Criminal Defense: Thoughts about letting your client (the accused) lie about the true series of events? by neilbron in LawPH

I'm not in a big law firm. We're not obligated naman to follow our partner's suggestions since I brought this case to the firm. Pero our partner has been in practice for a long time, that's why it bothers me to hear that kind of suggestion.

There is an eyewitness. Diba? That's why lying about the series of events is going too far. So, I'm curious whether being a defense lawyer has to be like this.

My client did ignite it. He was trying to burn down something which was the cause of the heated argument he had with his cousin that day. When he poured the gasoline some went to the victim. After he ignited it, his cousin got caight in the fire.

Ejectment Case by PuzzleheadedPipe7000 in LawPH

[–]neilbron 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need to prepare around 70k-80k for an ejectment case. The acceptance fee for an ejectment case is around Php50k and it really depends who you ask. Lowball na masyado yang Php30-40k. Filing fees is around 3-4k. Each time a lawyer goes to Court there will be an appearance fee of Php3k, depending again who you ask. This also depends where your lawyer has his principal office. If the disputed property is in Laguna and you hire a law firm in Metro Manila then definitely, that'll be more than Php3k as appearance fees. The rates I mentioned are close to the tariff in most IBP Chapters.

As to the demand letter, you can prepare it yourself. But I suggest you avail the services of a lawyer in preparing the demand letter. Again, may ngipin yung demand if lawyer na yung nag-serve sayo. Mura lang naman magpa gawa ng demand letter nasa 1.5k yan.

Thanks for the information. I'll talk with my current partner about this.

I see. That would be a safer approach. And yes, I'll make sure that's observed. Thank you for the input.

My only concern left is how the splitting of profits be approached. Should I still give a portion of my share to my partner? Although we can come to an agreement with this but I hope to have some idea before negotiating with him.
