Legal consultation is a legal service, which is generally charged. Now online legal consultation is free, but the questions usually asked are relatively simple. Do you want in-depth consultation or charge? There are several reasons for charging for legal advice:
1. Legal consultation is one of the businesses of lawyers. Lawyers' consulting and lawyers' representing cases are essentially the same as lawyers' using their professional knowledge and practice experience to solve problems for clients.
2. In addition to the previous investment and experience accumulation, legal consultation activities also involve a lot of mental work, which takes up a lot of time and is not easy. If it is a free consultation, you may just deal with it casually and won't really take it to heart.
3. If there is no charge for legal consultation, the consultation will be rampant, and the parties will often consult their lawyers because of trivial matters in the neighborhood and conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. Some parties will frequently change lawyers because they are not satisfied with the consultation, resulting in a lot of waste of lawyer time.
To sum up, legal advice is generally charged, and the charging standards of different regions and lawyers may be different. If there is a need for legal advice, it is recommended to ask clearly first.
Second, what will happen if online legal consultation is not paid?
Many online legal consultations are free, but most of the legal questions answered free of charge are relatively simple, and many lawyers also answer them at will. If in-depth consultation is needed, paid consultation service is also provided. What if online consultation is free?
First of all, we must understand that legal consultation on the Internet is also receiving corresponding services, and the platform will definitely have a complete closed-loop charging setting. Although there is no payment for the time being, it does not mean that there is no relevant mechanism on the platform. If everyone wanted to just consult without paying, then this platform would have closed down long ago.
Secondly, the Internet society is an information society, and every behavior of us will be recorded by the Internet. The internet has a memory, not to mention that many of them are real-name registration systems now. Professional lawyers are certainly easier to safeguard their rights and interests than ordinary people. The reason why they didn't choose to resort to the law, just because the cost is too high, doesn't mean that the other party doesn't have this right.
Therefore, when you are conducting online legal consultation, if you choose paid consultation, you must pay attention to paying, and don't take any chances.
