We are delighted to announce that our firm’s Partner Sherlynn Chan and Senior Associate Gordon Tsang have received Gold Awards in the Pro Bono Community Work Recognition Programme 2020. Organised by the Law Society of Hong Kong, the award aims to recognise and commend its members’ selfless contributions in pro bono services.
This is the first time for Sherlynn Chan to participate in the programme. She commented: “I am honoured to be recognised for my contribution to raising awareness on mental health, capacity and children issues in Hong Kong. I look forward to more collaboration with other NGOs and charitable organisations that have the same vision and passion in this area of work.”
Our senior associate, Gordon Tsang has been accorded with this accolade for 6 consecutive years, said “I am always passionate and enjoy the times in providing guidance to the youth.”
To receive the Gold award, a practitioner has to provide no less than 100 hours of pro bono professional volunteer services throughout the past year.
