Ding shared his experience over the years and the journey he started as a young lawyer. He emphasised the importance of employment law, quoting, “Within the confines of the hashtag#workplace, employment law is no longer just a framework of hashtag#rights and hashtag#obligations but blends complex considerations between individuals and organisations, between justice and compassion, and between normative and descriptive values.”
Ashurst also expressed optimism about the new appointment: “Clarence joins us as a partner, bringing over 15 years’ experience advising on the full spectrum of employment law, with a standout track record in contentious separations, restrictive covenants, and high-stakes investigations.”
