Chapter 361: Want an acquittal and a ticket abroad? Dream on!
All the criminal suspects had identified the same person, yet that person was acquitted and released afterward.
Guilty, yet acquitted and released...
For Wan Xiangdong, representing someone in a case like this...
Would give his reputation in criminal law an enormous boost.
Su Bai was concerned with speaking up for the disadvantaged.
Those things were not his concern. What he needed to consider was what could bring him sufficient benefits.
In his view, that was what a lawyer should normally consider.
As long as he could win this case, it would be a fairly good outcome for both Huang Xuemei and himself.
Besides...
White Jun Law Firm's branch office was now flourishing in the Northern Capital.
If it lost this lawsuit, that would also significantly curb White Jun Law Firm's development in the Northern Capital.
After all... there were only so many Case Leads to go around.
There was fierce competition between law firms.
Never mind different Law Firms—even lawyers within the same Law Firm competed fiercely.
Some lawyers would even poach business from others at their own Law Firm.
The more famous a lawyer was, the more Case Leads they attracted, and the better the quality of those Case Leads.
From that perspective, as long as he could win this trial...
Wan Xiangdong's reputation in the profession would rise considerably.
For example, when introducing him, someone could simply say-
"Have you heard of Su Bai, that formidable undefeated lawyer online?"
"Lawyer Wan easily beat him in such-and-such a case!"
Once word got out like that, wouldn't his reputation soar?
At that thought, Wan Xiangdong quietly looked toward Su Bai, who was questioning the witness.
Whatever happened, he only needed to hold firm on the issue of direct evidence
