Protecting the client's rights and interests is the direct cause of the lawyer profession, and the direct function of the lawyer system should also be to safeguard the client's rights and interests.
Lawyers use the legal knowledge and legal thinking that social subjects don't have, bring the rights or interests of social subjects and the objective facts they are based on into the legal framework, and turn them into litigation requests and legal facts, so that these entity requests and facts enter the legal space and become legal issues, and then communicate and exchange information with judges, prosecutors or opposing lawyers, and gain legal recognition and protection.
