Legal analysis: According to the regulations, the charging standard for lawyers in criminal cases can be charged in stages. A complete criminal case can be divided into three stages, namely, investigation stage, examination and prosecution stage and trial stage, and the trial stage includes first instance, second instance and death penalty review. The client can negotiate with the lawyer to pay the fee by stages, or pay the fee in several stages at a time. Those who go to other places to handle cases will have additional corresponding travel expenses. As far as simple criminal cases are concerned, the charging standards are generally: 3000-8000 yuan in the investigation stage and 3000- 10000 yuan in the examination and prosecution stage; 3,000-20,000 yuan in the preliminary examination stage; Major, difficult and complicated cases shall not exceed 5 times the amount of simple cases.
Legal basis: Article 4 of the Measures for the Administration of Lawyers' Fees: The fees for lawyers' services shall be subject to government-guided prices and market-regulated prices.
