Legal fees for criminal cases

Legal analysis: Criminal cases are different from civil cases. There is no need to pay legal fees for criminal cases, but the entrusted lawyer needs corresponding service fees. If you have difficulties, you can also apply for legal aid.

Legal basis: Article 167 of the Criminal Procedure Law of People's Republic of China (PRC), which states that any case requiring public prosecution shall be examined and decided by the people's procuratorate.
