Different lawyers of the same law firm may not act as the agent of the victim and the defender of the criminal suspect or defendant at the same time in the same criminal case, and may not establish or maintain an entrusted relationship with the parties, except that there is only one law firm in the county and the consent of the parties is obtained in advance. A lawyer cannot act as an agent for both parties in the same case, nor can he act as an agent for legal affairs with conflicts of interest with himself or his close relatives. Lawyers and law firms shall not establish or maintain an entrusted relationship with the parties. Lawyers in the same law firm cannot represent the original defendant in the same case. In civil litigation, administrative litigation and arbitration cases, different lawyers from the same law firm act as agents for both parties to the dispute at the same time, but this norm is only an industry norm formulated by the National Lawyers Association.
