1. Is it legal to charge 30,000 yuan for criminal lawyer's fees?
It is legal to charge 30 thousand for criminal lawyer's fees. Criminal cases can be charged in stages, and the more stages involved, the higher the charges. It should also be reminded that risk charging can only be carried out in civil cases, but not in criminal cases. As for the specific amount, it still depends on how well the lawyer treats himself and the fees.
Civil cases are different from criminal cases. Generally, the first trial, second trial and retrial are the time nodes in civil cases. In other words, everything is done, which is the standard for calculating expenses. Criminal cases can be charged in stages, and the more stages involved, the higher the charges. It should also be reminded that risk charging can only be carried out in civil cases, but not in criminal cases. So here, you need to be careful when you meet a "lawyer" who is sure of the ticket and talks a lot. As for the specific amount, it still depends on how well the lawyer treats himself and the fees. However, some things have relatively uniform charging prices in a region.
For example, in Guangzhou, if a lawyer is asked to go to the detention center to see the criminal suspect and is responsible for conveying information to the people inside (not involving illegal crimes), then the general charge is about 1000 to 2,000 yuan. There are some relatively simple cases, and the trial is just a process. Then the charge is about 5000 yuan to 10000 yuan. Of course, taking Guangzhou as an example, there are also a few qualified lawyers who charge different fees.
Let's take Guangdong for example. Generally speaking, if the whole criminal case is represented by a lawyer, the middle-level lawyer will charge about 30 thousand to 50 thousand. Different people have different opinions on whether this price is expensive or low, so I won't elaborate here. In practice, the situation of each case is different, and according to the current situation, the strategies adopted by lawyers will be different. But what is certain is that qualified lawyers will not harm people and will do their best. If you are a poor lawyer, something may happen. I have personally seen criminal cases with insufficient evidence. Since the defense lawyer will admit the criminal act committed by the defendant, neither the defendant nor his family will admit it. As a result, the lawyer was attacked by the defendant's family after the trial. For this question, it is still up to the readers to evaluate themselves.
2. What are the legal provisions for attorney fees?
Measures for the administration of lawyers' service fees
Article 4 The fees for lawyers' services shall be guided by the government and regulated by the market.
Article 5 A law firm shall provide the following legal services in accordance with the law, and implement government-guided prices:
(1) Acting as an agent in civil litigation cases;
(2) Acting as an agent in administrative litigation cases;
(3) Acting as an agent for state compensation cases;
(four) to provide legal advice to criminal suspects in criminal cases, to represent complaints and accusations, to apply for bail pending trial, and to act as the defendant's defender, private prosecutor or agent ad litem of the victim;
(5) Acting as an agent for appeals in various litigation cases.
In our daily life, if you ask a lawyer to defend you, it usually refers to some civil cases, but it needs to be reminded that criminal cases can also be represented by a lawyer. As for the agency fee, it needs to be determined according to the stage of agency.
