Looking around the world, there are signs of scales on the buildings of almost every court. It represents justice and justice. In the court, the nobility and ugliness of human nature, courage and fear, and the entanglement of various concepts can not be concealed and can not be displayed in a false way; And in the fierce court debate, the brilliance of wisdom was shining everywhere.
Lawyers, on the other hand, are "balance weights" designed for the legal system. Their professional connotation is rich, integrating social morality, legal wisdom, business operation, culture and art, and philosophical temperament.
On the afternoon of February 5, 2021, the final of Tongfang eight minute speech contest was successfully held in the youth innovation space on the 43rd floor of Liaoning Tongfang law firm. After the fierce competition in the preliminary competition from January 25 to 27, 10 young lawyers emerged and participated in the final.

It requires everyone to express their attitude with the development of the times from the perspective of lawyers, based on the reality of lawyers' practice, and with the original intention of being a lawyer in those years. While encouraging young lawyers to exercise their ability of expression, we also hope that young lawyers will establish a sense of respect for the law and their own sense of mission, never forget their original intention, adhere to justice, and wake up more people's deep thinking on legal construction and firm faith in the innovation of the times!

The core concept of law is fairness and justice. I believe that every person who chooses law as his profession has such a balance in his mind: distributive justice, corrective justice, exchange justice and return justice. From natural human rights to natural equality, justice is reflected in the fair rules refined by law. However, the procedural justice embodied in the rules may sometimes lead to the results that do not seem to conform to social morality. Therefore, judges must seek not only "fair" but also "reasonable" results in the process of discretion and lawyers' representation.
Young lawyers are an important force and main force for the development of law firms. In the future, Tongfang law firm will strive to build a stage for the growth of young lawyers and actively guide the rapid growth of young lawyers.
