What are the procedures for lawyers to meet prisoners?

The specific materials required for lawyers to meet prisoners are as follows:

1, power of attorney;

2. Official letter from the law firm;

3. Special letter of introduction for lawyers to meet with criminal suspects and defendants;

4. A copy of the client's ID card;

5. Household registration book or marriage certificate or proof of kinship;

6. Lawyer's practice certificate.

When a lawyer meets a prisoner in custody, he shall not commit the following acts:

1, passing prohibited items;

2. Passing letters and money to criminals without permission;

3. Providing communication tools for prisoners;

4. Recording, videotaping and photographing the meeting without the consent of the prison and prisoners;

5, the implementation of matters unrelated to the entrusted duties;

To sum up, a lawyer visiting a prisoner in a detention center needs to provide a power of attorney, an official letter issued by a law firm, the client's identification materials, and a lawyer's qualification certificate. Visiting right is a kind of pure power, which has one-dimensional characteristics and is limited to some extent.
