...
Saturday morning.
Lin Mansion, the kitchen room.
Zhang Wei and Zhao Xiaoxiao are eating breakfast.
Breakfast is rice porridge, with a little green onion scrambled eggs, Zhao Xiaoxiao eats it with gusto.
While eating breakfast, Zhang Wei looked at the bank card transfer records in his mobile phone, and his expression was quite calm.
"The salary in February was paid. Because of the small number of working days, the basic working hours are only two-thirds of a month. Two successful cases and one pleaded guilty case were considered lost. A total of 4,145 yuan was paid."
In Jincheng Law Firm, the basic salary of trainee lawyers is 3,000. In February, the working days are less than one month, and one third is deducted to get 2,000. The two winning cases each have a 1,000 subsidy, and the losing case is after the subsidy is deducted. I paid 145 yuan, because there is no need to pay various taxes and insurance during the internship period, Zhang Wei's salary in February is 2000+1000x2+145=4145.
"Seeing that you have been busy for a month, and you work overtime on weekends, but you only earn 4,000 yuan. Are you stupid, insisting on working for the Lin family?"
Hearing Zhang Wei's salary, Zhao Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes.
This salary is not enough to support him in a big city like Dongfangdu.
"Second girl, you don't know the profession of lawyers. Internship lawyers have no human rights, and it's normal that the salary is not high~"
Zhang Wei just waved his hand and didn't care at all.
It is no secret that a trainee lawyer is a coolie + wage earner. It is no wonder that the salary is high.
"Then you might as well go to work for blacksmith technology, go to their legal department, the salary of the internship period is 8000!"
"Fuck, blacksmith technology is so rich, the internship period of the legal department is almost catching up with the salary of a regular lawyer!"
Although he knew that Blacksmith Technology's salary was good, he didn't expect the salary to be so good. The internship period was twice as much as Jincheng's salary.
In Zhang Wei's heart, there is such a thought, can he really think about it and go to Lao Zhao?
After all, Lao Zhao is the father of the second daughter, so they are all from his own family~
No, if you go to Lao Zhao, you can only accept internal lawsuits in the company every day.
He is a criminal defense lawyer, and he fights business litigation every day, isn't he going to die of depression?
He shook his head, dismissing the thought.
"By the way, second girl, today is Saturday, and I got up so early again, did I have another appointment?"
"I want you to take care of it!"
Hearing Zhao Xiaoxiao's unhappy answer, Zhang Wei smiled.
This is what I want, I am full of energy today~
"By the way, it seems that my practice certificate has arrived today. After I get the practice certificate, I can file civil and commercial lawsuits!"
The practice certificate will be sent directly to the practice law firm, so after going to Jincheng, you can get the practice certificate.
Once he has obtained his practice certificate, although Zhang Wei is still a trainee lawyer in the law firm, he can already go to civil court.
And with a practicing license, you are a decent lawyer.
From then on, others will call him "Lawyer Zhang" in a serious manner!
"When will others call me Lawyer Zhang, that will be comfortable..."
Thinking about today's plan in his mind, Zhang Wei smiled.
"You laugh so obscenely, no wonder that female prosecutor called you a scumbag!"
Looking at Zhang Wei's smile, Zhao Xiaoxiao rolled her eyes again.
"What are you talking about, second girl, Xiao Baihe and I are innocent, and she called me a scumbag without any basis for slander!"
For Xiao Baihe's baseless accusation, Zhang Wei naturally strongly denied it.
"Hehe!" Zhao Xiaoxiao responded casually, showing the attitude of "I don't believe it at all".
But Zhang Wei didn't bother to explain to his second daughter. After eating the porridge and washing the dishes, he set off for work.
This Saturday, I have to work overtime again.
...
Jincheng Building, lobby on the 1st floor.
When Zhang Wei arrived, he found that there were many people gathered here today.
He recognized several of them, all from Jincheng Law Firm, and several of them were newcomers to the litigation department.
However, they did not meet Zhang Wei, and they appeared here today to obtain a practicing certificate.
"It's in the envelope of the practice certificate that was mailed this morning. You can pick it up by name. Don't take it by mistake!"
The receptionist in the hall took out a stack of envelope bags and put them on the exhibition stand for others to choose from.
Zhang Wei also followed and found an envelope bag with his name written on it.
"Good job!"
After Zhang Wei got the envelope bag, he searched here for a while, and got the envelope bag with the names "Li Yueqin" and "Lin Yumeng" written on it.
He opened the V letter, sent the message in the discussion group of the criminal team, and told the two friends that he helped them get the practice certificate.
After receiving the responses from the two, Zhang Wei went upstairs to wait.
At 9 o'clock, Lin Yumeng and Li Yueqin arrived one after another.
"Wow, practicing license, I'm a practicing lawyer~"
As soon as she got the license, Lin Yumeng cheered happily. Although Li Yueqin was not so exaggerated, the curvature of her mouth betrayed her heart.
For law students, getting a practicing certificate is a happy thing.
"By the way, where's the old man?"
Zhang Wei waited for a long time, but Tie Ruyun hadn't arrived yet.
"The team leader said that there was a traffic jam on the road. It seemed that there was a car accident ahead and he was waiting for the field staff to come over. He told us not to wait for him!"
Li Yueqin looked at the V letter group chat records on the phone, and said immediately.
"Good guy, I just said don't drive on weekends, Dongfangdu is so congested on weekends!"
Zhang Wei complained that since Tie Ruyun didn't come, he had to bring his friends to meet the client.
"Come on, pack up, let's go to the insurance company to meet the representative!"
Anyway, they have all obtained their practicing certificates and are already practicing lawyers, so they are not afraid of clients asking.
Since Tie Ruyun couldn't come here, they could only take the subway to the insurance company.
Fortunately, the address of the insurance company is also in Central, which can be reached by subway.
25 minutes later, Dongjiang Business District.
After the three of Zhang Wei arrived here, they went straight to a building in the business district, where the client they wanted to meet was here.
Their client is called "Sincerity Insurance", and the company's headquarters is located in the Dongjiang business district. It has three floors, and the scale is not small.
Sincerity Insurance has assets of more than 10 billion, and it is considered a large-scale insurance company in the southern area of Longguo, with branches and offices in various parts of the southern region.
However, because of the reputation of insurance companies, many law firms do not want to file a lawsuit against them, and it is difficult for them to hire very famous external lawyers.
Even if the insurance company is willing to pay the lawyer's fee, there are only a few people who can come to help them with the lawsuit.
"The three of you, please wait a moment in the big conference room, our representatives will be there soon!"
The front desk of Sincere Insurance led Zhang Wei and the three into a large conference room, but after they entered, they found that several lawyers had also come here.
"Hey guys, this is a separate investment!"
Zhang Wei secretly exclaimed that it is no wonder the insurance company agreed quickly. It turned out that it not only found one, but also made an appointment to meet today.
In other words, the insurance company intends to let these lawyers compete among themselves, and then choose the most powerful one.
As expected of an insurance company, I thought this lawsuit was a good way to earn legal fees...
"The people in the insurance company are really smart!"
In fact, not only he thought of it, other lawyers who came here were also surprised by the colleagues who appeared here.
After thinking about it for a while, they knew that they had been tricked by the insurance company.
When they agreed to meet, there was no mention of other lawyers.
"Come on, let me see, what kind of goods are here this time!"
After Zhang Wei sat down with Li Yueqin and Lin Yumeng, he scanned the audience to check the level of the "competitors".
"Weak chicken lawyer, weak chicken lawyer, a little level, a little bit level...Hey, there is a lawyer who is not bad!"
Zhang Wei's eyes swept over the others, but stayed on a woman with wavy hair and colorful manicure.
The man next to the woman was obviously a follower, carrying a folder, timidly, but Zhang Wei directly ignored it.
The key is that this woman is one of the highest-level lawyers here, and her strength is obviously higher than others.
Zhang Wei also found that when some lawyers looked at the woman, they would unconsciously avoid their eyes, as if they were afraid of the woman.
Now, this woman is painting her nails in her office, with a relaxed and contented face.
"Who is this woman, she looks very attractive!"
Zhang Wei wrote down this woman, and if he expected it to be correct, today would be his competition with this woman.
As for the other lawyers, they are all foils!
While waiting, several lawyers came one after another.
These lawyers entered the meeting room and were shocked when they saw so many colleagues.
But when they saw the curly woman, their expressions of astonishment were even worse than before.
Some people even turned around and left the meeting room after seeing the woman, as if they couldn't afford to offend each other.
The reactions of these lawyers were all seen by Zhang Wei's case.
"Is this woman very powerful, but in my eyes, this woman is just passable?"
Zhang Wei didn't think he would be mistaken, but although this woman's strength is not bad, it's impossible to scare away other lawyers, right?
Fortunately, the waiting time passed quickly, and at exactly 10 am, the representative of the insurance company came.
"Hi everyone, I am the representative of Sincerity Insurance. My surname is Cheng. There is one word for grain. You can call me Representative Cheng. Nice to meet all lawyers!"
The person who came was a middle-aged man in his forties. He looked like an executive of the company. After all, he had a Mediterranean hairstyle that is unique to high-level executives.
"Hello, Representative Cheng!"
"Good morning Representative Cheng!"
"Thank you Representative Cheng for taking the time out of his busy schedule to meet with us!"
Now that the representative had spoken, many people followed suit.
Zhang Wei didn't speak, and so did the curly woman, but the latter also put away the nail polish on the table.
"Presumably all of you have heard about our company's case, or have heard about the situation we have faced recently with Sincere Insurance, so I won't go into details here. I can assure you that as long as you can help our company win the lawsuit , not only can we get a generous legal fee, but our company will also sign a long-term contract with you, and the annual legal fee is as high as this amount!"
As Cheng Liang spoke, he raised a finger.
"One million?" A lawyer next door to Zhang Wei muttered, feeling very excited.
It was as if he had never received such a high lawyer's fee in his entire life.
"It's small, the layout is small!"
Seeing this, Zhang Wei sneered.
For a company with over 10 billion assets and an insurance company, it is impossible to pay only 1 million for the annual fee of external lawyers. Isn't that the same as sending beggars?
"Ten million!" Cheng Liang directly reported the amount without asking everyone to guess.
Hearing this amount, some people were surprised, and some people were shocked.
Even Li Yueqin who was beside Zhang Wei opened her mouth and lost her composure.
This amount, in her opinion, is already very exaggerated.
Of course, this is also the drawback of criminal lawyers.
I don't get any big cases on weekdays, and I'm stunned when I hear 10 million legal fees.
If it is replaced by a business team or a project team, for any merger and acquisition case, the lawyer's fee may cost tens of millions.
Compared to Li Yueqin's gaffe, Zhang Wei was really satisfied with Lin Yumeng.
Look at the little apprentice, he didn't even blink his eyes when he heard the ten million legal fee, this is the one who does big things!
In fact, Lin Yumeng was thinking at this moment: 10 million, this company is so stingy, the money it gives can't afford my house.
"Mr. Cheng, just tell me if you have something to do, and I will do my best!"
Hearing the 10 million legal fee, someone expressed his opinion immediately.
Cheng Liang was very satisfied with the effect, at least it mobilized many people's competitive spirit.
However, his attention was focused on the very few people who were not overwhelmed by the 10 million amount.
Zhang Wei, and that woman with wavy hair.
After they quoted 10 million yuan, their expressions didn't change at all.
This is a formidable lawyer, his face is not showing his face, and he is calm enough!
"I think everyone has also learned about the recent lawsuits my company is facing. I want to hear your opinions?"
Hearing Cheng Liang's request, Zhang Wei secretly said, "Good guy."
This is a strategy of whoring for nothing in the name of "tendering".
It can only be said that it is worthy of being an insurance company, and it is proficient in using this routine.
If Cheng Liang asked him one-on-one later, he also planned to hide his hand and not reveal the truth to the other party.
"Mr. Cheng, I've looked at your case, and I can only say that it's not easy to handle. The plaintiff has terminal cancer and urgently needs an organ replacement operation. You really can't replace it?"
"cannot!"
A lawyer made a suggestion, but Cheng Liang quickly rejected it.
"Well, this case is really difficult to handle, but don't worry, I will try to persuade the other party and the other party's lawyer to reach a settlement!"
Although the lawyer looked embarrassed, he made a promise to Cheng Liang.
"Hehe, I'm not convincing at all, and I'm still making promises. It's a ghost if I can choose you!"
Seeing what the lawyer said, Zhang Wei laughed inwardly.
Cheng Liang probably had already passed this person in his heart.
"Representative Cheng, there are really not many ways to win your case, especially since the plaintiff has children, the jury is a big problem!"
Another lawyer also spoke, and what he said was equivalent to nothing.
"Yes, in your case, my suggestion is to strive for a settlement. The two parties can sit down and discuss the settlement fee!"
A third lawyer spoke, but the suggestion was better than nothing.
Cheng Liang smiled at the lawyers who spoke, but was disappointed in his heart.
These people are either hiding, or they are really not good enough. Their legal affairs have already said these ideas.
But if the plaintiff is really compensated, and the amount of compensation is not small, will other customers also apply for compensation.
If every customer came to them for huge compensation, their sincerity insurance would have gone bankrupt long ago.
Cheng Liang looked around, and finally locked on the curly woman.
This one, he thinks, is the most qualified person among all lawyers, and his aura is extraordinary.
"This lawyer, what's your name?" Cheng Liang decided to greet him first, and get to know him.
"Blackfoot Law Firm, five-year lawyer Wang Meiyan!"
The wavy woman smiled, rather than introducing herself to Cheng Liang, it was better to report her name to everyone present.
"Black-footed people!"
Hearing this introduction, Zhang Wei understood.
No wonder the lawyers around were a little jealous of her, it turned out that she was from Heizu Law Firm.
Zhang Wei is a little familiar with this law firm.
After all, there is still an enemy, and he must know the details of the other party.
"It turned out to be a black foot from the top ten schools. Hello, Lawyer Wang. I don't know what you mean?"
Hearing Wang Meiyan's identity, Cheng Liang also gave him enough face.
"Representative Cheng, there is nothing we can't handle if we go out with black feet. But I also have a request. If your company wants to use my black feet' services and hire me as a representative lawyer, the annual legal fee will be doubled." , and the legal fee for this case must be multiplied by 2!"
Good guy, this black-footed person is really domineering. Either he doesn't speak up, or if he does, it means an annual employment fee of 20 million yuan, plus 1 million yuan in legal fees.
"This..." Although Cheng Liang was the representative, he couldn't make a decision right away.
In particular, Heizu also asked for more money, which is not something he can decide alone.
"Lawyer Wang, your request..."
"Representative Cheng, this is not a high request, is it? Besides, I believe that no cat or dog will want to compete with us for the case that we Heizu will take on!"
The woman said, showing a snake-like gaze, and scanned the audience.
The lawyer who was stared at by her trembled subconsciously, showing timidity.
Heizu's lawyer said so, and the meaning is already obvious.
They want this case black enough, and the lawyers who are not qualified will get out of the court for me!
"Representative Cheng, although I really want to serve your company, since Heizu's lawyer is going to come out, I know I'm not as strong as the other party, so I won't participate!"
"Yes, with Lawyer Wang here, we won't waste your time."
"You guys should discuss the contract carefully. We are leaving. Goodbye, Representative Cheng!"
After a while, the lawyers in the entire meeting room ran away.
The rest hesitated for a moment, but after being glared at by Wang Meiyan again, they could only leave resentfully.
The entire conference room suddenly became empty.
Wang Meiyan is very satisfied with this effect, their black feet are so domineering.
"Hey, there are still people who are not afraid of my black feet. These three young people are rookies at first glance, right?"
But soon, she found that there were still people in the meeting room, and they were three young people.
"Representative Cheng, I think we can also help you with this case. How about we charge you 990,000 for legal fees?"
It was Zhang Wei who spoke this time.
Since Heizu wants 1 million, he subtracted 10,000 from the other party's request, which can be regarded as a naked provocation to Wang Meiyan.
Cheng Liang didn't expect that there were still people who were not afraid of the power of the top ten black feet, but he was a little surprised to see Zhang Wei's performance.
This looks like a young lawyer, who is not afraid of black feet.
Is this really emboldened, or is it a strong support scene?
