We are delighted to share with you that Tin-Lok Shea has been made Partner effective 8 December 2023.
Tin-Lok began his journey with us during his law school days. His fluency in Japanese, as well as his innate understanding of both Australian and Japanese ways of conducting business and applying the law, has made him a valuable member of our firm.
After graduating, Tin-Lok began his professional career at KPMG specialising in corporate tax for about 6 years. He then made a move to Deloitte advising clients in state taxes and FIRB matters. He was promoted to Account Director within 4 years there before making a big decision to return to H&H Lawyers in 2017.
We are grateful for his return as our firm and clients have immediately reaped the benefits of his skills and knowledge. He quickly made great contributions, looking after our clients in all facets of their legal needs. Tin-Lok’s legal expertise, especially in corporate and commercial matters, is second to none. He is in high demand for his calm yet determined approach in a number of litigious matters.
One of Tin-Lok’s long-term clients sent us this meaningful message on his promotion to Partner:
“Congratulations to Tin-Lok on his promotion to partner. He has been of enormous support to Kumon Australia for many years now, so much so, that we consider him a part of our team. We have been guided by his sage and expert advice on a wide range of matters. He provides thorough service and demonstrates genuine care and interest in our business. He is deserving of his success. We look forward to his ongoing support.”
Being able to speak fluent Japanese has also been a great asset of Tin-Lok. He represents many Japanese corporate clients and advises them on setting up and operating their businesses in Australia. We look forward to witnessing Tin-Lok further cultivate our firm’s Japanese practice as he works closely with Mr Hayashi and the Japanese team. Tin-Lok’s temperament and meticulousness in his legal work also make him a popular senior lawyer and mentor in our firm. He has been instrumental in developing and helping our junior lawyers and staff achieve their potential.
We wholeheartedly congratulate Tin-Lok on this well-earned promotion and look forward to his ongoing leadership in our corporate and commercial team and Japanese practice.
