Many lawyers really rack their brains and break their legs in order to collect evidence that is beneficial to their side. Bank statements are often extremely important evidence in many cases.

As for the collection of evidence, Article 64 of my country's Civil Procedure Law stipulates that if the parties and their agents are unable to collect evidence on their own due to objective reasons, or the People's Court deems it necessary to hear the case, the People's Court shall Survey collection. In addition, Article 67 of the Civil Procedure Law also stipulates that the People's Court has the right to investigate and collect evidence from relevant units and individuals, and relevant units and individuals may not refuse. In addition, Article 35 of my country's "Lawyers Law" also clearly stipulates that "lawyers who conduct self-investigation and evidence collection may investigate situations related to the undertaking of legal affairs to relevant units or individuals on the basis of their lawyer's practicing certificate and law firm certificate." However, due to the The law does not expressly stipulate that the person under investigation (unit) has the obligation to provide assistance. When lawyers need to go to some administrative agencies, banks, or enterprises to collect evidence during the investigation, some departments often refuse to provide it on the grounds that the information obtained is confidential. Since the lawyer holds an investigation order to collect evidence on behalf of the court, most departments can actively cooperate and provide relevant information.
