Dear Ying Wa Old Boys,

We are delighted to announce the launch of the YWCOBA Legal Chapter, dedicated to connecting and empowering old boys with experience or an interest in the legal profession.

The Legal Chapter extends a warm invitation to old boys worldwide, including members of the judiciary, barristers, solicitors, law costs draftsmen, law school staff, law students, and paralegals. It doesn’t matter if you are a recent graduate seeking industry peers, a mid-senior professional looking for insider advice, or a seasoned leader eager to give back – there will be value for all.

To join the YWCOBA Legal Chapter, we cordially invite you to complete the Google form provided in the link below https://forms.gle/aZBkxkC3kEkW9zdA7.

We also kindly request your assistance in spreading the word by forwarding this message to all old boys in the legal profession. Together, let’s strengthen our network and bring them back to our vibrant community.

We eagerly anticipate your participation in our social activities, seminars and events.

If you have any questions or suggestions, please feel free to reach out to Nicolas Chan (Class of 2002 F7), Leo Fong (Class of 2019 F6) or Maurice Yim (Class of 2021 F6) via email at legalchapter@ywcoba.com.

Warm regards,
