My hometown received a notice of criminal detention for theft from relatives. What should we do next?

My hometown received a notice of criminal detention for theft from relatives. If I don't know the law, I'd better ask a lawyer to defend me. There are three advantages to hiring a lawyer to represent you:

1. Lawyers can help the parties to analyze the case, advantages and disadvantages, provide constructive opinions for the parties to make the most appropriate decision, and remind them to take effective legal measures in time. The rights and obligations of both parties to any dispute are opposite, some are very obvious, some are hidden, some are direct and some are indirect. For the parties who are not legal professionals, it is difficult to know the relatively secret and indirect rights and obligations. Lawyers who know the law and are familiar with the litigation procedure can help the parties analyze the case, what legal means can be taken, advantages and disadvantages. For lawyers with rich practical experience, they can even predict the outcome of the case and give instructions so that the parties can take the most appropriate countermeasures.

2. Lawyers can investigate and collect evidence in time according to the needs of the case and fix the evidence in favor of the person in charge, which is the basis for safeguarding the legitimate rights and interests of the parties. After the parties have hired a lawyer, the lawyer can investigate the relevant units and individuals, obtain relevant evidential materials that are beneficial to the parties, and have the right to consult the case file and fully understand the case; When necessary, the lawyer will apply to the court for investigation and evidence collection and take appropriate measures to fix the evidence; More importantly, lawyers will analyze and sort out all the evidence and provide evidence that is beneficial to the parties, instead of taking out all the evidence at once, regardless of whether it is beneficial to the parties. This provides a basis for the parties to handle disputes well and earnestly safeguard their legitimate rights and interests.

3. Lawyers are familiar with litigation procedures, rules of evidence and laws and regulations, write legal documents for the parties and participate in litigation in person, which can protect the legitimate rights and interests of the parties to the greatest extent. Litigation is a highly practical professional knowledge, among which the rules of litigation procedure and evidence are particularly prominent. Many parties have evidence and reasons and can find the support of laws and regulations, but they still failed to win the case. This is also why some lawsuits that should be won have not won, and those that should be lost have not lost. The reason is that many of them don't understand the rules of procedure and evidence. In addition, lawyers participate in court investigations and court debates, state their opinions and demands according to law, and get to the point in court debates, so that the legitimate rights and interests of the parties can be effectively safeguarded.
