The difference between the lawyer on duty and the defense lawyer is 1, and the positioning is different: the lawyer on duty provides legal aid to the suspects and defendants free of charge, and does not have the identity of a defender. Defense lawyers provide legal services free of charge and have the status of defenders. 2. Different rights: the lawyer on duty does not enjoy the right to read papers, while the defender enjoys the right to interview, communication, investigation and evidence collection and other litigation rights. Defence lawyers enjoy these rights.
