1. Provide legal advice to criminal suspects.
Most criminal suspects don't know the law, or they don't know much about the law. Even if there is, because of its particularity, it is difficult for them to be truly calm. It's hard to keep a clear head. As a lawyer who is completely independent, active, proficient in law and without any pressure, he can be provided with legal advice, so that he can have a comprehensive and correct understanding of his behavior, and the lawyer can tell him the seriousness and possible results of his behavior. He can ask the lawyer relevant legal questions, and the lawyer will explain them seriously and comprehensively. Can let him combine his own behavior and laws to make a relatively positive understanding of himself. To put it bluntly: make him feel confident.
Step 2 know the case
After the suspects were arrested, most of them immediately lost contact with the outside world. Most family members don't know what he did. At this time, all kinds of legends will be overwhelming. People who say cynicism, people who express sympathy, people who come to comfort, and many "capable people" will take the initiative to convey various messages of hope to their families. Even if you have a red mouth and white teeth, you will make a promise that you can "catch" people with money. As a result, the family members were at a loss, running around, burning incense and worshipping Buddha, throwing money and looking for ways to find ways. The result is still a mess, or cheated. These problems will be solved with the timely participation of lawyers. The family just needs to sit at home and wait for the good news. Lawyers will fully understand the real situation of the case when meeting with criminal suspects, and ask them to sign in person. The information thus obtained is absolutely reliable. After seeing the autographs of your loved ones, will you still be confused by the endless and mysterious rumors? When you really understand the case, you will know what to do, instead of letting those "capable people" lead you by the nose. You won't blindly give away your hard-earned money everywhere.
3. Apply for bail pending trial
Bail pending trial is an effective way for criminal suspects to restore personal freedom as soon as possible. After the criminal suspect's personal freedom is restricted, both he and his family expect him to restore his freedom as soon as possible and reunite with his family. However, before he is officially acquitted or suspended by the court according to law, he may face imprisonment for several months, and bail pending trial is the only way to restore his freedom. Of course, not all suspects can be released on bail pending trial, but lawyers can carefully analyze specific cases according to laws and facts, and apply in time at an appropriate time, so that the suspects can restore their personal freedom as soon as possible.
4. Complaints and accusations on behalf of others
The reconnaissance stage is the beginning of a criminal case, and it is a very important basis for determining whether a criminal suspect has committed a crime, whether it is light or heavy. At present, in the investigation stage, there are still serious violations in the trial process. The phenomenon of extorting confessions by torture is still very frequent, of course, some are minor but some are serious. Although this kind of behavior is absolutely prohibited by law, the responsible person should also be punished according to law, but because this phenomenon is not easy to be found, criminal suspects often have to bear it silently. Many suspects suddenly retracted their confessions during the trial. When asked about the reason, he said that he was forced at the investigation stage, but he could not produce any evidence to prove it. As a result, instead of recanting his confession, he was regarded as refusing to plead guilty, stubborn and unrepentant. In order to be punished more severely. With the participation of lawyers, this phenomenon can be completely avoided. When a lawyer meets a criminal suspect, the criminal suspect can make a statement to the lawyer in time, and the lawyer can sue the relevant responsible person according to the statement of the criminal suspect, so as to effectively supervise the interrogation behavior of the case-handling personnel and prevent them from illegally interrogating the criminal suspect. Once the accusation is established, the original statement may be completely invalid due to illegal evidence collection. In this way, the suspect can lay a good foundation for the trial he will face in the future from the beginning. Once the reconnaissance stage is over, the reconnaissance organ will treat the suspects differently according to the specific circumstances of the case. For the criminal suspects that the reconnaissance organ thinks need to be investigated for criminal responsibility, the reconnaissance organ will report to the procuratorial organ for public prosecution according to law. This leads to the second stage of criminal cases: the stage of examination and prosecution.
At this stage, the procuratorial organ will conduct a serious and comprehensive review of the cases reported by the reconnaissance organ. If the facts of the crime are clear and the evidence is conclusive, the procuratorial organ will bring a public prosecution to the people's court according to law. If the facts are unclear and the evidence is conclusive, it shall be returned to the reconnaissance organ for supplementary reconnaissance according to law. If criminal responsibility is not required, it shall not be investigated according to law.
At this stage, lawyers mainly review various legal procedures, such as residence permits and arrest warrants. At the same time, review whether these acts are legal. According to the lawyer's understanding of the case, timely put forward suggestions to the investigation organ, such as whether the charges reported by the investigation organ are correct enough, whether there is illegal evidence collection in the process of interrogating the criminal suspect, and major plots and evidence that the investigation organ is beneficial to the criminal suspect but has not noticed or ignored. Through contact, consultation and discussion with the procuratorial organ, the lawyer persuaded the procuratorial organ to have a clearer impression of the case. For various reasons, the cases handled by the reconnaissance organs are not necessarily legal and conclusive. For various reasons, the procuratorial organ may not make an accurate characterization of the case. At this time, with the participation of lawyers, lawyers will discuss with the procuratorial organs from the opposite angle, at least not exactly the same angle, which will be conducive to the procuratorial organs' comprehensive, comprehensive and fair review of cases, thus avoiding or reducing the preconceptions of the reconnaissance organs on the reported cases. We can't just focus on the evidence and circumstances that are not conducive to the criminal suspect. At the same time, it will also focus on the evidence and plot that are beneficial to the suspect. If there are serious problems in the case, the lawyer can make comprehensive suggestions to the procuratorial organ and suggest returning it to the reconnaissance organ for supplementary reconnaissance. This can avoid misjudged cases as much as possible. Once a misjudged case is formed, the first, largest and most direct victim is the criminal suspect. Once a misjudged case is formed, it will take several times, dozens of times or even more time, energy and financial resources to correct it. The court will make a final judgment on the case according to the prosecution request of the procuratorate. So it can be seen that the stage of examination and prosecution is very important. This cannot be ignored. There are many things that lawyers can do at this stage, and they are fully prepared for the final trial stage. This stage is a comprehensive embodiment of lawyer's work. It is the last and most critical stage for lawyers to play their defense role. At this stage, the lawyer will fully confront the public prosecution agency and launch a full-scale war of words with the public prosecution agency according to all the evidence he has previously mastered in favor of the defendant and the skillful plot-based legal knowledge, and a real court battle will be fully launched. At this time, the public prosecutor prosecuted the defendant on behalf of the state and will request the court to investigate the criminal responsibility of the defendant according to the facts, evidence and law. Lawyers will argue that the defendant is innocent and the lightest according to the facts and evidence law, and ask the court to fully consider their opinions. Lawyers will rely on their skilled legal knowledge, eloquence and quick thinking to capture every plot that is beneficial to the defendant. And submit it to the court in time. At this time, the defendant will play a very lonely and passive role in court without a lawyer's defense. In practice, although the court decides in the middle, it often unconsciously stands on the side of the prosecutor, at least in this way. The defendant is in the position of trial at this time. Although the court allows defendants to state freely, most defendants cannot and dare not let go to defend themselves. I am afraid that I will not be able to defend myself in the end, and I will have a bad attitude and be unwilling to accept legal sanctions. Lawyers, on the other hand, have no such worries. He will express his opinion freely in court. If the defendant can't or dare not, the lawyer can defend him. So as to avoid the defendant's fear of bad ending and the adverse effects caused by defending himself. In short, the work and role of lawyers reached its peak at this time. As the defender of the defendant, the lawyer will always stand firmly on the defendant's side. Faithfully perform the duties of a lawyer. Maximize the protection of the legitimate rights and interests of the defendant.
