eLawyer in Legal Career Fair 2008

What a fabulous weekend it was! After some weeks of preparation, we finally got to exhibit in the Legal Career Fair organized by KL Bar.

We are really happy with the outcome of the event. It followed hot on the heels of our UM (University Malaya) campaign which was held on the same week! More on this in the next post.

The Legal Career Fair kicked off at 10am. eLawyer team was at the Legend Hotel 8.30am to setup. Most firms were there already with half completed booths, while we were still waiting for the Hotel to gather some tables for us. Next came the projector setup.

Since we are “e” Lawyer, it makes sense to have an Internet connection too. Off we went to the Business Centre to buy an 8 hour WiFi access package for RM50…Wow they must be making loads on this! But it turned out that the expensive Internet connection was pretty hopeless and dropped out every 2 minutes. Just as well we had a local server prepared to display our website. (more…)



Legal Career Fair 2008 - Law Jobs, anyone?

This is the FIRST in the history of legal industry in Malaysia.

KL Bar Committee is organising the ever first Legal Career Fair on this Saturday (12.1.2008) at the Grand Ballroom of Legend Hotel. The Career Fair will go from 10.30am to 3.30pm and is an ideal platform for lawyers and law students to meet law firms and get to know more about jobs currently offered in the marketplace and the working environment of the respective law firms.

Based on the website of KL Bar Committee, the organiser said the reason they took the initiative to organise such an event was because of frequent complaints from their members that it is rather hard to recruit lawyers nowadays.

First Law Blog Forum in Malaysia

LAWYERS, STUDENTS, ACADEMICS, ANYONE IN THE LAW PROFESSION …… THIS IS FOR YOU!

Welcome to eLawyer’s Blog Forum.

After scoring a first in December 2007 with the launch of Malaysia’s first privately-owned law portal, eLawyer is at it again……. this time with the launch of the first Law Blog Forum in Malaysia!

One thing leads to another really. When elawyer.com.my was setup, we had no idea that we will be doing a blog forum for our website.

We would like to thank Richard Tan for some really great ideas that has led to this. Richard is an intern from University Malaya, undertaking his final year of law studies in 2008. We have had the privilege to work with him, listen to his feedback on eLawyer and learning how we can be a part of the law community on campus.
