What's wrong with this lawyer?! Chapter 432

Chapter 432: Chapter 158: It’s Invalid?

Eh, You Can Go Complain (Two-In-One)_6 Chapter 432: Chapter 158: It’s Invalid?

Eh, You Can Go Complain (Two-In-One)_6 The contract is indeed real, it’s just that a different thod was used for accounting.

If this money was really made, eighty-five percent of it would all go to Old Tang.

The remaining fifteen percent goes to the law firm, taxes and managent fees and all that included.

So you can understand why every ti Old Tang fools around outside, Old Wang would be cursing there…

Old Tang doesn’t take a penny, so the bulk of it is saved.

The law firm, on the other hand, has to settle the remaining accounts, and at the very least, you have to do the taxes properly.

...

Of course, compared to the benefits brought by Old Tang, this amount of money is actually not much.

If there’s a problem, it’s the suspicion of providing free legal services in violation of regulations.

But if the Lawyers Association itself thinks there’s no problem, then there isn’t one, especially since there are indeed many lawyers who do pro bono work.

Truth be told, it’s within the scope of the civil code for a lawyer to use professional knowledge for public welfare; your Lawyers Association’s regulations certainly won’t have a higher standing than the civil code…

I need to clarify here, this is not extortion.

Extortion requires illegal possession as its purpose and involves threatening behavior, whereas Old Tang’s fees all have a basis, and the contracts are genuinely valid.

And there is no threatening behavior involved because this is what he also plans to write in his subsequent pleadings.

As for whether the court supports it or not, that’s up to the court, although generally speaking, it wouldn’t…

Six hundred and sixty thousand!

The two from Fengyu Company widened their eyes in astonishnt.

The other party really dares to ask for that much!

Gao Qingwen stood up and said, “Six hundred thousand, right?

I damn well don’t believe that Li Fugui would give you so much money.

Can he even co up with that much?”

Zheng Xingfa, with a dark face, said, “You’re extorting us!

The law stipulates that legal fees should not be borne by the defendant.

Why are you demanding this money from us?”

Both were getting heated, and before Judge Wang could say anything, Tang Fangjing across the table slamd his hand on the table, stood up, and bellowed, “Why?

I’m damn well going to tell you why!”

“Coming up with every possible thod to deduct money from an ordinary person and using various ans to avoid risks.

Now, for this matter, we’ve spent nearly three months of ti, applied for arbitration three tis and litigation once!”

“And we’re about to go through at least one more arbitration and two more litigations!”

“Previously, when we asked you to pay, you wouldn’t.

After all this effort and just as the case is about to be resolved, you pop up and offer so money, thinking you can settle with diation?”

“All this legal support or not, this is diation, not going to court.”

“You wretched things, I feel uncomfortable even talking to you, do you know that?”

Let’s be honest, it’s normal for capital to seek profit.

Food delivery platforms have been criticized to no end, but people still say everything they do is legal.

But for a subcontracting company to use such disgusting thods to withhold wages, forcing soone to go through all sorts of legal hoops for so long and now, when there’s finally a result, you think you can settle by just refunding the money?

Old Tang’s sudden outburst caught everyone off guard.

Even Judge Wang was bewildered.

What’s gotten into him, why does he seem more agitated than the actual parties involved…

Finally, Judge Wang spoke, “Well…

Lawyer Tang, don’t get agitated, calm down.”

If it were soone else pounding the table and cursing, they might have been given a warning or even detained, but this was Tang Fangjing…

Upon hearing those words, Old Tang imdiately revealed a smile, “Sorry, I lost my temper just now.

I hope none of you mind?”

Zheng Xingfa thought, speak for yourself, you yelled right in our faces, asking if we mind!

“Oh, and to answer your question, my client indeed didn’t pay.

He has no money, so he was thinking of gathering so first, and then slowly paying back that money.”

That just makes the lawyer fees an ordinary debt.

The law firm itself agrees on owing the money, so it’s not up to an outsider like you to say anything.

Xia Deming’s accompanying legal officer finally couldn’t hold back and said, “Lawyer Tang, what you are doing, there is a suspicion of contingency representation, which is not allowed in labor compensation cases under the Lawyers Law!”

“Oh?

Is this contingency representation?

Then you can sue to confirm that our contract is invalid.

Oh, that’s right, you’re not the party involved, or you can report to the Lawyers Association and see how they investigate.”

“I fully support any investigation and disciplinary outco from our Jingzhou Lawyers Association, but until the Lawyers Association cos out with a result, it’s not up to you whether the contract is valid or not.”

What’s known as fighting fire with fire is what Xia Deming and others are experiencing instantly.

You know the contract might be invalid, you know the person’s behavior might be against the rules, but you have to find evidence, you have to file a complaint, and then you wait for the process to conclude before there’s an official determination.

However, looking at the current progress, by the ti the Lawyers Association delivers a result, it will all be moot…

Old Tang is indifferent.

The worst could be a suspension of license by the Jingzhou Lawyers Association and the judicial departnt for a few months, taking so ti off for concentrated study; after all, he has plenty of life left.

This is how he was in his previous life.

Being a lawyer is not about always playing nice; that’s impossible.

Almost every prominent lawyer has so tricky moves.

In any case, as long as his license isn’t revoked, in a few months, he will be back in action again.

The legal officer was so choked up he couldn’t even speak.

When a lawyer like Tang Fangjing starts playing for ti and acting shalessly, it usually ans he has calculated all the subsequent moves.

Judge Wang was gritting his teeth in frustration, and finally, the diator spoke, “Lawyer Tang, don’t you think this is a bit too much?”
