|
4.Q：I’ve heard that I can join
your Law Firm Square for free
now, but will you charge me
later on?
|
A：It’s
true that all the counties in
our Law Firm are currently free
to use. This means that someone
who applies for the law of the
county first, may occupy the
county without charge, and
doesn’t need to think about the
charge, until there are other
lawyers who are willing to join
our Square by means of bidding.
However, your law firm can only
occupy one county for free in
one of the particular 15 laws.
|
|
5.Q：For how long may I keep
the county for free?
|
A：You
can keep it as long as no one
else wants the same room, or
begins bidding for the space.
However, if another law firm
raises a bidding price for the
county that you have already
occupied for free, we will
notify you and give you 7 days
to consider, whether you would
like to accept the price or not.
Pursuant to the rule of “Who
joins first, has the priority
over the others”, you can retain
the county at the new price,
if you have agreed on the price.
If an agreement is not reached,
then the ownership must be
transferred to the other bidding
party.
|
|
6.Q：What is my period of
validity if I obtained the
county by bidding?
|
A：You
can keep it for 3 months by
bidding. If other law firms want
the same county and submit a
higher bidding price during
these 3 months, you still own
the priority right to decide
whether you'd like to keep it,
after your 3-month termination.
If you agree to the new price of
the rent for the following 3
months, you can still continue
to use our county extending
your previous lease. If not your
right of possession will be
deemed void and canceled.
|
|
7.Q：What
shall I do if my intended
county was taken by others?
|
A：You
can still get the room by
bidding, pursuant to the rule of
“Who joins first has the
priority over the others”. You
must raise a higher bidding
price than the present tenant,
until he/she won't increase
their bid any more, then the
room will become yours.
|
|
8.Q：What
is the system for the bidding
price?
|
A：The
price starts at $100 per month
and each bid must be in $50
increments.

Firm Square as I please?

our professional legal media,
which entitles you the right to
call a halt to your available

clients pay the retaining fees
to USLawChina?
|
|
A：USLawChina
does not have the right to
receive any fees directly from
the clients. As to the system of
payment, there is only the bank
account of the law firm and the
information about online payment
on the “lawyers’ list”;
therefore clients can only
choose the options of bank
transfer, post check, or online
payment to pay their fees.
If it so happened that a client
paid their fees to USLawChina by
mistake, we have the responsible
duty to transfer the amount of
money to the bank account
designated by the law firm as
soon as possible.

the questions to the attorney.
After the attorney answers the
questions, USLawChina will
translate the English answer to

offering the paid consultation
service to the customers, do
Attorneys have to bear
risk of
no payment on the service?

A：Whether
clients choose E-mail
consultation, Tripartite Video
consultation, or interview in
your office, clients should
always pay fees to the attorney
in advance. But In the case of
overtime consultation, the
attorney will take the risk of
no payment on the overtime
service, if he or she agrees to
continue with the consultation.
|
|
16.Q：How
can the attorney be sure that USLawChina will not handle cases
in his/her name?

A：Firstly,
this would be a fraudulent
action and will incur criminal
prosecution. USLawChina will not
risk the loss of reputation and
money to take this illegal
action. Secondly, USLawChina’s
function is like the outsourcing
secretary of a law firm in total
cooperation with attorneys. All
the consulting information that
USLawChina receives from
clients, will also be received
at the same time by the lawyer
firm’s designated mailbox. We
only make translations of the
clients’ questions and
attorney’s answers, and will not
be involved in the analysis of
cases, or making, or providing
answers independently from
attorneys.

if I have other questions to ask
you?
