Hong Kong, 27 January 2022: Boase Cohen & Collins’ proud tradition of nurturing homegrown legal talent continues with Jennifer Lee and Angie Liu becoming the latest members of our legal team to be admitted as solicitors.
Work colleagues, family members and friends were present at the High Court to see the pair formally admitted, the culmination of years of law studies and a two-year traineeship with the firm.
“Many congratulations to Jennifer and Angie, they are excellent young legal professionals who are destined for outstanding careers. Their progress underscores our commitment to developing homegrown talent and offering young lawyers a clear career path,” said BC&C Senior Partner Colin Cohen.
