Can criminal cases be represented by risk?

Legal analysis: criminal cases cannot be represented by risks, and the provisions on the collection of legal fees in criminal cases are the guiding opinions of the government price department. The popular understanding of risk agency is to win the lawsuit and pay the lawyer's agency fee, which refers to a special entrusted litigation agency between the entrusted agent and the parties. The client does not pay the agency fee in advance, and after the case is executed, the client pays the agent a certain proportion of the executed creditor's rights, which is usually suitable for handling civil cases involving property relations.

Legal basis: Article 12 of the Measures for the Administration of Lawyers' Service Fees prohibits the implementation of risk agency fees in criminal litigation cases, administrative litigation cases, state compensation cases and group litigation cases.
