In today's "What is a good lawyer" series, what I want to tell you is that a good lawyer is like a good doctor, who speaks with conscience and does work with conscience! When we say that a person is looking for a lawyer, he must be "sick". And this "disease", if he can't cure it by himself, he will go to a lawyer if he has no choice, is this equivalent to finding a doctor? In fact, looking for a lawyer, I feel more and more that he is really like looking for a doctor! At the same time, you must be honest when looking for a lawyer. We can imagine, when we go to the hospital, can you not tell the doctor the truth? But if you don't tell the doctor the truth, you're doing the stupidest thing you can do. Because only when you tell the truth to the doctor can the doctor know what kind of disease you have, so that he can prescribe the right medicine. Otherwise, the consequences will definitely be very, very serious!

In fact, there are a lot of similarities between lawyers and doctors. I've been pondering this particularly interesting question for a while. Because doctors and lawyers need to obtain professional qualifications, they must also have a registered practice certificate. At the same time, there must be a permanent professional body. It's all superficial.
What does the doctor address? It's our body's disease. And what lawyers solve is that we personally encounter various troubles in society. Once a doctor encounters a tumor or cancer, it is really a big head! And if a lawyer encounters a difficult and complicated case, his head is also uncomfortable. Sometimes when I see some particularly difficult and complicated cases, the lawyer's head is also confused. Why? Because it's really, really hard to do. Therefore, every case that a lawyer undertakes is like a doctor going to surgery. He has to make all kinds of judgments and plans in advance based on his professional knowledge, and he also needs to think of various risks. And, tell your clients about these risks and find ways to address them. You see, when we go to the hospital, if it is an operation, the doctor must ask your family to sign the risk notice. If you don't sign it, people won't operate on you, why? This is because surgery is very risky. In fact, when a lawyer solves a major and difficult case, what is the difference between surgery and surgery? There is no difference.

If a doctor organizes a consultation for a difficult illness, the lawyer also organizes a "consultation". If your disease is complex, the doctor may have ophthalmology, dentistry, gastric medicine, orthopedics, oncology, radiotherapy, chemotherapy, etc. Form a team of medical experts to consult on your condition.
In fact, lawyers are the same, if they encounter some criminal and civil cases, including administrative cases, there are also various tests and appraisals. At this time, the lawyers will also form a team of lawyers to "consult" with your case. So at this time, are lawyers and doctors very similar? We know doctors, we have health care doctors; And lawyers, there are legal advisers. What does a health care doctor do? It is usually to check your own disease number, it is not easy to get other diseases, and find the one that can be prevented before you get a disease. And legal counsel, when serving enterprises, is actually the same, like treating a sick number! He should always pay attention to whether the company will encounter any legal risks, so as to avoid them. So it's all "health doctors"! At the same time, I would like to say and emphasize that no matter how good a doctor is, whether he or she is a famous doctor or not, they should respect their patients first. It is hard for us to imagine that if a doctor raises his eyebrows and raises his nose and eyes at his patient, making his patient feel very bad about the medical treatment, then do you think the patient's disease can be cured by him?

The same is true for lawyers, regardless of the level of legal business, whether they are lawyers or barristers. In the process of providing legal services, they should regard whether they respect the parties as their minimum professional ethics, and also reflect it in their entire service process.
It is also difficult for us to imagine that a lawyer who is arrogant to his client, picks his nose and picks his eyes, and does not respect his client, can he establish full understanding and trust for his client? Can he really think about the interests of the client? We often say that attitude determines height. In fact, attitude determines this matter more, does it have a good result? So, if when you come across a case and don't know how to find a good lawyer, you think about what I told you today, just like finding a good doctor. Because everyone does the same work, it is all the work of conscience; The words are all the same, they are all words of conscience.
