What kind of lawyer is a good lawyer?

Lawyer's work is a comprehensive legal service, and the evaluation of lawyer's work should also be considered comprehensively in many aspects. These aspects include:

1. What is the lawyer's working attitude? Attitude is everything. For the work of lawyers, the attitude of lawyers often determines the time, energy and manpower that lawyers put into work. The time and energy invested by lawyers in their work often determines their familiarity with this work and the depth of their research. Lawyers are serious, responsible and objective, and such lawyers are of course good lawyers. Lawyers with opposite working attitudes will never be good lawyers, although they may occasionally win several lawsuits.

2. Can you abide by the lawyer's professional ethics? Lawyers should be honest and trustworthy, diligent and conscientious, and faithfully safeguard the legitimate interests of clients; Dedication and diligence, and strive to study business; Cherish and safeguard the professional reputation of lawyers, set an example to abide by social morality, and pay attention to cultivating character and professional ethics; Strictly abide by state secrets and keep the business secrets and privacy of clients; Respect for peers, mutual assistance, fair competition and so on. Whether a lawyer can abide by professional ethics not only reflects the lawyer's personality quality, but also reflects whether a lawyer is qualified and competent.

3, whether to abide by the lawyer's practice discipline. Lawyer's practice discipline includes not only the discipline of lawyers in practice institutions, that is, whether lawyers can abide by the rules and regulations of law firms, but also the discipline of lawyers in litigation and arbitration, including the discipline of lawyers and the parties and the other party, that is, lawyers must deal with the parties and the other party in accordance with the prescribed requirements, and finally the discipline between lawyers and their peers, that is, lawyers and lawyers must abide by the industry competition norms, compete fairly, consciously maintain the practice order, and safeguard the honor and society of the lawyer industry. Whether a lawyer can abide by the lawyer's practice discipline reflects whether the lawyer's work and behavior are standardized and meet the requirements of the lawyer's practice discipline. If some lawyers can't abide by the lawyer's practice discipline, then such lawyers are not only unqualified lawyers, but also should be punished and punished by the management organization.

4, whether to provide timely and accurate advice and answers for the parties. Lawyers, as professional legal workers, should provide necessary legal advice and answers to clients in a timely and accurate manner after accepting entrustment. This not only reflects the lawyer's working attitude, but also reflects the lawyer's professional level and work experience.

5. Whether the lawyer's foresight is accurate. Timely and accurate prediction of possible legal risks and legal consequences is one of the main contents of lawyers' legal services. The lawyer's foresight will not only help the parties to prevent possible legal risks and legal consequences as soon as possible, but also make them understand the priorities of things, reduce unnecessary psychological pressure, or make necessary psychological preparations in advance. The accuracy of lawyer's foresight not only reflects the lawyer's legal analysis and judgment ability, but also reflects the lawyer's practice experience.

6. Whether the lawyer's endorsement is clear and convincing. As the saying goes, three words are clever and better. It is generally believed that an excellent lawyer must have good oral expression skills, which also shows the importance of lawyers' oral expression skills to lawyers. A large part of a lawyer's work is accomplished through oral expression. If a lawyer lacks good oral expression skills and belongs to "jiaozi is cooked in a teapot-it can't be poured out in his stomach", then the lawyer's working ability will be greatly reduced.

7. Whether the legal documents drafted by lawyers are qualified and standardized. Normative legal documents not only actively cooperate with the relevant work of judicial organs, but also clearly express the true meaning of the parties; It is not only conducive to the smooth handling of cases by judicial organs, but also conducive to safeguarding the legitimate rights and interests of the parties. Drafting qualified and standardized legal documents is the most basic requirement of lawyers' work. The legal documents drafted by lawyers are the embodiment of the theoretical basis of lawyers' jurisprudence and can directly reflect the professional level of lawyers. If a lawyer can't write a decent legal document by "talking but not practicing", then such a lawyer will definitely be "beautiful and useless", and will not be respected by the staff of the judicial organs, and it will be difficult to do a good job as a lawyer.

8. Are lawyers diligent enough? When a lawyer is entrusted to handle a case, he has to go back and forth between the law firm and the judicial organ, investigate and collect evidence, check files, inquire about laws and regulations, and often communicate with the parties. Without a pair of good legs and feet, it is impossible. A qualified lawyer can not only run around tirelessly by himself, but also properly arrange paralegals or other personnel to properly complete various tasks. Unqualified lawyers are either bossing their clients around, or simply pushing, dragging on, or even lazy to run errands. Whether a lawyer is diligent enough not only reflects his working attitude, but also reflects his character and quality.

9. The lawyer can put forward reasonable suggestions and opinions to the parties in time, give the parties appropriate tips when necessary, check for the parties, and assist the parties in making decisions. As professional legal workers, lawyers are undoubtedly more familiar with all aspects of legal affairs and have more experience in dealing with various problems. Therefore, when the parties cannot accurately judge the situation or make up their minds, lawyers should assist the parties in making decisions and give them reasonable and feasible opinions and suggestions. For example, whether to take litigation measures, whether to mediate, whether to stick to the lawsuit to the end, etc. , all need the participation of lawyers, put forward appropriate suggestions, the parties can make the right choice.

10, whether the lawyer's work can give the client the necessary comfort. For example, in criminal cases, in most cases, it is impossible to acquit the suspect or defendant. Even in civil cases, it is impossible for all parties to achieve the purpose of litigation and win the case. When the defendant is sentenced and the client loses the case, if the lawyer can make the client realize the rationality and legality of the defendant's conviction and sentencing, or let the client realize the reasons for losing the case, and finally let the client correctly understand and treat it, and finally accept it psychologically, then such a lawyer is undoubtedly a very good lawyer. Otherwise, if irresponsible language and reasons are used, the parties will not only be unacceptable, but also intensify contradictions, so that the parties will go to the road of confrontation with another party or state organs, then the parties may be led astray. Such lawyers are undoubtedly low-level lawyers.

1 1. Is there any mistake in the lawyer's work? Under normal circumstances, rights should win the lawsuit, but rights may not win the lawsuit. One of the reasons is that if you make mistakes in your work at the right time, you may lose the legal basis or protection, so you may not win the lawsuit at the right time. Entrusted by the people, lawyers must be loyal to people's affairs and tolerate no mistakes in their work. This requires lawyers to work in strict accordance with the norms of lawyer work. If a lawyer violates the work norms, or neglects his duty or makes mistakes in his work, then such a lawyer will certainly not be accepted by the parties, let alone recognized and appreciated by people at that time.

12, whether the lawyer's work results satisfy the client. It is natural for the parties to entrust lawyers to pursue their own satisfactory results. The goals pursued by lawyers should not go against the wishes of clients, but should all work towards the goals pursued by clients under the legal premise. So the result is the most important for the parties. Whether the result is good or not, regardless of the lawyer's own level and personality, is not very important to the parties. If the result is not satisfactory or acceptable to the parties concerned, then no matter how many reasons there are, the reality of pursuing failure cannot be avoided. This result is not only painful for the client, but also very painful for the lawyer. If this result is not caused by the lawyer's own work, it does not mean that the lawyer is incompetent or has a low professional level, which should not affect the evaluation of the lawyer. If this result is caused by the lawyer's own work, then the natural lawyer is responsible, and such a lawyer is the tragedy of the client.

13, whether it helps to improve the legal awareness of the parties. The process of lawyers providing legal services to clients is essentially a process of popularizing law, and it is also a process of clients learning and improving their legal awareness. Excellent lawyers, through their own services, will make their clients have a correct understanding of national laws and law enforcement and improve their ability to guard against legal risks. However, some low-level lawyers indoctrinate their clients with the idea that "litigation is relationship", connive and instigate their clients to pay bribes and give gifts to judicial personnel, and mislead their clients to form a wrong legal consciousness, which may eventually cause endless harm. This difference not only reflects the professional level of a lawyer, but also reflects the difference of a lawyer's sense of social responsibility.

To sum up, the complexity and diversity of lawyer's work determine the complexity and diversity of objective evaluation of lawyer's work.

Winning or losing a lawsuit is sometimes related to the lawyer's work level, but it is often not the only criterion to judge the lawyer's work level. For many parties, even if they lose the lawsuit, if the lawyer's fruitful work solves the legal problems of the parties, relieves the psychological pressure of the parties, relieves the physical and mental fatigue of the parties, eliminates the foot dispute between the parties and improves the legal awareness of the parties, then the parties are not without gains, and the value of the lawyer is still undeniable.

As a party, knowing a lawyer is often more complicated and difficult than going to court. If you are lucky enough to meet a very good lawyer, you should understand and be kind to your lawyer.
