However, as a professional sentence reduction defense attorney, he still had a certain advantage. With so many "clients," snatching up a hundred would nearly amount to one million! The more you snatch, the more you get. The more you snatch, the more you earn. And, if he defended well, his fa in the Jin City legal community would grow even larger!
First, I need to put out an advertisent... Zhang Wei thought for a mont, then rushed through the night to create his own promotional poster. It listed many of his previous successful cases. The focus of the advertisent... was naturally his specialty in sentence reduction defense.
「...」
「The next day.」
At 9 A.M., the Jin City Court had just opened. Zhang Wei arrived at the entrance of the court with a poster and a small stool. But... he was still too late. The good spots near the court, where one could first encounter those "defendants," had already been snatched up by other attorneys. Outside the court, twenty or thirty lawyers were gathered.
"Eh? Lawyer Zhang, you’re here too?"
"You’re quite late. We’ve been here since before eight o’clock."
"You’ve heard about the matter with over three thousand defendants this ti, right? I’ve been a lawyer for so many years, but this is the first ti I’ve encountered such an overwhelming number of defendants."
"Yeah, this opportunity is rare. We must seize it. Usually, it’s hard to even find a single defendant..."
"..."
The surrounding lawyers greeted him warmly upon seeing him. In their profession, they almost all knew each other. After all, the Jin City legal circle was only so big. After so ti, everyone beca familiar faces.
"Let tell you, I heard that Lawyer Ling already pulled in over thirty defendants yesterday. I haven’t taken on that many cases in the whole of last year!" another lawyer, who had a good relationship with Zhang Wei, approached him, his face full of envy.
"There’s also Lawyer Qi. He has a one hundred percent win rate here in our Jin City legal circle. He even ca this ti, and yesterday he acquired over twenty clients..."
Listening to these rumors, Zhang Wei’s mouth twitched slightly, and he couldn’t help but glance at the stall closest to the court... at that lawyer. The arrival of Lawyer Qi was unexpected for him. In Jin City, Lawyer Qi had a huge reputation, with a win rate of one hundred percent. He never took on a case that might be lost. And this ti... it seed he too was stimulated and had joined the "race for clients." As for Lawyer Ling, he was also well-known in Jin City, with a very solid professional level.
Looks like the competition this ti is quite strong... Zhang Wei analyzed the situation, his expression sowhat solemn. Indeed. This ti, securing any of the over three thousand clients would depend on each attorney’s own skill.
"They’re coming, they’re coming!"
Suddenly, he heard a stir among the lawyers around him as three people walked up to the entrance of the court. They looked nervously at the court doors.
Upon seeing this, Lawyer Qi, who was closest to the door, imdiately stepped forward. He began to inquire, "Are you... by any chance being sued for defamation?"
Among the three, Jiang Renli looked suspiciously at the lawyerly dressed man before him and couldn’t help asking, "How do you know?"
After receiving the subpoena, he had felt apprehensive and, accompanied by his parents, had made his way to Jin City. They had booked a hotel room near the Jin City Court for a few days. Then, they had rushed to the court, eager to find out more about the case. But he hadn’t expected... outside the court, to see such a spectacle, like a street market.
Lawyer Qi just smiled slightly, maintaining a bit of mystery, and didn’t directly answer Jiang Renli’s question. Instead, he pulled out a business card, smoothly pitching himself, "My na is Qi ZhaoYu. I have a bit of a reputation here in Jin City, a professional criminal defense attorney.
"With over ten years in the legal profession, I have defended hundreds of cases, big and small.
"A win rate of 100%, never defeated!
"You look like this is your first ti as a defendant, right?
"No worries, I am confident I can help you through this difficult ti..."
With the rich experience from the past few days, Qi ZhaoYu introduced himself very smoothly and fluently. His assured manner of speaking left Jiang Renli utterly bewildered.
The more he looked, the more he felt... that this lawyer in front of him was just like those legendary traveling quacks hawking dubious redies.
"AHEM, you might still be hesitant," Qi ZhaoYu quickly added, seeing Jiang Renli’s skeptical deanor. "No worries. Go to the court first and get the litigation materials: the rights and duties notification letter, the response notice, the evidence submission notice, and all that. After you understand the case, it won’t be too late to co back and find ."
With that said, he pointedly indicated the business card in Jiang Renli’s hand.
Jiang Renli swallowed nervously and, with his parents beside him, walked into the court with apprehension.
Not long after he entered, the entrance of the court welcod wave after wave of people.
"If I’m not mistaken, are you being sued for defamation?"
"I’m from XX Law Firm, and our firm has a solid foundation in legal practice, with an industry approval rating of up to 60%..."
"Ah? You’re here to sue soone? Well, you can take my business card too. In case you get sued in the future, you’re welco to co find ."
"Setting up a stall is illegal? We’re all lawyers; how could we break the law? We’re not obstructing traffic or affecting the city’s appearance, and if the city managent officials don’t co, who’s to regulate us?"
"..."
As the number of people increased, the area outside the court gradually beca busier. Of course. They were all lawyers, and they had considered all possibilities before engaging in this activity. Even while setting up stalls, they stood rather scattered.
