蕭震然大律師俾香港大律師公會釘牌45個月 - Hong Kong Barrister Devin Sio Convicted of Misconduct and Suspended for 45 Months!

前青年民建聯副主席、「熊貓大狀」大律師蕭震然，早前處理一宗民事索償案，被投訴專業失當，又涉於另一事件接受紀律聆訊時提供假資料。據悉，大律師公會經調查後，周五（18 日）向會員發信，指蕭面對的 3 項投訴全部成立，被罰停牌共 45 個月，另須賠償當事人、繳罰款及聆訊費合共接近 45 萬元。信中提及，蕭震然的專業失當，對程序公義有不利影響，另批評他在聆訊中提供不實資訊，以誤導他所屬的專業組織，是在玩「貓戲老鼠」的把戲（playing cat-and-mouse）。

該 3 項對蕭震然的投訴分別為：

（一）蕭在一宗 2017 年民事索償案中，代表原告人時專業失當；
（二）蕭 2016 年時，以專業身分造訪某律師家中就案件開會，而非辦公室；
（三）蕭 2020 年接受紀律審裁組聆訊時提供失實資料。

大律師公會將投訴轉介大律師紀律審裁組進行研訊。據了解，審裁組審議後，裁定 3 項對蕭的投訴均成立，並就首項投訴判蕭停牌 30 個月，須於 120 天內向原告賠償 39,500 元，亦即原告聘請他的律師費；就次項投訴，對蕭予以譴責，他須於 120 天內就違例罰款 2,500 元；至於第 3 項投訴，則罰停牌 15 個月，與首項投訴分期執行。此外，蕭須向大律師公會繳聆訊費約 406,800 元。

蕭對第一項投訴作出求情，指他失去所有工作委託、陷經濟困難，現靠家人財政支援維生，望給予他較長時間繳款。其餘兩投訴則沒求情。審裁組批蕭就另外兩項投訴，沒歉意或悔意，也沒表示將來如何不會重複犯錯。
