The fees for finding a lawyer in the first instance and the second instance are generally charged separately. The first trial is two separate procedures, so the lawyer's fees are charged separately. Moreover, the cost calculation method and related charging contents of each stage are different, and the amount to be charged and the payment method need to be decided after both parties reach an understanding. Both parties only need to sign an entrustment agreement to avoid unnecessary verbal disputes.
2. What are the specific standards for collecting lawyer's fees in first instance and second instance?
(1) The charging standards for criminal cases shall be determined one by one at each stage of handling cases.
1. In the investigation stage, each is 2000- 1 ten thousand yuan.
2. In the trial and prosecution stage, the charge for each piece is 2000- 10000 yuan.
3. The charge in the first trial stage is 4000-30000 yuan per piece.
4. There is no limit to the fluctuation of the above charging standards.
(2) Cases of second instance, death penalty review, retrial, appeal and criminals' self-awareness shall be charged according to the charging standard for lawyer services in the first instance.
(3) If a law firm represents multiple stages of a case, the fees shall be reduced or exempted as appropriate from the second stage.
(4) If the victim files a criminal incidental civil action case, the lawyer's service fee shall be charged according to the charging standard of civil action case.
(5) If a criminal suspect and defendant are involved in several crimes or criminal facts at the same time, they can be prosecuted separately according to the crimes or criminal facts involved.
Conducive to lawyers' defense in the second instance.
In addition to better sorting out the case for the parties, there is also experience and adaptability in handling cases that the general defender does not have.
Third, what are the precautions for hiring a defense lawyer in the second instance?
1. Lawyers are proficient in laws and regulations, including substantive law and procedural law, and have the ability to investigate cases. Moreover, lawyers have developed the habit of thinking from a legal point of view, and can properly link the specific cases in front of them with legal norms, put forward certain objective and convincing opinions through legal reasoning, and prompt them to the court in time.
2. On the basis of having knowledge of laws and regulations and legal reasoning ability, lawyers can organize arguments and evidence materials that are beneficial to clients according to specific cases, and conduct logical and complete debates, which is not necessarily directly related to lawyers' beliefs or likes and dislikes.
For cases that have been represented in the first instance, the agency fee is half of the first instance fee, and other handling fees remain unchanged. For cases where there is no agent in the first instance but only in the second instance, the agency fee is charged according to the standard of the first instance, and other handling fees remain unchanged. If the case is sent back for retrial after the second trial, the agency fee shall be charged at half of the second trial fee, and other handling fees shall remain unchanged.
