With a background in both solicitors' and barristers' practice and professional qualifications in mediation and arbitration, she became familiar with the trial procedures of the District Court through her work as a Deputy District Judge and Deputy Registrar of the High Court. The District Court deals with criminal cases of moderate seriousness and civil claims of moderate value and forms an important part of Hong Kong's court system.
