1. First of all, the biggest advantage of hiring a foreign lawyer may be that because he is a foreigner, he has no collusion with the plaintiff or defendant opposite, is not easy to be bought by others, and can better uphold justice. Moreover, it is not easy to be bribed by others and then not go to court. But the biggest disadvantage of foreign lawyers is that they come from other places, so the cost of hiring lawyers will be slightly higher. After all, from the outside, food, clothing, housing and transportation will be relatively troublesome, so the cost will be higher;
2. Local lawyers know the situation better, and all local lawyers live in their own homes. There are basically no problems to be considered in food, clothing, housing and transportation, so the cost of local lawyers will be relatively low in many cases.
