Embezzlement of millions, prison punishment unavoidable, with Zhiming's assistance obtained lighter penalty
[2] Today, the team of Attorney Wang Tengfeng from Guangdong Zhiming Law Firm received a criminal judgment. Through the dedicated efforts and vigorous arguments of Attorneys Zeng Jie and Li Zuolin, a favorable outcome was finally secured for our client Li, living up to the trust placed in the two lawyers by Li and his wife.
When Li first came into contact with this case, he was prosecuted by the prosecutor's office for embezzlement. His wife was very anxious and found the lawyer team of Wang Tengfeng from Zhiming Law Firm. After carefully listening to the case with Lawyer Wang, Lawyer Zeng, and Lawyer Li, he believed that the case was not simple. After all, the evidence in front of him was as solid as a mountain. If he blindly tried to plead not guilty, not only would he not be able to help Li, but he might also end up spending several more years in prison. Lawyer Wang guided the team of Lawyer Zeng and Lawyer Li on how to perfectly defend minor offenses: firstly, to make the victim understand and issue a letter of forgiveness; The second is to have Li confess in court and actively withdraw his guilt; Thirdly, during the court defense, it was proven and emphasized that Li was an accomplice, and his subjective malice was not significant. Lawyer Zeng and Lawyer Li vividly demonstrated this defense method through their artistic rights litigation. It is worth mentioning that during the first court hearing, due to our sufficient preparation and strong defense, the prosecution suggested that the court postpone the trial for three months. This also indicates to some extent that our side has taken the first step of victory, followed by the second court hearing.
[4] The second hearing also proceeded smoothly. Perhaps due to the groundwork laid in the first session or the prosecution's careful consideration, the court ultimately imposed the minimum sentence of three years within the recommended range of three to five years. Client Li accepted this outcome, acknowledging his past wrongdoing and the necessity of facing consequences. Nevertheless, he expressed deep gratitude to the lawyers at Zhiming Law Firm, crediting them for the minimum sentence and for ensuring his right to defense was meaningfully upheld.
