My friend was arrested for theft for more than three months and has not been sentenced. I want to hire a lawyer. How much will it cost?

Lawyers accept the entrustment of criminal cases and act as defenders of criminal suspects, and charge by stages, each stage is about 3,000 yuan, that is, in the investigation stage of public prosecution organs, the examination and prosecution stage of procuratorates, and the trial and judgment stage of courts, they sign entrustment agreements and charge fees respectively. The negotiation fee can be reduced appropriately.
