2. Reputation and word of mouth: The reputation and word of mouth of lawyers are also factors that need to be considered when choosing lawyers. You can check lawyers' comments and opinions online, or ask friends, colleagues and other professionals what they think of lawyers. A lawyer with a good reputation and reputation will do his best to fight for your rights and interests.
3. Communication skills: Criminal cases involve communication with public, procuratorial and legal units, and lawyers need to have strong communication skills. Understand the time, methods and skills of communication between lawyers and judicial organs to ensure the smooth handling of cases.
4. Serious and responsible: Handling criminal cases is more risky than other types of cases, so it is particularly important to choose a serious and responsible lawyer.

The role of lawyers:
1. Safeguarding legal rights and interests: The main duty of lawyers is to provide legal services to clients and help them safeguard their legal rights and interests. This includes, but is not limited to, representing clients in litigation, drafting and reviewing contracts and providing legal advice. According to the actual situation of clients, lawyers will use their professional knowledge and experience to provide the most effective legal solutions for clients.
2. Maintain the correct implementation of the law: In the process of law implementation, lawyers play a greater role than judges. The judge is the middle public, and the lawyer is the active offensive and defensive party.

3. Maintaining social fairness and justice: As legal professionals, the work of lawyers helps to maintain social fairness and justice. They help customers solve disputes by providing services to them, thus achieving social harmony and stability.
4. Providing professional legal advice: lawyers are proficient in laws and regulations, including substantive law and procedural law, have the ability to investigate cases, can properly link specific cases in front of them with legal norms, and put forward opinions with certain objectivity and persuasiveness through legal reasoning.
