Speaker's Bio:
Lewis was admitted to the Hong Kong Bar in 2005 through the Department of Justice (DoJ)’s Legal Trainee Scheme. After qualification, he worked briefly with the Hong Kong Sub-Office of the United Nation High Commissioner for Refugees, and for around 9 years with the Civil Litigation Unit of DoJ. His practice profile with these organizations was public law-focused, but he also took up cases concerning professional misconduct, medical negligence, and personal injuries, etc in DoJ. 

Lewis left DoJ and joined the private Bar in 2015. He has since developed a broad civil practice including corporate/commercial, property dispute, defamation, personal injuries, and construction, etc. He was junior counsel for the Director of Water Supplies in the inquiry concerning excess lead found in drinking water. He still maintains a public law practice through acting for different parties in judicial reviews, election matters, and the like. He regularly appears in different tribunals as chairman, legal adviser, or counsel for parties.

As an alumnus of Ricci Hall HKU, Lewis is deeply affected by the hall motto of “as much as you are able, that you should dare to do”. He served as a committee member of its Old Boys Association from 2018 to 2021. Lewis is serving as the President of the Rotary Club of Hong Kong North in 2022-2023 and taking up part-time teaching at the City University of Hong Kong.
