Will a lawyer's immediate family member be revoked his lawyer's qualification certificate if he commits a crime (the lawyer himself is not involved in the crime)?

According to the current laws of our country, if a lawyer's immediate family members commit a crime, as long as they are not involved in the crime, their practice qualification certificate will not be revoked. The following will cite relevant laws and regulations to demonstrate and list facts to illustrate.

First of all, let's look at the relevant provisions of the People's Republic of China (PRC) Lawyers Law. According to the provisions of Article 49 of the Lawyers Law, if a lawyer commits one of the following acts, the judicial administrative department of the people's government at the municipal level or municipality directly under the Central Government shall give him a punishment of stopping practicing for more than six months and less than one year, and may also impose a fine of less than 50,000 yuan; Illegal income, confiscate the illegal income; If the circumstances are serious, the judicial administrative department of the people's government of a province, autonomous region or municipality directly under the Central Government shall revoke his lawyer's practice certificate; If a crime is constituted, criminal responsibility shall be investigated according to law. This clause clearly stipulates the circumstances in which the lawyer's practice certificate will be revoked, but it does not involve the crime committed by the lawyer's immediate family.

Secondly, the Code of Professional Ethics for Lawyers also regulates the behavior of lawyers. The Code requires lawyers to abide by professional ethics, safeguard legal dignity and justice, and provide high-quality and efficient legal services for clients. Although crimes committed by lawyers' immediate family members may have a certain impact on lawyers' reputation, lawyers themselves will not be disqualified as long as they abide by professional ethics and laws.

In real life, we can find some examples to prove this point. For example, a lawyer's immediate family member commits a crime, but the lawyer himself did not participate in the crime, but actively cooperated with the judicial organs to investigate and provide legal aid to his relatives according to law. In this case, the lawyer himself was not revoked his qualification certificate, but continued to perform his duties as a lawyer and provide legal services to the parties.

Another example is that the lawyer's spouse is suspected of committing a crime, but the lawyer himself resolutely opposes the spouse's behavior and provides legal aid to the spouse in the judicial process. In this case, the lawyer himself was not revoked his qualification certificate, but won the legitimate rights and interests for the client by virtue of his professional quality.

To sum up, if a lawyer's immediate family members commit a crime, the lawyer himself will not be revoked, as long as the lawyer himself is not involved in the crime. This conclusion is not only based on laws and regulations, but also supported by actual cases. Of course, in the face of such situations, lawyers should strictly abide by laws and regulations, abide by professional ethics, and provide high-quality and efficient legal services for clients.
