice Bureau doesn’t stand out among the judiciary, and even often gets overlooked when people talk about the judicial system as “police, procuracy, and law,” but when it comes to dealing with someone other than themselves, handling a lawyer is a piece of cake!
Many clients don’t understand this. You lawyers don’t even dare promise me a win, but the place next door promises a win if I hire them; naturally, I would choose them.
When signing the contract, they also didn’t look carefully, the money they paid wasn’t for attorney fees but for service fees or consulting fees. After paying, when they got no further news and went to inquire, the company would say, your consulting service has ended.
Yes, the process of your conversation at the time was the consultation, they never said anything about going to court or anything, do you have any proof?
The contract only mentioned consulting services, and the fee for that was clearly stated, and you also signed it.
If you go to report this to the Public Security Authorities, they’ll consider it a civil dispute and suggest you resolve it through legal means…
You were originally going to resort to legal means, but then you get scammed in the process, and are told to resolve the issue of being scammed through legal means; just thinking about it feels helpless.
So in a way, Wang Wenyan and her family are somewhat lucky, at least the transfer of authority went to a lawyer.
Thinking about these disturbances, even Old Tang couldn’t help shaking his head; he couldn’t possibly manage too much, but he wanted to handle matters close to home.
With that thought, Old Tang stood up and instructed: “Qingqing, pack up some things for me. I need to go out for a bit. Yes, I want to check something.”
Wang Qingqing entered the office curiously and asked, “What are you checking, Tang brother? Didn’t you say we should be able to win this case?”
Old Tang waved his hand and said, “Better safe than sorry. If he cooperates well when the time comes, that’s fine. I’m not some kind of freak, but if there’s some other situation, I definitely need to have some means of resolution.”
Wang Qingqing fell silent; Tang brother’s means of resolving issues always had but one approach, and that was to get rid of the problematic person, thereby naturally resolving the issue.
Several days passed, and on a very cold morning, Old Tang with his briefcase in tow arrived at the Guangming District Court.
At the entrance of the court, Wang Wenyan was already waiting there; she was extremely resentful towards the people from that legal consulting firm and the lawyer, so she wanted to be present as soon as she knew there was a court session today.
Old Tang naturally had no objections; if the party wants to participate in the court session, then let them, since this isn’t any special case.
“Lawyer Tang, you’re here. Oh my, it’s really cold today, feels even colder than usual,” said Wang Wenyan as she approached upon seeing Old Tang.
Old Tang nodded and said, “You didn’t actually need to come, but since you’re here, just don’t say anything out of line later. Let’s go in.”
Then Wang Wenyan noticed that this Lawyer Tang, once he entered the court, seemed as if he were right at home.
Many people inside greeted him, and some even told him he could get water directly from the office if he wanted.
