Criminal lawyers' meeting

Article 33 of China's Lawyers Law stipulates: "From the day when the criminal suspect is interrogated for the first time by the investigation organ or compulsory measures are taken, the entrusted lawyer has the right to meet the criminal suspect and defendant with the lawyer's practice certificate, law firm certificate, power of attorney or legal aid letter to learn about the relevant situation. Lawyers meet with criminal suspects and defendants without being monitored. " Therefore, it is very important to entrust professional criminal defense lawyers to meet effectively and provide them with procedural legal help and substantive legal advice for safeguarding the legitimate rights and interests of criminal suspects and defendants.

Netizen asked: What is the role of the Law Society?

Lawyer Su Yifei: The role of the lawyers' meeting is mainly reflected in the following aspects:

First, through the meeting, our lawyers can further understand the charges and related facts of criminal suspects and defendants, so as to collect evidence of innocence and light crimes;

Second, our lawyers will listen to the opinions and excuses of criminal suspects and defendants on the charges, and look for any clues that may be ignored through face-to-face communication with criminal suspects and defendants. The so-called "details determine success or failure", we will not miss any possible opportunity;

Third, provide legal advice to criminal suspects and defendants, effectively protect the legitimate rights and interests of defendants after their personal freedom is restricted, and appease and stabilize the defendants' panic.

Four, in the investigation stage, the family members of the criminal suspect are not allowed to meet with him; By meeting, we can bring the family members' worries, appease the defendant, and also inform the defendant of the recent situation, thus playing the role of a bridge between the family members and the defendant.

Only by finding professional and experienced criminal defense lawyers to meet criminal suspects and defendants can we really provide them with effective legal help and defend them on this basis. "Don't abandon, don't give up!"
