Significance of investigation and evidence collection
Protecting lawyers' right to investigate and collect evidence is the need of building a country ruled by law. A country without a lawyer system and lawyers is not a country ruled by law. It is of great significance to improve the right of defense lawyers to investigate and collect evidence. Its perfection is not only conducive to safeguarding the substantive rights of defense lawyers and safeguarding the legitimate rights and interests of the parties, but also conducive to promoting the balance between prosecution and defense and realizing judicial justice and fairness.
