Legal analysis: lawyers can obtain the personal household registration information of the other party with the notice of acceptance of the case. Lawyers have the right to investigate and collect evidence by themselves, and only need "two certificates". When meeting a criminal suspect or defendant, you must have "three certificates" (lawyer's practice certificate, certificate of law firm, power of attorney or legal aid letter). However, although there are clear provisions in the law, it is generally difficult for lawyers to obtain evidence on their own, and defendants are often unwilling to cooperate. If criminal cases are involved, lawyers may have to bear their own personal risks.
Legal basis: Article 48 of the Law of People's Republic of China (PRC) on Promoting Rural Revitalization, local people's governments at all levels should strengthen the construction of grassroots law enforcement teams, encourage township people's governments to set up legal advisers and public lawyers as needed, encourage qualified places to set up public legal service studios in villagers' committees, carry out in-depth publicity and education on the rule of law and people's mediation, improve the mediation and resolution mechanism of rural contradictions and disputes, and promote the construction of rural areas ruled by law.
