Pre-trial preparation is the basis of resilience in criminal defense. Only by making solid preparations can we be prepared and flexible. In order to establish their own defense views and opinions on a reliable and feasible basis, lawyers need to consider what the prosecutor may refute and what accusation materials and opinions the prosecutor may put forward when formulating defense views and opinions. Especially in innocent defense cases, lawyers must be cautious, deliberate and demonstrate repeatedly. All the well-thought-out defense viewpoints and opinions can better estimate the new situations and new problems that may appear in the trial, actively adapt to the changes in the trial with different defense schemes, and have well-thought-out plans to deal with the changes.
Trial debate is the key link of criminal defense, and it is also the main stage to test the lawyer's adaptability. At this stage, the lawyer's ability to cope with the trial can be fully demonstrated and tested. In the trial defense, we should grasp the substantive issues related to the nature of the defendant's conviction and sentencing and avoid pursuing the ultimate goal. Don't cling to the prosecutor's individual words, grammar and an irrelevant sentence in the indictment, boasting and grandstanding. This will not only fail to safeguard the defendant's legal rights, but also inevitably arouse the resentment of the public prosecutor and the collegial panel, affect the trial effect and reduce the image of lawyers in people's minds.
