Mr Low Chun Yee was assigned to me through CLAS. He is a very confident lawyer and he gives excellent advises through his experiences as a ex-prosecutor and a lawyer. He does his job professionally, and he is definitely a lawyer that you can rely on. I have recommended him a Friend of mine, and will definitely continue to do so.
Thank you Mr Low!
I met Mr. Low when I had a case and I applied for the legal aid, and Mr. Low took my case with no fee. I’m very thankful that Mr. Low was willing to help me with the case. Mr. Low is a very professional and good lawyer, he explained my situation very clear, he supported me during the trial, and he helped me to get the lowest possible punishment from the court. I’m really thankful to meet Mr. Low and for everything he has done to help others in the process of lawsuit. God bless.
Mr Low Chun Yee was assigned to my family as the pro-bono lawyer through Criminal Legal Aid Scheme.
Even though we were receiving free legal advice through CLAS; Mr Low was at all times professional, proactive, efficient and most importantly, relatable. He was able to explain all matters, however trivial, to us in a friendly manner that was easy for an elderly person to understand. I will not hesitate to recommend Mr Low to anyone who seeks legal help.
