In order to narrow the distance with the lawyers, JAVY has launched a series of "Interviews with JAVY" to let us understand the story behind each lawyer.
Musician, psychologist, and lawyer are all his identities. With multiple occupations and multiple identities, he has become an intersecting lawyer with the characteristics of both industry experts and legal experts, providing clients with professional and efficient legal services with multiple types of legal litigation skills and knowledge in multiple fields. He is the guest of interview in this issue-Attorney Qiao Xiaosi.
Q:Hello, Attorney Joe! Before the interview, we learned that you are a "cross-cutting" lawyer(Compound Attorney). How should people outside the legal profession understand the professional concept of "intersection lawyers"?
Attorney Qiao Xiaosi:
This is a lawyer who comprehensively utilizes multiple types of legal litigation techniques to resolve major disputes for the parties. What it highlights in judicial practice is the multiple cross-applications in law and the effective mastery of cross-border professional and cross-border knowledge.
Q:Before the interview, we learned that your earliest higher education was a music major. During your student years, your work has won two ministerial awards, and you even served as the music director of a CCTV show. Is there any connection between your art studies and achievements in the past and your growth as a "cross-cutting lawyer"?
Attorney Qiao Xiaosi
Artistic ability and aesthetic ability are complementary. In a broad sense, the ultimate goal of law is to make the society present goodness and let the public enjoy the sense of beauty. Please note that the law itself has a great aesthetic meaning of social aesthetics; in a narrow sense, such as music art, it pays attention to the rhythm, the influence of the rhythm and even the driving force. The emotions of the listener, when a lawyer is in a court debate, if he/she understands and can effectively master the rhythm of the debate and its rhythmic effects, this will not make him/herself passive. In litigation, it coincides with many theories in music. For example, litigation has its own specific steps and procedures. At the same time, there are also the rhythm and rules of litigation. Civil litigation has its specific steps and procedures, and criminal litigation has its own differences. The same litigation steps and procedures coincide with the logic of knowledge of harmony progression, musical structure, and rhythmic connection in music. Of course, when I first went to college, I chose to study music not to be a lawyer in the future. At that time, I just thought that "music can help the human soul to express well and express freely!"
Q:I heard that you have studied psychology very systematically and obtained the "National Psychological Counselor Professional Qualification". I feel that the industry span is very large. What is driving it? Is it no longer interested in the free expression of the soul?
Attorney Qiao Xiaosi
It is not that I am no longer interested in the free expression of the soul, but that I pay more attention to it. As I grow older and have more contact with all classes of society, I find more and more that it is always difficult to prevent the harm to myself caused by worries or feelings in life. This kind of harm is often profound, and it cannot be done by music alone. Completely relieved. I think maybe psychology can play an active role in this regard. Moreover, a psychological counselor who understands art and has a certain aesthetic knowledge will definitely bring more comfort to patients with mental illness, and it will be more conducive to giving people who are psychologically imbalanced with their human dignity.
Q:Did you later realize that putting psychology in legal practice, especially as a lawyer, will increase the intensity of humanistic care?
Attorney Qiao Xiaosi
Yes! There are a lot of knowledge and rules in the law, which are derived from psychology. For example, the deductive reasoning syllogism in "Jurisprudence", that is, the premise and the conclusion, this logical reasoning is derived from the ancient Greek philosopher Socrates’ "Midwives" Reasoning" is the same as many basic theories of psychology. In addition, mastering psychology helps a lawyer to understand the true psychological demands of both parties more accurately, which is very important for resolving legal disputes!
Q:From a musician to a lawyer, on the surface it is just a crossover, but in essence it is sublimation. From the initial hope that the soul is expressed freely, and sublimated to the consolation of paying attention to the human soul, and then from the consolation of the soul of individual life, to the legal intervention with the humanistic value of the entire society, we have both seen a kind of professional trajectory. The guidance of feelings also saw a kind of perseverance support for diligence. So what chance made you join JAVY Law Firm?
Attorney Qiao Xiaosi:
Choosing a law firm is a very important step in a lawyer's career. The law firm platform I am looking forward to can be summed up in eight words: vigor, affinity, knowledge, and humanity.
When participating in a lawyer cultural event organized by the Beijing Lawyers Association, I was fortunate to learn about JAVY Law Firm after being recommended by the leaders of the Beijing Lawyers Association. After a period of understanding and experience, I feel that JAVY Law Firm is fully in line with my expecting, so I came, and it turned out that this time I was right, God blessed me again!
Q:After these years of professional experience, what is your greatest gaining?
Attorney Qiao Xiaosi
The quality requirements of a lawyer should be a compound talent. It needs to strive for a broad knowledge, to have the courage to cross-border and to be good at cross-border wisdom, to be humble in the law, and to have universal feelings. When you put any party in the legal context to examine, you must first ask yourself-do you have enough intellectual capital to support a fair judgment of his/her correctness or mistakes, right and wrong? I think this is a lawyer who should always spur his/her heart, and ask his/her heart from time to time only by letting this sentence, so you can continue to learn, continue to sublimate, and continue to achieve.
