We are delighted to share that Michelle, formerly a trainee solicitor at Payne Velasco, has been officially admitted as a Solicitor by the High Court of Hong Kong. This marks a significant milestone in her legal career, and we could not be prouder of her achievement.
The admission took place on 18 January 2025 at 11:05 am, presided over by the Honourable Mr Justice Harris (Admission Case Number: HCMP 2503 of 2024).
Jaerey Velasco, Partner at Payne Velasco and Michelle’s Principal during her traineeship, had the privilege of moving her admission—a testament to their collaborative journey from mentorship to shared success.
Michelle’s reflection on the occasion speaks volumes:
“This is a moment that I have thought about for many years. I am so grateful for the journey that has brought me to this milestone. A very special thank you to Jaerey Velasco for her valuable guidance and support throughout this journey. Grateful to my colleagues at Payne Velasco as well for their continued support!”
Join us in applauding Michelle’s achievement and the bright path ahead. Here’s to many more milestones!
