The trial transcript can be retrieved, but it does not rule out that some courts do not cooperate and let lawyers and judges communicate more.
This question leads to two main problems. First, did the lawyer fully analyze and predict the case when accepting the case? Did the lawyer inform the client of the litigation risks? Second, did the lawyer inform the client to appear in court before the trial? Has the lawyer fulfilled his obligation to inform?
For the first question, our lawyer must inform the client of the litigation risks before accepting the case. At present, Guangdong Lawyers Association requires the parties to issue a written Notice of Litigation Risk when accepting a case. Lawyers should not only pay attention to the facts of the case, but also analyze the evidence and do a good job in legal search. In general, the probability of winning is predictable.
Of course, pre-judgment does not mean that litigation is guaranteed. Do not interpret it as 100%. I hope everyone understands that it is a higher requirement for lawyers' responsibilities and professionalism.
On the second question, under normal circumstances, if a lawyer is entrusted to appear in court, the client may not appear in court.
Legal basis:
Article 15 of the Supreme People's Court's Provisions on Evidence in Civil Litigation stipulates that if the parties take audio-visual materials as evidence, they shall provide the original carrier for the preservation of audio-visual materials. If the parties take electronic data as evidence, they shall provide the original. A copy made by an electronic data producer that is consistent with the original, or a printed copy directly derived from electronic data or other output media that can be displayed and identified, is regarded as the original of electronic data.
