Raising The Bar(2015)

Raising the Bar follows a group of barristers and trainee lawyers as they navigate the demanding path to becoming qualified legal practitioners. Mentored by the respected barrister Fan Chi Ngai and his wife Cheung Wai Wan, three standout trainees—Tong Ching Chi, Fok Chi Ying, and Chow Chi Pok—must balance idealism with the harsh realities of the courtroom. As they tackle complex cases, each rookie discovers their own approach to pursuing justice, encountering both triumphs and setbacks along the way. Beyond the courtroom, they grapple with personal struggles: romantic entanglements, family pressures, and tests of friendship. The series explores how these aspiring lawyers reconcile their principles with professional ethics when legal standards conflict with their personal values, forcing them to make difficult choices about their futures and what justice truly means.
