Why I Defend Notorious Criminals For Free ft. Josephus Tan | Aiken Chia

Описание: I speak to one of the Singapore's best criminal defense lawyers - Josephus Tan to pick his brain on his approach to defending some of the most notorious criminals in Singapore. He shares the riveting story of how he had lost almost everything in life before the birth of his now incredibly successful, Invictus Law Corporation and how and why he continues to defend some of the most heinous criminals pro-bono.

"Conviction. Courage. Compassion." is the philosophy behind his work and life and his story is jaw-droppingly dramatic as it is inspiring!
