Who Made Him a Lawyer?
Chapter 332 - 229: Black Market! Smuggled Drugs!
A lawyer may have morals, but often their victory rate doesn’t look good, and over time they might end up starving.
And at this time, if one were to discard their so-called conscience...
Then the winning rate and the money earned would snowball!
The Blue Shield Law Firm made its fortune this way, annexing several small firms in succession, intercepting and using offside tactics to turn the firm into an industry star. One case after another followed, attracting other top-notch lawyers to join.
Eventually, Blue Shield became the dominant firm in the entire Qingshi City, monopolizing all high-fee cases, leaving other firms angry but silent!
This domineering behavior has been going on for the past ten years, and just as they were preparing to expand outside the province, they encountered the insensible Xu Liang...
"Chen Liang."
Chai Shiring suddenly spoke, frowning as thoughts formed in his mind.
Chen Liang, still lost in thought over his lost top-notch lawyer status, instinctively turned his head at the sound.
"I’m here."
Chai Shiring said, "You go and take on Zhao Hailong’s defense commission now."
"To prevent losing the opportunity to make a profit!" 𝘧𝓇𝑒𝑒𝑤ℯ𝑏𝓃𝘰𝑣ℯ𝘭.𝘤ℴ𝘮
Hearing this, Chen Liang’s lips quivered, a struggle flashing in his eyes.
Zhao Hailong and Zhang Yong, after being apprehended by Sun Chuan from Jiang City, would soon be transferred to Qingshi City.
The reason is simple; the case is too severe, and a primary court in Jiang City can’t handle the first trial. According to the law, it must be transferred to Qingshi City.
Correspondingly,
Blue Shield only needs to take on the commission in Qingshi City!
But...
To really take on Zhao Hailong’s defense!? Indeed, the public opinion might outweigh the plaintiff, but most of it would be negative publicity, and Chen Liang... was genuinely unwilling.
Before he could speak, the other lawyers in the firm burst into discussion.
"Director Chai, you’re really letting Lawyer Chen take the defense!?"
Someone exclaimed, pausing, then continued.
"Did the price not meet Qi Tao’s demands, or what?"
"It was Xu Liang who intercepted when dealing with the civil to criminal transition."
Chen Liang quickly spoke, clenching his hands tightly, his tone heavy with emotion, murmuring:
"Don’t know what spell Qi Tao was under, willing to forego our firm’s offer to sign with him..."
"That Conscience Law Firm in Hanhai City was founded by him!"
Upon hearing this, everyone’s brows furrowed.
Client poached, the firm’s development prospects snatched, no wonder Chai Shiring wanted them to target the Conscience Law Firm...
Thinking of this, the expressions of those around gradually became unfriendly.
This case has high strategic value, and if it could go beyond Lanshan Province... everyone’s worth here could double!
Xu Liang seizing it... is like snatching money!
While these plans were only on paper and not yet losses...
For a wise person,
not earning is a loss!
"Lawyer Dong, accompany Chen Liang in taking the defense."
Chai Shiring suddenly opened his eyes, speaking to those around him.
"On the defense side... try to showcase our strength!"
He made up his mind.
He must take a piece out of Xu Liang!
Even if it’s negative publicity, being a defense lawyer, defending a group of executioners... he still wants to devour it!
Like an ugly toad on the foot, determined to be bothersome!
"Yes."
The man named Lawyer Dong nodded, understanding immediately, but...
He paused abruptly, then spoke, "But Director Chai, your case..."
Previously, he was assisting Chai Shiring with a case. If he left the team now to help Chen Liang... what about Chai Shiring?
Chai Shiring waved his hand.
He was currently working on a case; otherwise, Zhao Hailong’s defense wouldn’t have fallen to Chen Liang!
And this case...
"No worries, the case at the hospital has a clear evidence chain. I don’t need a lot of people, you and Chen Liang go ahead and focus on it."
Upon hearing this.
Lawyer Dong ceased to insist and turned to take Chen Liang to accept the defense commission.
Chen Liang’s lips quivered for a moment, but despite his immense reluctance, he could only carry out the arrangement, ultimately sighing and stepping forward to follow.
In the office hall, the lawyers gradually dispersed.
Chai Shiring stood up, slowly leaving the work area, turning to walk into his private office.
His office was spacious, equipped with workstations and reception areas.
Chai Shiring sat at his desk, staring at the computer, lost in thought, finally reaching down.
"Hiss!"
The drawer was pulled open.
A commission contract appeared before him, and the entrusting party was surprisingly...
"Superstar Pharmaceutical, Qingshi City Tianshan Hospital..."
He gazed at the case, staring at the ’3000000’ figure, eyes fixated.
No doubt, it was a three-million commission contract...
A criminal case with civil implications, one of the top cases for Blue Shield Law Firm, excluding finance...
From a planning perspective,
if Qi Tao signed with them, endless similar cases would come knocking at the firm!
But unfortunately... it got snatched away by a small firm.
"Ha, once this case at hand is dealt with..."
Chai Shiring’s eyes narrowed, recalling Xu Liang’s appearance at Qi Tao’s house, immediately smirking coldly.
The legal industry is a scenario of big fish eating small fish, small fish eating shrimp.
The other side could have settled for shrimp, yet wanted to compete with him...
"There’s plenty of time to play with you slowly."
...
...
"This case directly attacks Blue Shield Law Firm!"
