Will a lawyer, if you are under investigation in a criminal case?

People who do not may God grant you fall into the hands of the lawyers. Especially because of personal inclination to litigation or pravdoborstvu.
If suddenly you need a criminal lawyer, I can try to give some advice.
When do you need a lawyer? When trouble! And so people will quickly make a stupid, losing time, money and faith in people.
What is the main problem? IN THE CRIMINAL COURT NO COMMON SENSE!
Judged not by the law, but on concepts. Investigators quickly "mold" thing and dump its prosecutor. The prosecutor is rarely read anything except the first page of the indictment. Appeal to his common sense, to pity - it is useless. So much he had seen enough for the killers and maniacs, that sympathy is easier to cause a stone wall. 

But what is especially offensive, your own lawyer does not read the case materials, the indictment.
Why? Because of these lawyers is almost gone. Remained "pushers" who are trying for the client's money to "negotiate".
The classical case in court today: 90% of the defendants are not in serious crime (selected mobile phone, a fight, "the black digger"), written confession to the investigator immediately after his arrest. This includes individuals who apply a "special order" (when no one causes to the court and the punishment no greater than 2 / 3 of the maximum). That entire he wants the defendant - a smaller period, but rather conditional. Lawyer hangs to deceive relatives - $ 5000 - and conditional. Takes money, and ... does nothing.
In 90% of cases the judges he softens the sentence, looking at the minor-pervohoda halfwits. And if not - the money the lawyer returns with the words "Well, did not work!". Divorce clean water. And the acting train. There's even a special name - to take money under the "result". And that's fair. Some of the money and do not return. Begin to threaten, even worse. On appeal, they say, the term "catch up".
Judges are not that incorruptible. Just because $ 5000 will not even talk. Too many supervisors - and the FSB and the police. Moment to take action. All of these hints, all of these hikes lawyer in the room before a judge (actually located in the judicial reception, go to the judge - almost a crime) - it's just a game for the grieving families who pray for a rogue, a lawyer, as an icon.
The situation is much more complicated if the matter serious: murder, fatal accidents or, worse yet, economic crime.
Well, with murders and arrivals is more or less just, the lawyers know where to push: where experts is slack, where you can talk to witnesses. But with the economy - full welds. In Moscow, not to mention the outback, no lawyers in criminal cases with economic education.

Yes, the units have the experience to protect embezzlers and thieves, but no more. In the case of a complex, much less a custom case - consider the pipe.
Counsel did not recognize myself, but it is a fact - they do not understand or know the economy. And time does not understand himself, he can not explain to a judge or jury. All felled by experts.
The ratio of lawyers to the accused is not better relations prosecutor or investigator. Lazy to read it. Reads only the indictment and sometimes, if he can understand the expert opinion. Be sure to try to get an advance payment for services.
Do not visit the client in prison (without the investigator) as soon as received the money. He was "busy" studying the matter.
Just waiting to persuade a client to confess and agree to the terms of the prosecutor. And most "cut" money for "efforts to reduce the time limit."
What's the solution of the deadlock?
Suppose you have ordered. Purchased investigator put you in jail. And you're a native (business partners) are looking for a lawyer.
Even if you are very rich, try to observe the following rules:
Lawyers should be two. One front (in regalia, etc.). The second - "workhorse" which runs in prison, is writing and transmission.
The money will pay only in person. In the sense that the contract was with you. To know who feeds them.
Accept the fact that lawyers are always late. ALWAYS. EVERYWHERE. Especially for a meeting with you. If not too late - he or young, or the clock is not translated. So do not worry.
Contract only with monthly payments (believe me, even in the case of 2-3 years of judicial investigation - cheaper than come out). No advance payment under the contract. Otherwise, the lawyer will see only at meetings of the court, but on appeal.
Do not be afraid to change lawyers. It's okay. Check their work, specific instructions on the collection of evidence in your defense. Feel free to check the rights (friends, according to rumors).
Need to know the case to protect the client. And nobody but you, not read. Even the investigator materials sewn interns, the indictment print artists.
The first order lawyer - a photocopy of the case. Photographs the whole thing, print out a copy for you. You will have something to do in jail. Very often, right in your business has everything you need to clear you. And that is found in the mountain of accounting records and examinations have to read it. So go for themselves personally, page for page, with a notebook and pen in hand. It is very important to myself to have an opinion - based on the record.
You're the head, take it as a business project. Read the documents in person. Relegate it to no one. At the same time grasp of specific terminology. For example, first item is written, then a part, and only then the number of the Law, which you may have broken. Say no "page", and "list" case. Knowledge of terms allows you to look like a competent person in the eyes of the judges and the more self-defense.
The economic case no one except you can not do anything and to prove (in your favor). Therefore, read the code yourself. There all very nice and simple. And write, write all your thoughts. Rehearse interrogations, in writing. Analyze the witnesses, read their interrogations of criminal proceedings and record additional questions to the court to withdraw the liars to clean water.
Do not confuse the arbitration and the criminal case. In arbitration, important documents and testimony in a criminal case and opinion. Whether you fly at least in the treaties on the basis of slander cleaners can "drop in" for eight years.
And do not buy into the promises.
Really get out of prison to freedom before the end of the investigation only if there is no material claim. If the claim is, and you are not willing to negotiate with the applicants - will be seated. Minimum of 1.5 years, while attending a judicial investigation. The law does not limit nor the investigator nor a judge to assess your level of danger to society. It is easier if you behind bars, the meeting will not fall apart.
