Defending in the highest court in the world, the first time I saw a Tibetan antelope worth $300,000, I suddenly couldn’t breathe in the defense... Yesterday, 2019 “1+1” action lawyer volunteer farewell party He was held in Guangzhou and sent off to 21 outstanding lawyers who went to the difficult counties of the central and western regions.

Mother went to legal aid daughter to help the orphan

Yan Zhiyu, secretary of the Party Committee and Director of the Guangdong Provincial Department of Justice, who attended the farewell party, said that in 2019, Guangdong had selected 22 lawyer volunteers to participate in the “1+1” operation. In the past year, volunteer lawyers answered the local people in poverty in poor areas. Legal consultation, writing legal documents, handling legal aid cases, and assisting in the promotion of law-enforcement. Throughout the year, more than 1,000 legal aid cases were handled, involving disabled people, the elderly, minors, migrant workers, women and other groups. . More than 8,000 legal consultations were received, effectively meeting the legal aid needs of the service areas.

Yan Zhixuan said that this year, 21 "1+1" legal aid lawyers sent by Guangdong will go to remote counties in the central and western provinces of Tibet, Xinjiang, Gansu, etc., of which 8 are old legal aids that were "certified" last year. Continue to assist this year. It is worth mentioning that Jiang Yafang, the only female lawyer renewed this year, is the director of a law firm. She has been in business for more than 20 years. “There is no need to say that a few million in a year.” However, she is willing to give up her richness. The income is only 20,000 yuan per year from the China Legal Aid Foundation. Last year, she went to the Yunnan-Yunnan region for legal aid. This year, she renewed her visa to Xinjiang. This time my mother went to the western legal aid, and the daughter at that time also did not let her go to the orphanage in Tanzania to volunteer. Yesterday afternoon, the mother and daughter went to the airport together and said goodbye.

Long-term trial with altitude sickness

After staying there for a year, Wang Yunsong insisted on staying in local support this year. He told reporters that it was a train to Tibet. The altitude of Nagqu is 4,600 meters, and the strong altitude sickness makes Wang Yunsong almost unable to support.

Wang Yunsong was very impressed with a case of intentional homicide. He started the court at 10 in the morning and stayed until nearly four o'clock in the afternoon. He only had a five-minute recess in the middle of the hour. The long-term court session was a The real test. Constantly asking each defendant to verify the details of each case, Wang Yunsong gasped more and more frequently. Just when asked about the last defendant, it was about two in the afternoon, and he suddenly couldn’t breathe. "This feeling of speech is unspeakable, just like dead once but lived right away."

The bailiff immediately brought a glass of water. "I took a sip and felt that I was alive."

In the year of Naqu, Wang Yunsong provided legal advice for more than 300 person-times, nearly 50 complaints and defenses, 19 civil legal aid cases, and 3 judicial mediations.

The law firm is in trouble and does not regret

In the days of Naqu, Wang Yunsong was deeply touched by the enthusiasm and simplicity of the local people. Considering that he still had a lot of work at hand, after careful consideration, he decided to stay in the local support. This is not an easy decision for him.

At the time of registration, Wang Yun’s personal law firm was released after two years of hard work. The number of lawyers has reached nearly 30, and the law firm has gradually embarked on the right track. “It can be said that if I don’t leave Guangzhou, the law firm will be able to Get better development."

It was also the departure of Wang Yunsong that the law firm’s operations were once again in difficulty. In order to alleviate the pressure of management, he moved the law firm from a high-end office building to a dilapidated place, and lawyers also took most of the time. "It seems inevitable that this inadvertentness will come back. I don't regret it. My life path has changed."
