For lawyers, why can't they sue first and pay later?

For civil economic cases, lawyers can take two ways: general agency or risk agency.

If it is an ordinary agent, it is usually to pay the lawyer's fee first, and then the lawyer will start working.

If both parties agree to adopt the risk agency method, the lawyer should start the work first, and then pay the lawyer's fee after winning the case or even receiving the money as agreed in the contract.
