Why should a lawyer defend the "bad guys"?

Introduction: From childhood to adulthood, do you always hear the phrase "if you do something wrong, you should be punished". However, when they grow up, they find that people who break the law always have lawyers to defend them. Why should a lawyer defend the "bad guys"? Read this article I believe you will have a new understanding, welcome to read.

　　Netizens think so

　　"The magic of love in circles: as long as you defend the bad guys, you're the bad guys!"

　　"Fly your wings: Defend the bad guys, you're the unscrupulous lawyer!!"

　　"Extreme Player: I don't understand and don't understand the law, but you defend the bad guys, and what you say is wrong!"

　　Sure enough, the netizens' views on this issue are not surprisingly consistent, although consistent, but too subjective, so what should we think about this problem? That may first require a brief understanding of what a lawyer is.

　　What is a lawyer

　　Lawyer refers to a person who accepts an entrustment or designation to provide legal services such as litigation representation or defense business to the parties. As a legal person, lawyers are the priority legal standard in judging criminalization.

　　There is no such thing as a "bad guy" in law

　　As for the question of whether the client is a "bad person", what the lawyer says does not count, what you say does not count, and what I say does not count, until the end of the court trial, in law, the client should be regarded as innocent. In law, there is no such thing as a "bad person", which is why before the trial, the people who are approved for arrest are called "criminal suspects" and "defendants".

　　In order to ensure the fairness and impartiality of justice

　　Even "criminal suspects" and "defendants" have the right to carry out corresponding lawsuits, and for those who cannot hire a defense lawyer, the judicial organs will also apply for free legal aid from legal aid institutions. Think about it from another perspective, if you have been wronged, but the evidence that people see is that the spearhead of the crime is directed at you, what do you do?

　　The "bad guys" also have the right to defend themselves

　　The right to a defense is the right to guide criminal defendants and their defenders in defending, refuting, and disproving from the facts, evidence, laws, punishment, and other aspects of the crimes that have been accused or pursued, so as to safeguard the lawful rights and interests of the defendants and enable the case to be handled fairly and lawfully; Refers to the right granted by the Criminal Procedure Law to parties and their defenders to carry out defense activities against accusations. The right to a defence, which is a fundamental right of citizens, is not to be judged by good or bad, or even by the crime or non-crime after the court has pronounced it. The right to a defence can be waived, but it is inalienable, whatever the pretext.

　　Lawyers also need to make ends meet

　　From a business perspective alone, do you think there is a difference between a lawyer and the work you are exposed to? No, if you insist on making a difference, then it may be that lawyers use legal knowledge to serve others, while other professions use other ways to carry out their work, and defense is only the work of lawyers, working for the sake of life, aren't you?

　　Therefore, for lawyers, trying to do a good job in each case is the essence of the lawyer's work, and it will not change depending on who the target is. Those who commit crimes will be severely punished by the law, and those who have been wronged will eventually be washed away, all of which depend on every legal worker, and lawyers are an indispensable role.
