Camille Lee

Legal Assistant

I joined MinterEllison in 2022 as a Trainee Solicitor. After completing my seats with the Corporate and Intellectual Property Departments, I am currently in my final rotation, working across both the Dispute Resolution and Infrastructure, Construction, and Projects Departments.

Prior to joining MinterEllison, I completed a double degree in Law and Business Administration (majoring in marketing) at the University of Hong Kong. I had volunteering experiences working with my university’s legal clinic and NGOs to promote access to justice for migrant domestic workers.

I am fluent in English, Cantonese and Mandarin.
