痛点1:程序知情权完全缺失,首次讯问权利受损。芬兰《庭前调查法令》明确规定,犯罪嫌疑人在首次讯问前,有权完整获知涉嫌罪名、保持沉默的权利、聘请律师的权利,且律师有权全程在场参与首次讯问。但华人嫌疑人因语言不通,绝大多数情况下无法准确理解警方告知的法定权利,甚至在无律师在场、无专业翻译的情况下完成首次讯问,作出对自身不利的供述。而芬兰刑事司法实践中,首次讯问笔录是法院认定案件事实的核心证据,一旦形成不利供述,后续诉讼阶段推翻的难度极大。 - 痛点2:律师介入黄金时机严重延误。芬兰法律明确规定,嫌疑人被拘留或羁押期间,必须依其要求为其指定辩护律师;涉嫌可能判处4个月以上监禁刑的犯罪,嫌疑人自被警方控制之日起,即享有无条件的律师会见权。但华人嫌疑人因无法联系到精通中文的本地执业律师,往往在被拘留后24-72小时的关键窗口期内,无法获得任何专业法律帮助,错过律师介入的黄金时机,甚至在警方提请羁押、法院作出羁押决定的全过程中,无任何专业律师为其提出抗辩。 - 痛点3:对芬兰羁押制度存在根本性误解,羁押抗辩完全失效。芬兰不存在英美法系的保释金制度,也与中国的取保候审制度存在本质差异,其羁押替代措施的核心是法院基于法定条件作出的非监禁命令,而非财产担保。芬兰《强制措施法令》明确规定,羁押的法定适用情形仅有三类:嫌疑人有逃避刑事制裁的风险、有篡改证据/干扰证人作证的风险、有继续实施犯罪的风险;仅对可能判处2年以上监禁刑,且嫌疑人拒不说明真实身份、未在芬兰定居、随时可能离境逃避制裁的,才可适用预防性羁押。但华人嫌疑人普遍误以为“缴纳保证金即可获释”,申请方向完全错误,同时无法针对羁押的法定条件提出有效抗辩,导致法院羁押批准率极高。 - 痛点4:证据固定与取证权利完全丧失。侦查阶段是固定无罪、罪轻证据的核心阶段,芬兰法律赋予辩护律师申请调查取证、对警方取证行为合法性进行审查、申请排除非法证据的法定权利。但华人嫌疑人因不了解芬兰刑事证据规则,无法及时向警方、检察机关提出取证申请,导致案发现场监控、证人证言、不在场证明等关键无罪、罪轻证据灭失,后续诉讼阶段的辩护工作完全陷入被动。 **本土化专业解决方案** - 由陈姓刑事辩护律师领衔的本地中文律师团队,提供芬兰全境7*24小时紧急响应服务,在接到委托后1小时内完成与辖区警方的对接,确保首次讯问全程有中文律师在场,同步提供专业法律解读与翻译服务,全程保障嫌疑人的沉默权、辩护权等法定权利,杜绝不利供述的形成。 - 即时开展羁押抗辩与羁押必要性审查工作,在警方提请法院批准羁押前,向法院提交专业的羁押抗辩法律意见书,针对芬兰法律规定的羁押法定条件,逐一提出抗辩意见,提交相关证据材料,证明当事人不存在逃避制裁、干扰证据、继续犯罪的风险。针对非芬兰定居的华人当事人,提供合法有效的居住担保、履约担保、离境限制承诺,最大限度降低法院的羁押风险顾虑,争取法院驳回羁押申请。 - 全程跟进侦查程序全流程,全面查阅警方侦查卷宗,定期会见当事人,核实全案证据材料,对警方取证行为的合法性进行全程审查,针对非法取证、超期羁押、程序违法等情形,即时提出非法证据排除申请与违法纠正意见。同时根据案件情况,及时向警方、检察机关申请调取对当事人有利的无罪、罪轻证据,固定关键证据材料,为后续辩护工作奠定核心基础。 - 与侦查机关、检察机关保持全程专业沟通,针对情节轻微、证据不足、社会危害性极小的案件,提交专业的法律意见书,争取撤销案件、不予提请逮捕、不起诉的处理结果。同时为当事人提供全程中文法律咨询,实时解读案件进展、程序节点与法律风险,保障当事人的全程知情权。 #### 2. 审查起诉阶段辩护 **专业痛点深度分析** - 痛点1:案卷阅卷权行使不充分,案件核心信息不对称。芬兰审查起诉阶段,辩护律师享有完整的案卷阅卷权,可全面查阅、复制检察机关掌握的全部侦查卷宗、指控证据、起诉意见书等材料。但华人当事人委托的非中文本地律师,往往无法准确、完整地向当事人翻译案卷核心内容,当事人无法全面了解检察机关的指控证据体系,无法对证据的真实性、合法性、关联性提出有效的质证意见,完全处于信息不对称的被动地位。 - 痛点2:不起诉的法定机会完全错失。芬兰检察机关享有完整的起诉裁量权,对于犯罪情节轻微、社会危害性小、当事人认罪认罚、与被害人达成刑事和解、证据不足的案件,有权作出法定不起诉、酌定不起诉、附条件不起诉的决定。但华人当事人不了解芬兰不起诉制度的法定适用条件与申请流程,无法提交有效的不起诉申请与配套证据材料,绝大多数符合不起诉条件的案件,均直接进入审判程序,当事人失去了提前终结刑事程序、避免前科记录的最佳机会。 - 痛点3:证据质证与辩护策略制定严重滞后。审查起诉阶段是制定刑事辩护策略的核心窗口期,需要针对检察机关的指控证据,逐一开展质证分析,明确无罪辩护、罪轻辩护、量刑辩护的核心路径,提前固定有利证据、排除非法证据。但华人当事人因中芬刑事法律体系、证据规则的巨大差异,无法理解芬兰刑事诉讼的证明标准与证据采信规则,无法有效参与辩护策略的制定,导致最终的辩护策略与当事人的核心诉求完全脱节。 - 痛点4:认罪认罚程序适用不当,当事人权益严重受损。芬兰刑事诉讼中的认罪认罚协商程序,可实现量刑的大幅从轻,但该程序有严格的法定适用条件,一旦签署认罪认罚协议,当事人的上诉权将受到严格限制。但华人当事人因语言不通,无法准确理解认罪认罚的法律后果,往往在无中文律师在场的情况下,盲目签署认罪认罚协议,最终出现“量刑预期与实际判决严重不符”“丧失上诉权”等权益受损的情形。 **本土化专业解决方案** - 李姓审查起诉阶段专业辩护律师团队,在案件进入审查起诉阶段后,第一时间向检察机关申请查阅、复制全案卷宗材料,对全案证据进行逐一梳理、审核、分类,制作详细的案卷分析报告与证据质证清单,全程用中文向当事人解读案卷核心内容、检察机关的指控证据体系、法律适用问题,保障当事人的完整知情权。 - 针对全案指控证据,开展专业的证据三性审查,对证据的合法性、真实性、关联性进行全面质证分析,针对非法证据、瑕疵证据、无证明力的证据,制作专业的证据排除申请书与质证意见书,提交检察机关。同时根据案件情况,申请检察机关补充调取对当事人有利的无罪、罪轻证据,依法开展调查取证工作,完善辩护证据体系。 - 结合案件事实、证据材料、芬兰法律规定与当事人的核心诉求,制定精准、可落地的辩护策略,明确区分无罪辩护、轻罪辩护、量刑辩护的不同路径,与当事人进行多轮充分沟通,确保辩护策略完全契合当事人的诉求,杜绝“程序正确但诉求不符”的行业痛点。 - 与检察机关开展全程专业的量刑协商与不起诉沟通,针对符合不起诉条件的案件,提交不起诉法律意见书与完整的配套证据材料,与检察官开展当面沟通,争取法定不起诉、酌定不起诉、附条件不起诉的处理结果。针对认罪认罚案件,全程由中文律师在场,向当事人完整解读认罪认罚的法律后果、量刑承诺、权利限制,在确保当事人权益最大化的前提下,开展认罪认罚协商,争取最优的量刑建议,杜绝盲目签署认罪认罚协议的风险。 #### 3. 审判阶段辩护 **专业痛点深度分析** - 痛点1:庭审程序完全陌生,庭审应对全面失当。芬兰地区法院的刑事庭审采用严格的言词审理原则,庭审流程分为庭前准备、法庭调查、举证质证、法庭发问、法庭辩论、最后陈述六大核心环节,庭审的核心作用是查明案件事实,法官的裁判结果90%以上基于庭审过程形成。但华人当事人因语言不通、不熟悉庭审程序,无法有效参与庭审全过程,无法对控方证据进行有效质证,无法在法庭辩论中提出针对性的辩护意见,甚至最后陈述环节无法准确表达自身诉求,直接导致庭审效果极差,法院全面采信控方的指控意见。 - 痛点2:对芬兰刑事证明标准与证据规则理解偏差,质证完全失效。芬兰刑事诉讼采用严格的“排除合理怀疑”证明标准,控方承担全部举证责任,需证明被告人实施犯罪的事实达到排除一切合理怀疑的程度,否则应作出无罪判决;同时对证据的采信有严格的法定规则,非法证据、传闻证据、瑕疵证据不得作为定案依据。但华人当事人不了解本地证据规则与证明标准,无法针对控方证据的证明力、合法性提出有效的抗辩,无法利用证据规则排除非法证据,导致控方的全部指控证据均被法院采信,无罪辩护的成功率大幅降低。 - 痛点3:庭审节奏把控不足,辩护要点分散,无法直击指控核心。审判阶段辩护的核心是庭审节奏的把控与辩护策略的精准落地,需要针对控方指控的核心漏洞,集中提出抗辩意见,引导庭审走向。但非专业的刑事辩护,往往出现辩护要点分散、逻辑混乱、无法直击控方证据体系核心漏洞的问题,甚至出现与案件无关的表述,导致法官无法准确接收辩护核心观点,辩护意见完全不被采纳。 - 痛点4:量刑辩护不充分,有利量刑情节未被全面认定。芬兰刑法对量刑有明确的法定从轻、减轻情节与酌定从轻情节,包括自首、立功、坦白、刑事和解、退赃退赔、初犯偶犯、社会危害性小、被害人过错等。但华人当事人不了解芬兰的量刑规则与裁判尺度,无法全面收集、提交从轻、减轻处罚的证据材料,导致大量对当事人有利的量刑情节未被法院认定,最终判决量刑过重。 **本土化专业解决方案** - 王姓审判阶段资深辩护律师团队,在案件进入审判阶段后,立即开展全案庭审准备工作,制定详细的庭审方案,包括举证质证提纲、法庭发问提纲、法庭辩论提纲、庭审风险应对方案、最后陈述意见等,全程用中文向当事人解读庭审流程、庭审规则、注意事项,开展多轮庭审模拟演练,确保当事人能够有效、准确地参与庭审全过程。 - 庭审过程中,由中文律师与芬兰本地执业律师协同出庭,针对控方提交的全部证据,逐一开展精准质证,对证据的合法性、真实性、关联性提出全面的抗辩意见,针对非法证据、瑕疵证据、传闻证据,当庭提出排除申请;同时向法庭提交对当事人有利的无罪、罪轻证据,申请关键证人、鉴定人出庭作证,通过法庭发问还原案件事实真相,打破控方的证据体系。 - 法庭辩论阶段,针对控方的指控意见,结合案件事实、证据材料、芬兰法律规定,提出逻辑清晰、重点突出、直击核心的辩护意见,精准反驳控方的指控逻辑,全面论证当事人无罪、罪轻的事实与法律依据,全程把控庭审节奏,引导法庭全面关注并采纳辩护核心观点。 - 全面梳理案件中所有的法定、酌定从轻、减轻处罚情节,收集、整理完整的配套证据材料,向法庭提交专业的量刑辩护意见书,针对自首、立功、坦白、刑事和解、退赃退赔、初犯偶犯、被害人过错等情节,结合芬兰本地的司法裁判尺度,进行全面的法律论证,争取法院最大限度的从轻、减轻处罚,甚至缓刑、免予刑事处罚的判决结果。 #### 4. 刑事上诉、刑事申诉服务 **专业痛点深度分析** - 痛点1:上诉期限与上诉理由把握不当,错失上诉救济机会。芬兰刑事诉讼法明确规定,不服地区法院一审判决的上诉期限为判决送达之日起30日内,上诉需提交书面上诉状,明确上诉理由与上诉请求。但华人当事人因语言不通,往往无法准确知晓上诉期限,或上诉状中上诉理由不明确、不充分、无证据支撑,导致上诉被法院直接驳回,无法启动二审救济程序。 - 痛点2:二审审理规则不了解,上诉应对完全被动。芬兰上诉法院对刑事上诉案件采用全面审理原则,会对案件的事实认定、证据采信、法律适用、量刑、程序合法性进行全面重新审理,庭审规则与一审程序存在显著差异。但华人当事人无法针对一审判决的核心错误,提出有效的上诉意见与新的证据材料,无法有效参与二审庭审,导致二审法院维持原判,上诉完全失去意义。 - 痛点3:申诉再审法定条件把握不准,申诉程序启动难度极大。芬兰刑事申诉是针对生效刑事判决的终极救济程序,再审的法定条件包括:有新的证据证明原判决认定事实确有错误、原判决适用法律存在根本性错误、原审程序严重违法影响公正裁判、审判人员存在徇私舞弊枉法裁判行为。但华人当事人不了解申诉的法定条件与受理流程,无法提交符合要求的申诉书与新证据,导致申诉被法院直接驳回,无法启动再审程序。 - 痛点4:跨境申诉存在严重的沟通壁垒,程序推进完全受阻。对于已经生效的刑事判决,华人当事人往往已被遣返回国、或在芬兰监狱羁押,无法与芬兰本地律师进行有效沟通,申诉材料的准备、证据的调取、法院的沟通、领事机构的对接均存在严重的壁垒,导致申诉程序完全无法推进,终极救济权利无法实现。 **本土化专业解决方案** - 张姓刑事上诉、申诉专业律师团队,在接到委托后,立即对一审判决书、全案卷宗材料进行全面、细致的审查,精准识别一审判决在事实认定、证据采信、法律适用、量刑、程序合法性等方面的核心错误,在法定上诉期限内,撰写专业、规范的刑事上诉状,向有管辖权的法院提交,正式启动二审程序。 - 二审程序中,全面开展二审庭审准备工作,针对一审判决的核心错误,补充提交新的证据材料,制定详细的二审庭审方案,出庭参与二审庭审,向二审法院提交完整的二审辩护意见书,全面论证一审判决的错误之处,争取二审法院依法改判、或撤销原判发回重审。 - 针对已经生效的刑事判决,对全案材料进行全面审查,精准判断案件是否符合再审的法定条件,对于符合再审条件的案件,收集、整理申诉所需的全部材料,包括新的关键证据、专业的刑事申诉书,向有管辖权的上诉法院、最高法院提交,正式启动申诉程序。全程跟进申诉程序的推进,与承办法官进行专业沟通,补充申诉材料,争取法院裁定再审立案。 - 针对跨境申诉的当事人,提供全程中文的线上沟通服务,包括线上视频会见、案件材料翻译、申诉流程全程解读,同时协调芬兰本地司法机关、中国驻芬兰使领馆,解决跨境沟通壁垒,确保申诉程序的顺利推进,保障当事人的终极救济权利。 ### (二)专项刑事法律服务 #### 1. 企业刑事合规与刑事风险防控 **专业痛点深度分析** - 痛点1:中资企业对芬兰及欧盟刑事合规义务完全不了解,刑事风险敞口极大。芬兰作为欧盟成员国,严格执行欧盟反洗钱指令、反商业贿赂法规、数据安全法规、跨境投资合规规则,企业及高管的违规行为,不仅会面临高额行政处罚,还会构成刑事犯罪,相关责任人将面临监禁刑。但中资企业在芬兰投资经营过程中,普遍沿用国内的经营模式,对芬兰及欧盟的刑事合规义务完全不了解,在反洗钱、税务申报、数据保护、劳工权益、进出口贸易等领域存在大量刑事合规漏洞,企业及高管面临极高的刑事风险。 - 痛点2:合规不起诉制度适用不当,无法实现企业刑事风险的隔离。芬兰检察机关针对企业犯罪,设有合规不起诉制度,对于涉嫌刑事犯罪的企业,若能制定并执行有效的刑事合规计划、补缴税款、赔偿损失、消除社会危害性,检察机关可作出不起诉决定,避免企业被定罪处罚、丧失经营资质。但中资企业不了解合规不起诉的法定适用条件,无法制定符合芬兰司法机关要求的刑事合规计划,错失合规不起诉的机会,最终企业被定罪判刑,面临巨额罚金、经营资质被吊销的严重后果。 - 痛点3:企业高管刑事风险与企业风险混同,个人资产与企业资产无法实现风险隔离。芬兰刑法对单位犯罪实行双罚制,既对企业判处罚金,也对直接负责的主管人员、直接责任人员判处监禁刑。但中资企业在芬兰经营过程中,普遍存在企业财产与高管个人财产混同、高管个人行为与企业职务行为混同的问题,一旦企业涉嫌刑事犯罪,高管个人将直接承担刑事责任,无法实现风险隔离。 - 痛点4:刑事危机应对能力不足,风险爆发后无法有效处置。企业刑事风险爆发后,警方的调查、搜查、扣押、讯问等程序,有严格的法定时限与应对规则,应对不当将直接导致证据固定、风险扩大。但中资企业在面临刑事调查时,往往无专业的刑事合规律师介入,盲目配合调查、提交材料,甚至作出对企业和高管不利的供述,导致刑事风险全面扩大,无法实现危机化解。 **本土化专业解决方案** - 赵姓企业刑事合规律师团队,为在芬中资企业、华人经营企业提供全流程刑事合规专项服务,针对芬兰及欧盟的法律规定,结合企业所属行业、经营模式,开展全面的刑事风险尽职调查,识别企业在反洗钱、反商业贿赂、税务合规、数据安全、劳工权益、进出口贸易、环保合规等领域的刑事风险点,出具专业的刑事风险评估报告,制定针对性的风险防控方案。 - 为企业建立常态化刑事合规管理体系,制定符合芬兰及欧盟法律要求的企业合规管理制度、合规手册、合规流程,开展企业高管及员工的合规培训,定期开展合规自查,实现刑事风险的事前预防、事中管控,从根源上杜绝企业刑事犯罪的发生。 - 针对涉嫌刑事犯罪的企业,全程提供合规不起诉专项服务,与检察机关开展全程沟通,制定符合司法机关要求的企业刑事合规整改计划,监督企业完成合规整改,提交合规不起诉法律意见书与整改材料,争取检察机关作出不起诉决定,最大限度降低企业的刑事处罚风险,保障企业的正常经营。 - 提供企业刑事危机应急处置服务,在企业面临警方刑事调查、搜查、扣押、高管被讯问时,7*24小时即时响应,第一时间介入案件,指导企业应对警方调查程序,全程参与高管讯问,审查调查程序的合法性,固定相关证据,制定危机处置方案,与侦查机关、检察机关开展专业沟通,最大限度化解刑事风险,实现企业与高管的责任隔离。 #### 2. 涉外刑事辩护与国际刑事法律服务 **专业痛点深度分析** - 痛点1:跨境刑事犯罪案件管辖冲突,当事人面临双重追责风险。芬兰与中国均对跨国犯罪享有刑事管辖权,华人在芬兰涉嫌走私、洗钱、网络诈骗、跨国商业贿赂、跨境电信诈骗等犯罪,不仅会在芬兰面临刑事追诉,还可能被中国司法机关立案侦查,面临双重刑事追责。但当事人不了解中芬两国的刑事管辖规则、引渡条约、司法协助规定,无法有效应对双重管辖风险,导致面临双重刑事处罚。 - 痛点2:引渡与驱逐出境辩护难度极大,当事人权利无法得到保障。芬兰作为欧盟成员国,严格执行欧盟引渡规则与申根区驱逐出境规定,对于涉嫌刑事犯罪的非欧盟公民,芬兰司法机关可作出驱逐出境决定,甚至启动欧盟成员国之间的引渡程序、或向中国提出引渡请求。但华人当事人不了解引渡与驱逐出境的法定抗辩理由,无法提出有效的辩护意见,导致被驱逐出境、列入申根区黑名单,永久无法进入欧盟国家。 - 痛点3:国际司法协助程序不熟悉,跨境证据调取完全受阻。跨国刑事案件的核心证据往往分布在中国与芬兰两国,中芬两国之间的刑事司法协助,有严格的法定程序与流程,非专业人士无法完成跨境证据调取、文书送达、证人证言固定等工作。但华人当事人无法协调中芬两国的司法机关,无法完成跨境证据调取,导致关键无罪、罪轻证据无法提交法庭,辩护工作完全陷入被动。 - 痛点4:国际刑事法院案件、跨国人权案件辩护专业性要求极高,普通律师无法胜任。涉及国际刑事法院管辖的战争罪、危害人类罪、种族灭绝罪案件,以及欧盟人权法院管辖的跨国人权案件,适用国际法与欧盟法律规则,辩护工作需要律师具备国际法、国际刑法、欧盟法的专业知识与实务经验,普通本地律师完全无法胜任,导致当事人的合法权益无法得到有效保障。 **本土化专业解决方案** - 孙姓涉外刑事辩护律师团队,具备中芬双法域执业经验、国际刑法与欧盟法专业背景,为华人当事人提供全流程涉外刑事辩护服务,针对跨境刑事犯罪案件的双重管辖问题,制定针对性的辩护方案,协调中芬两国司法机关,最大限度避免当事人面临双重刑事追责,保障当事人的合法权益。 - 针对引渡与驱逐出境案件,全面审查芬兰司法机关的引渡、驱逐出境决定的合法性,结合芬兰法律、欧盟法律与国际条约规定,提出专业的抗辩理由,撰写引渡、驱逐出境抗辩法律意见书,出庭参与听证程序,与芬兰移民局、司法机关开展专业沟通,争取撤销引渡、驱逐出境决定,最大限度保障当事人在芬兰及欧盟的居留权利。 -

痛点1:合同起草不规范,存在大量法律漏洞,引发后续纠纷。芬兰《民法典》对合同的成立、生效、履行、违约责任、解除等有明确的法定规定,同时欧盟对国际贸易合同、消费者合同、格式合同有特殊的强制性规定。但华人在芬兰签订各类合同时,往往直接使用国内的合同模板,或使用简单的合同文本,未结合芬兰及欧盟的法律规定进行调整,合同条款存在大量漏洞,甚至部分条款因违反芬兰强制性法律规定而无效,最终引发合同纠纷,导致自身权益受损。 - 痛点2:合同履行过程中风险管控不足,违约应对不当。芬兰法律对合同履行中的抗辩权、保全措施、违约救济方式有明确的法定规则,一方违约后,守约方有法定的减损义务,同时需在法定时限内提出违约索赔,否则将丧失胜诉权。但华人在合同履行过程中,无法及时识别违约风险,未采取有效的证据固定措施,违约发生后应对不当,未及时行使法定权利,导致自身索赔权利无法得到法院支持。 - 痛点3:合同纠纷诉讼程序不熟悉,举证责任承担不当。芬兰合同纠纷诉讼中,遵循“谁主张、谁举证”的基本原则,对合同成立、生效、履行、违约事实的举证,有严格的证据规则,同时诉讼时效为3年,自权利人知道或应当知道权利受损之日起计算。但华人当事人不了解本地诉讼程序与证据规则,无法全面收集、提交有效的证据材料,甚至超过诉讼时效提起诉讼,导致诉讼请求被法院驳回。 **本土化专业解决方案** - 刘姓合同法律师团队,为在芬华人、中资企业提供全流程合同法律服务,包括各类民商事合同、国际贸易合同、商业合同、租赁合同、服务合同等的起草、审核、修订服务,结合芬兰及欧盟的法律规定,制定严谨、规范、无法律漏洞的合同文本,明确双方的权利义务、违约责任、争议解决方式,从根源上规避合同纠纷风险。 - 为合同履行提供全程风险管控服务,及时识别合同履行过程中的违约风险,指导当事人固定相关证据材料,针对对方的违约行为,及时发出律师函,提出违约索赔,行使法定的合同抗辩权、解除权,同时采取诉前保全、财产保全等措施,保障当事人的债权能够顺利实现。 -

痛点2:员工解雇程序违法,被法院判决违法解雇,承担巨额赔偿。芬兰《劳动合同法》对员工解雇有极其严格的规定,雇主解雇员工必须有法定的正当理由,且需履行提前通知、与工会协商、书面告知等法定程序,无正当理由、未履行法定程序的解雇,属于违法解雇,雇主需向员工支付高额的赔偿金,最高可达24个月的工资。但华人雇主不了解芬兰的解雇规则,随意解雇员工,未履行法定程序,最终被劳动法院判决违法解雇,承担巨额的赔偿责任。 - 痛点3:华人员工劳动权益受损,无法有效维权。在芬工作的华人员工,往往面临雇主拖欠工资、不支付加班费、不安排法定年假、违法解雇、不缴纳社保、工作环境不符合安全标准等问题,劳动权益受到严重损害。但华人员工因语言不通、不了解芬兰劳动法律规定、维权程序不熟悉,无法有效向劳动监察部门投诉、向劳动法院提起诉讼,自身合法权益无法得到保障。 **本土化专业解决方案** - 杨姓劳动法律师团队,为在芬华人雇主、中资企业提供全流程劳动用工合规服务,结合芬兰劳动法律法规与行业集体劳动协议,起草、审核、修订劳动合同、员工手册、规章制度、保密协议、竞业限制协议等法律文件,确保用工管理完全符合芬兰法律规定,从根源上规避劳动用工法律风险。 -

痛点2:子女抚养权、抚养费纠纷,跨境探视权无法实现。芬兰法律对子女抚养权的归属,以“子女最佳利益”为核心原则,与中国的抚养权裁判规则存在差异,同时跨国离婚案件中,子女往往随一方在中国或芬兰生活,另一方的探视权无法得到有效保障,抚养费的跨境执行也存在极大的困难。但华人当事人不了解芬兰的亲子关系法律规定,无法有效主张抚养权、探视权,相关权益无法得到法院支持。 - 痛点3:跨境继承纠纷频发,遗产继承权利无法实现。芬兰《继承法》对法定继承、遗嘱继承、遗产范围、继承顺序、特留份制度有明确的法定规定,与中国的继承制度存在显著差异,华人在芬兰的房产、存款、股权、车辆等遗产,往往因未订立合法有效的遗嘱,导致继承纠纷频发,同时跨境遗产继承涉及中芬两国的法律适用、司法协助、遗产执行等问题,非专业人士无法完成,当事人的继承权利无法实现。 **本土化专业解决方案** -

痛点1:对芬兰最新移民政策不了解,申请方向错误,直接被拒签。2025年1月8日,芬兰《外国人法》最新修正案正式生效,永久居留许可的申请条件发生重大调整:标准申请路径的连续居住时间由4年延长至6年,需具备芬兰语或瑞典语B1水平,且至少有2年的合法就业经历;仅符合年收入不低于4万欧元、持有芬兰硕士学位并有2年工作经验、芬兰语/瑞典语达到C1水平并有3年工作经历这三类条件的申请人,才可适用4年快速通道。但大量华人申请人不了解最新的政策调整,仍按照旧政策准备申请材料,申请方向完全错误,直接被芬兰移民局(Migri)拒签。 - 痛点2:申请材料不规范、不完整,无法满足移民局的审核要求,申请被驳回。芬兰移民局对工作居留许可、家庭团聚居留许可、自雇居留许可、欧盟蓝卡、永久居留许可、入籍申请的材料,有极其严格的审核标准,包括收入证明、纳税记录、雇佣合同、语言成绩、居住记录、无犯罪记录证明等,材料的真实性、完整性、规范性直接决定申请的成败。但华人申请人不了解材料审核标准,提交的材料不完整、不规范,甚至存在虚假材料,导致申请被移民局直接驳回,甚至被列入黑名单,永久无法申请芬兰居留许可。 - 痛点3:居留许可续签、永居申请、入籍申请的居住时间、纳税记录不达标,申请被拒。芬兰法律规定,A类连续居留许可的持有人,每年需在芬兰累计居住满183天,才可计入永居申请的连续居住时间;同时纳税记录、社保缴纳记录、收入水平需持续符合移民局的要求,任何中断、不达标都会导致连续居住时间重新计算。但华人申请人往往因回国时间过长、纳税记录中断、收入不达标,导致永居、入籍申请被移民局驳回,多年的居留积累付诸东流。 - 痛点4:签证拒签、居留许可被撤销后,无法有效提起申诉与行政诉讼。芬兰移民局作出拒签、撤销居留许可、拒绝永居申请的决定后,申请人有权在法定时限内提起行政复议,对复议结果不服的,有权向芬兰行政法院提起行政诉讼。但华人申请人不了解申诉与诉讼的法定程序、时限、举证规则,无法提交有效的申诉材料与证据,导致申诉与诉讼被驳回,最终被驱逐出境。 **本土化专业解决方案** - 吴姓移民法律师团队,深耕芬兰移民法律实务多年,实时跟进芬兰移民局最新政策调整,为华人申请人提供全品类移民法律服务,包括工作居留许可、自雇居留许可、家庭团聚居留许可、欧盟蓝卡、学生居留许可、永久居留许可、芬兰国籍申请的全程咨询、方案制定、材料准备、申请提交服务,结合申请人的个人情况,制定最优的移民申请方案,确保申请完全符合芬兰最新的移民政策要求,最大限度提高申请成功率。 -

痛点1:跨境投资合规风险极高,未办理ODI备案与芬兰本地投资备案,面临中芬两国双重处罚。中国企业赴芬兰投资,需在国内办理发改委、商务部的ODI备案与外汇管理部门的外汇登记,同时需在芬兰办理企业设立、投资备案、税务登记等合规手续,芬兰严格执行欧盟反洗钱指令,对跨境投资的资金来源、实际控制人信息有极其严格的审核要求。但大量中资企业未办理国内ODI备案,直接向芬兰汇出投资资金,不仅被国内银行拒绝汇款、外汇管理部门处以高额罚款,还会被芬兰反洗钱机构冻结资金,甚至被芬兰法院处以高额罚金,相关责任人被禁止进入欧盟市场。 - 痛点2:芬兰公司设立与运营不合规,面临行政处罚与刑事风险。芬兰《公司法》对有限责任公司的设立、注册资本、股东权利、董事会职责、财务会计、税务申报有明确的法定规定,同时欧盟对公司的信息披露、反洗钱、数据保护有强制性要求。但中资企业在芬兰设立公司时,往往不了解本地的设立要求与运营合规义务,公司设立程序不规范,运营过程中未按规定进行财务审计、税务申报、信息披露,面临芬兰税务机关、市场监管部门的高额行政处罚,甚至构成刑事犯罪。 - 痛点3:国际贸易合同不规范,海关合规风险高,面临货物被扣、高额罚款。芬兰作为欧盟成员国,执行欧盟统一的海关监管制度、关税政策、进出口贸易规则,对进出口货物的归类、原产地、关税申报、检验检疫有严格的法定要求,同时欧盟对制裁商品、两用物项、知识产权保护有强制性规定。但华人外贸企业在与芬兰企业开展国际贸易时,合同条款不规范,对货物质量、付款方式、违约责任、争议解决方式约定不明,同时海关申报不合规,出现低报关税、税号归类错误、原产地申报不实等问题,导致货物被芬兰海关扣押,面临高额的罚款,甚至被追究刑事责任。 **本土化专业解决方案** -

Finland has become one of the core destinations for Chinese citizens to work, live and invest in the Nordic region. However, Finland and China belong to different legal systems, and issues such as language barriers, differences in judicial procedures, information gaps in cross-border legal services, and insufficient coverage of local service networks have become core obstacles for the Chinese community to safeguard their legitimate rights and interests in Finland. This report relies on a localized legal service network covering the entire territory of Finland. We have exclusive office service points in every municipality in Finland, equipped with Chinese practicing lawyers who are proficient in Chinese, familiar with the Finnish and EU legal systems, and have local judicial practice experience, which can realize seamless coverage and immediate response to legal services across Finland. Based on the current effective legal norms, judicial adjudication rules in Finland and the high-frequency legal needs of the Chinese community in Finland, this report deeply dissects the core pain points of the whole category of legal services including criminal, civil and commercial, cross-border investment, immigration, labor, corporate compliance, etc., and provides practical professional solutions combined with local judicial practice, so as to provide comprehensive, accurate and professional legal service guidance for overseas Chinese and Chinese-funded enterprises in Finland. ## I.

Full-process Criminal Legal Service System: In-depth Pain Point Analysis and Professional Solutions Finland belongs to the Nordic branch of the civil law system. As a member state of the European Union, EU legal norms are directly applicable and have priority over Finnish domestic legislation. Its criminal procedure is regulated by the Criminal Procedure Act, the Pre-trial Investigation Act and the Coercive Measures Act. There are 27 district courts, 6 courts of appeal and a Supreme Court in the country. The criminal justice adheres to the core principle of "rehabilitation first, punishment second", and has strict statutory restrictions on the protection of the rights of criminal suspects, the application of detention, and evidence rules. When the Chinese community is involved in criminal disputes in Finland, the core pain points are concentrated in the lack of procedural right to know caused by language barriers, fundamental misunderstanding of the Finnish criminal justice system, obstacles to cross-border evidence collection and judicial communication, and the detention risk of non-local residents is much higher than that of local citizens. This chapter dissects the pain points one by one and provides localized solutions for the subdivided areas of the whole process of criminal legal services. ### (I) Core Services of the Whole Process of Criminal Defense #### 1. Legal Assistance in the Investigation Stage **In-depth Professional Pain Point Analysis** - Pain Point 1: Complete lack of procedural right to know, and damage to rights in the first interrogation. The Finnish Pre-trial Investigation Act clearly stipulates that before the first interrogation, a criminal suspect has the right to be fully informed of the suspected crime, the right to remain silent, and the right to hire a lawyer, and the lawyer has the right to be present throughout the first interrogation. However, due to language barriers, Chinese suspects are unable to accurately understand the statutory rights informed by the police in most cases, and even complete the first interrogation without a lawyer present and without professional translation, making statements unfavorable to themselves. In Finnish criminal judicial practice, the record of the first interrogation is the core evidence for the court to determine the facts of the case. Once an unfavorable statement is formed, it is extremely difficult to overturn it in the subsequent litigation stage. - Pain Point 2: Serious delay in the golden time for lawyer intervention. Finnish law clearly stipulates that during the detention or custody of a suspect, a defense lawyer must be appointed for him at his request; for a crime that may be punishable by imprisonment for more than 4 months, the suspect has the unconditional right to meet with a lawyer from the date he is taken into custody by the police. However, because Chinese suspects cannot contact local practicing lawyers proficient in Chinese, they often cannot obtain any professional legal assistance during the critical window period of 24-72 hours after being detained, missing the golden opportunity for lawyer intervention. Even in the whole process of the police submitting a custody application and the court making a custody decision, there is no professional lawyer to plead for them. - Pain Point 3: Fundamental misunderstanding of the Finnish custody system, resulting in complete invalidation of custody defense. Finland does not have a bail system in the common law system, and is essentially different from the bail system in China. The core of its alternative measures to custody is the non-custodial order made by the court based on statutory conditions, rather than property guarantee. The Finnish Coercive Measures Act clearly stipulates that the statutory applicable circumstances of custody are only three categories: the suspect is at risk of evading criminal sanctions, at risk of tampering with evidence/interfering with witness testimony, and at risk of continuing to commit crimes; preventive custody is only applicable to crimes that may be punishable by imprisonment for more than 2 years, and the suspect refuses to state his true identity, is not settled in Finland, and may leave the country at any time to evade sanctions. However, Chinese suspects generally mistakenly believe that "paying a deposit can be released", the application direction is completely wrong, and at the same time, they cannot put forward effective defenses against the statutory conditions of custody, resulting in a very high approval rate of custody by the court. - Pain Point 4: Complete loss of the right to evidence fixation and collection. The investigation stage is the core stage for fixing evidence of innocence and mitigated punishment. Finnish law gives defense lawyers the statutory right to apply for investigation and evidence collection, review the legality of the police's evidence collection behavior, and apply for the exclusion of illegal evidence. However, because Chinese suspects do not understand the Finnish criminal evidence rules, they cannot timely submit evidence collection applications to the police and procuratorate, resulting in the loss of key evidence of innocence and mitigated punishment such as surveillance video of the crime scene, witness testimony, alibi, etc., and the defense work in the subsequent litigation stage is completely passive. **Localized Professional Solutions** - The local Chinese lawyer team led by Criminal Defense Lawyer Chen provides 7/24 emergency response services across Finland. After receiving the entrustment, it will complete the docking with the local police within 1 hour, ensure that the Chinese lawyer is present throughout the first interrogation, and simultaneously provide professional legal interpretation and translation services, to protect the suspect's statutory rights such as the right to remain silent and the right to defense throughout the process, and eliminate the formation of unfavorable statements. - Immediately carry out custody defense and custody necessity review work. Before the police submit the custody approval application to the court, submit a professional legal opinion on custody defense to the court, put forward defense opinions one by one against the statutory conditions of custody stipulated by Finnish law, submit relevant evidentiary materials, and prove that the party does not have the risk of evading sanctions, interfering with evidence, or continuing to commit crimes. For Chinese parties not settled in Finland, provide legally valid residence guarantee, performance guarantee, and departure restriction commitment, to minimize the court's concerns about custody risks, and strive for the court to reject the custody application. - Follow up the whole process of the investigation procedure, fully consult the police investigation files, meet with the party regularly, verify the evidence materials of the whole case, and conduct a full review of the legality of the police's evidence collection behavior. For illegal evidence collection, extended detention, procedural violations, etc., immediately submit an application for exclusion of illegal evidence and an opinion on correction of violations. At the same time, according to the situation of the case, timely apply to the police and procuratorate to collect evidence favorable to the party's innocence and mitigated punishment, fix key evidence materials, and lay a core foundation for the subsequent defense work. - Maintain full professional communication with the investigation authority and the procuratorate, submit professional legal opinions for cases with minor circumstances, insufficient evidence, and minimal social harm, and strive for the results of case withdrawal, non-submission of arrest application, and non-prosecution. At the same time, provide the party with full Chinese legal consultation, interpret the case progress, procedural nodes and legal risks in real time, and ensure the party's full right to know. #### 2. Defense in the Examination and Prosecution Stage **In-depth Professional Pain Point Analysis** - Pain Point 1: Insufficient exercise of the right to inspect case files, resulting in serious asymmetry of core case information. In the examination and prosecution stage in Finland, the defense lawyer has the complete right to inspect the case files, and can fully consult and copy all the investigation files, accusation evidence, prosecution opinion and other materials held by the procuratorate. However, non-Chinese local lawyers entrusted by Chinese parties are often unable to accurately and completely translate the core content of the case files to the parties. The parties cannot fully understand the accusation evidence system of the procuratorate, and cannot put forward effective cross-examination opinions on the authenticity, legality and relevance of the evidence, and are completely in a passive position of information asymmetry. - Pain Point 2: Complete loss of the statutory opportunity for non-prosecution. The Finnish procuratorate has complete prosecutorial discretion. For cases where the crime is minor, the social harm is small, the suspect pleads guilty and accepts punishment, reaches a criminal settlement with the victim, and the evidence is insufficient, it has the right to make a decision of statutory non-prosecution, discretionary non-prosecution, and conditional non-prosecution. However, Chinese parties do not understand the statutory applicable conditions and application procedures of the Finnish non-prosecution system, and cannot submit effective non-prosecution applications and supporting evidentiary materials. Most cases that meet the non-prosecution conditions directly enter the trial procedure, and the parties lose the best opportunity to terminate the criminal procedure in advance and avoid criminal record. - Pain Point 3: Serious delay in evidence cross-examination and defense strategy formulation. The examination and prosecution stage is the core window period for formulating criminal defense strategies. It is necessary to carry out cross-examination analysis one by one for the accusation evidence of the procuratorate, clarify the core path of innocence defense, mitigated crime defense, and sentencing defense, fix favorable evidence and exclude illegal evidence in advance. However, due to the huge differences between the Chinese and Finnish criminal legal systems and evidence rules, Chinese parties cannot understand the proof standard and evidence admission rules of Finnish criminal proceedings, and cannot effectively participate in the formulation of defense strategies, resulting in the final defense strategy being completely divorced from the core demands of the parties. - Pain Point 4: Improper application of the guilty plea and punishment procedure, resulting in serious damage to the rights and interests of the parties. The guilty plea and punishment negotiation procedure in Finnish criminal proceedings can achieve a significant mitigation of sentencing, but the procedure has strict statutory applicable conditions. Once the guilty plea agreement is signed, the appellant's right of appeal will be strictly limited. However, due to language barriers, Chinese parties cannot accurately understand the legal consequences of pleading guilty and accepting punishment, and often blindly sign the guilty plea agreement without a Chinese lawyer present, eventually resulting in situations such as "serious inconsistency between sentencing expectations and actual judgments" and "loss of the right to appeal", which damage the rights and interests of the parties. **Localized Professional Solutions** - The professional defense lawyer team for the examination and prosecution stage led by Lawyer Li, after the case enters the examination and prosecution stage, applies to the procuratorate to consult and copy the full case file materials at the first time, sorts out, reviews and classifies all the evidence of the case one by one, produces a detailed case analysis report and evidence cross-examination list, interprets the core content of the case file, the accusation evidence system of the procuratorate, and the legal application issues to the party in Chinese throughout the process, to ensure the party's complete right to know. - For all the accusation evidence of the case, carry out professional review of the three attributes of evidence, conduct a comprehensive cross-examination analysis of the legality, authenticity and relevance of the evidence, and produce a professional application for exclusion of evidence and cross-examination opinion for illegal evidence, defective evidence, and evidence without probative force, and submit them to the procuratorate. At the same time, according to the situation of the case, apply to the procuratorate to supplement and collect evidence favorable to the party's innocence and mitigated punishment, carry out investigation and evidence collection in accordance with the law, and improve the defense evidence system. - Combined with the case facts, evidence materials, Finnish legal provisions and the core demands of the party, formulate an accurate and implementable defense strategy, clearly distinguish the different paths of innocence defense, mitigated crime defense, and sentencing defense, conduct multiple rounds of full communication with the party, ensure that the defense strategy fully meets the demands of the party, and eliminate the industry pain point of "correct procedure but inconsistent demands". - Carry out full professional sentencing negotiation and non-prosecution communication with the procuratorate, submit a legal opinion on non-prosecution and complete supporting evidence materials for cases that meet the non-prosecution conditions, conduct face-to-face communication with the prosecutor, and strive for the results of statutory non-prosecution, discretionary non-prosecution, and conditional non-prosecution. For cases of guilty plea and punishment, a Chinese lawyer is present throughout the process, fully interprets the legal consequences, sentencing commitments, and right restrictions of the guilty plea to the party, carries out guilty plea and punishment negotiation on the premise of ensuring the maximization of the party's rights and interests, strives for the optimal sentencing recommendation, and eliminates the risk of blindly signing the guilty plea agreement. #### 3. Defense in the Trial Stage **In-depth Professional Pain Point Analysis** - Pain Point 1: Complete unfamiliarity with the trial procedure, resulting in total inappropriate response in the trial. The criminal trial of the Finnish district court adopts the strict principle of oral trial. The trial process is divided into six core links: pre-trial preparation, court investigation, evidence production and cross-examination, court interrogation, court debate, and final statement. The core function of the trial is to find out the facts of the case, and more than 90% of the judge's judgment results are formed based on the trial process. However, due to language barriers and unfamiliarity with the trial procedure, Chinese parties cannot effectively participate in the whole trial process, cannot effectively cross-examine the prosecution's evidence, cannot put forward targeted defense opinions in the court debate, and even cannot accurately express their demands in the final statement link, which directly leads to extremely poor trial results, and the court fully accepts the prosecution's accusation opinions. - Pain Point 2: Deviation in understanding of Finnish criminal proof standards and evidence rules, resulting in complete invalidation of cross-examination. Finnish criminal proceedings adopt the strict proof standard of "beyond reasonable doubt". The prosecution bears the full burden of proof, and needs to prove that the defendant committed the crime beyond all reasonable doubt, otherwise an innocent judgment should be made; at the same time, there are strict statutory rules for the admission of evidence, and illegal evidence, hearsay evidence, and defective evidence cannot be used as the basis for a verdict. However, Chinese parties do not understand the local evidence rules and proof standards, cannot put forward effective defenses against the probative force and legality of the prosecution's evidence, cannot use the evidence rules to exclude illegal evidence, resulting in all the prosecution's accusation evidence being accepted by the court, and the success rate of innocence defense is greatly reduced. - Pain Point 3: Insufficient control of the trial rhythm, scattered defense points, and inability to hit the core of the accusation. The core of defense in the trial stage is the control of the trial rhythm and the accurate implementation of the defense strategy. It is necessary to focus on the defense opinions against the core loopholes of the prosecution's accusation and guide the trial trend. However, non-professional criminal defense often has the problems of scattered defense points, chaotic logic, and inability to hit the core loopholes of the prosecution's evidence system, and even makes statements irrelevant to the case, resulting in the judge being unable to accurately receive the core defense views, and the defense opinions not being accepted at all. - Pain Point 4: Insufficient sentencing defense, and failure to fully identify favorable sentencing circumstances. The Finnish Criminal Code has clear statutory mitigating and mitigating circumstances and discretionary mitigating circumstances for sentencing, including voluntary surrender, meritorious service, frank confession, criminal settlement, return of stolen goods and compensation, first offense and occasional offense, minor social harm, victim's fault, etc. However, Chinese parties do not understand the Finnish sentencing rules and judicial standards, and cannot fully collect and submit evidentiary materials for从轻 and mitigating punishment, resulting in a large number of favorable sentencing circumstances for the parties not being recognized by the court, and the final judgment is too heavy. **Localized Professional Solutions** - The senior defense lawyer team for the trial stage led by Lawyer Wang, after the case enters the trial stage, immediately carries out the pre-trial preparation work for the whole case, formulates a detailed trial plan, including evidence production and cross-examination outline, court interrogation outline, court debate outline, trial risk response plan, final statement opinion, etc., interprets the trial process, trial rules, and precautions to the party in Chinese throughout the process, carries out multiple rounds of trial simulation exercises, to ensure that the party can effectively and accurately participate in the whole trial process. - During the trial, the Chinese lawyer and the Finnish local practicing lawyer appear in court together, conduct accurate cross-examination one by one for all the evidence submitted by the prosecution, put forward comprehensive defense opinions on the legality, authenticity and relevance of the evidence, and submit an application for exclusion in court for illegal evidence, defective evidence, and hearsay evidence; at the same time, submit evidence of innocence and mitigated punishment favorable to the party to the court, apply for key witnesses and appraisers to testify in court, restore the truth of the case through court interrogation, and break the prosecution's evidence system. - In the court debate stage, in response to the prosecution's accusation opinions, combined with the case facts, evidence materials, and Finnish legal provisions, put forward a logically clear, focused, and core-hitting defense opinion, accurately refute the prosecution's accusation logic, fully demonstrate the facts and legal basis for the party's innocence and mitigated punishment, control the trial rhythm throughout the process, and guide the court to fully pay attention to and adopt the core defense views. - Comprehensively sort out all statutory and discretionary mitigating and mitigating circumstances in the case, collect and sort out complete supporting evidence materials, submit a professional sentencing defense opinion to the court, conduct a comprehensive legal argument combined with the local judicial judgment standards in Finland for the circumstances such as voluntary surrender, meritorious service, frank confession, criminal settlement, return of stolen goods and compensation, first offense and occasional offense, and victim's fault, to strive for the maximum mitigation and mitigation of punishment by the court, even the judgment of probation and exemption from criminal punishment. #### 4. Criminal Appeal and Criminal Petition Services **In-depth Professional Pain Point Analysis** - Pain Point 1: Improper grasp of the appeal period and appeal reasons, missing the opportunity for appeal relief. The Finnish Criminal Procedure Act clearly stipulates that the appeal period for refusing the first instance judgment of the district court is 30 days from the date of service of the judgment. The appeal needs to submit a written appeal statement, clearly stating the appeal reasons and appeal requests. However, due to language barriers, Chinese parties are often unable to accurately know the appeal period, or the appeal reasons in the appeal statement are unclear, insufficient, and unsupported by evidence, resulting in the appeal being directly rejected by the court, and unable to start the second instance relief procedure. - Pain Point 2: Unfamiliarity with the second instance trial rules, resulting in a completely passive response to the appeal. The Finnish Court of Appeal adopts the principle of full trial for criminal appeal cases, and will conduct a comprehensive retrial of the fact finding, evidence admission, law application, sentencing, and procedural legality of the case. The trial rules are significantly different from the first instance procedure. However, Chinese parties cannot put forward effective appeal opinions and new evidence materials in response to the core errors of the first instance judgment, and cannot effectively participate in the second instance trial, resulting in the Court of Appeal upholding the original judgment, and the appeal completely losing its meaning. - Pain Point 3: Inaccurate grasp of the statutory conditions for petition retrial, making it extremely difficult to start the petition procedure. The Finnish criminal petition is the ultimate relief procedure for effective criminal judgments. The statutory conditions for retrial include: new evidence proving that the facts found in the original judgment are indeed wrong, fundamental errors in the application of law in the original judgment, serious procedural violations in the original trial affecting the fair judgment, and judicial personnel engaging in malpractice for personal gain and perverting the law in the trial. However, Chinese parties do not understand the statutory conditions and acceptance procedures of the petition, and cannot submit a qualified petition and new evidence, resulting in the petition being directly rejected by the court, and unable to start the retrial procedure. - Pain Point 4: There are serious communication barriers in cross-border petitions, and the procedure is completely blocked. For effective criminal judgments, Chinese parties are often deported back to China or detained in Finnish prisons, unable to effectively communicate with Finnish local lawyers. The preparation of petition materials, evidence collection, court communication, and consular agency docking have serious barriers, resulting in the petition procedure being completely unable to advance, and the ultimate relief right cannot be realized. **Localized Professional Solutions** - The professional criminal appeal and petition lawyer team led by Lawyer Zhang, after receiving the entrustment, immediately conducts a comprehensive and detailed review of the first instance judgment and the full case file materials, accurately identifies the core errors of the first instance judgment in fact finding, evidence admission, law application, sentencing, and procedural legality, writes a professional and standardized criminal appeal statement within the statutory appeal period, submits it to the competent court, and officially starts the second instance procedure. - In the second instance procedure, comprehensively carry out the second instance trial preparation work, supplement and submit new evidence materials in response to the core errors of the first instance judgment, formulate a detailed second instance trial plan, appear in court to participate in the second instance trial, submit a complete second instance defense opinion to the Court of Appeal, fully demonstrate the errors of the first instance judgment, and strive for the court to amend the judgment according to law, or revoke the original judgment and send it back for retrial. - For effective criminal judgments that have taken effect, conduct a comprehensive review of the whole case materials, accurately judge whether the case meets
