樹仁手記:良師薰陶 深造法律

2021-02-05

今次小記邀請了丁美琳同學接受訪問,丁同學是香港樹仁大學法律及商業學系畢業年學生,她在學期間獲得良師薰陶,堅定了自己深造法律的信心。除了丁同學,還有她的導師陳家榮律師一同接受訪問。

丁同學坦言能遇見陳律師是她的運氣。

「我在大學攻讀法律及商業學位,其間參加了學校的良師益友計劃,陳律師是計劃的其中一名導師,非常幸運,我成了他的導生。」

陳律師你還記得當初認識丁同學的情境嗎?小記問。

「我參與仁大的良師益友計劃多年,美琳是我其中一個導生。我每次與她見面,她都會問我很多問題,她會預先把問題寫在紙上,逐一地問。我不嫌煩,反而我非常高興能指導一位這樣的學生。」

陳律師對你的印象很好呢!丁同學可以跟讀者分享陳律師如何啓發你嗎?

丁同學說:「陳律師是位執業律師,他的實務經驗很豐富,他的分享對我來說是非常寶貴。我們第一次與陳律師見面就是在中環與他共晉早餐。因為他很忙,所以只能在他上班前向他請教。儘管如此,他都很關心我們的近況和學業,而我亦會藉此機會向他求問。另外,我最記得我倆到沙田財務法院工作,我成為他的助手。對於一個學生來說,能夠上法庭擔任陳律師的助手是個無比珍貴的機會。雖然陳律師並無要求我擔任很多的工作,只是要求我事前準備好法律文件,我也做足了。可是我很緊張,我對法庭程序一無所知,擔心在法庭上幫倒忙。陳律師則鼓勵我,耐心教導我。我知道他希望我能透過觀察他在法庭的實際工作,了解真正的法庭。這確實提升了我對法律的興趣,亦堅定了我日後從事法律工作的信念。還有,即使如陳律師如此經驗豐富的律師,上庭時仍會作詳細的法律筆記,所以我勉勵自己要更加努力。」

小記藉機會問陳律師為何要當導師,要付出很多時間的啊。陳律師說這是情意結,自己當初也是受樹仁的薰陶,所以希望薪火相傳。原來陳律師也不是只說法律,還會分享法律知識外的事。

「我相信美琳將來會有一番的事業,因為她有熱誠而且好學。法律這個行業是需要累積經驗,另外,語言能力都很重要。若果她希望用自己的法律知識幫助有需要的人士,就要繼續求學,提升自己。另外,我希望年輕人在追求學業和事業時,要常常思考金錢以外的東西,這才會讓人生更有意義。」隔星期五見報

Congratulations to our graduate, Ester Ma, on the excellence award at Tencent

14 September 2020
 
Ester Ma, one of the Hong Kong Shue Yan University alumni, has recently obtained the “Personal Excellence Award of the Tencent Legal Department” (騰訊法務個人優秀獎) at Tencent. The Department of Law and Business takes this opportunity to congratulate her on her outstanding personal achievement.
 
As we all know, Tencent is one of the four largest Internet companies in the world. Every year, it attracts graduates from universities around the world to join the company. After graduating from the Department of Law and Business in 2014, Ester has worked for different companies before she recently joined the Legal Department (Data and Privacy Protection Center) of Tencent as a legal assistant. The Tencent legal department has been hailed as the “Asia’s No. 1 Legal Affairs Team” and Ester’s duties and responsibilities at this department are to handle various assistance requests from users all over the world, including companies, law enforcement officers, or government agencies. Moreover, Ester is responsible for maintaining different language texts of the Tencent privacy policy. Recently, she has been involved in helping Tencent to choose the best among many language service providers for the translation of the policy that used to be outsourced to law firms. This has helped Tencent to save almost 50% of translation costs. Ester’s initiative to help solve the high translation costs therefore won her this award. 
 
Congratulations again on Ester’s achievement and we wish you a brighter and promising future at Tencent.
