An individual, Lin Pei-jing, who falsely claimed to be a qualified lawyer with prestigious credentials including roles as legal counsel for politicians such as Huang Wei-cher and former Vice President Annette Lu while serving as a legislator, has been exposed as an unlicensed lawyer. Lin allegedly took on legal cases illegally, wrote legal documents for clients but did not appear in court, and profited illicitly by over a hundred thousand dollars. Prosecutors have launched an investigation on charges of fraud and violating lawyer regulations, issuing searches and summonses for Lin and witnesses involved. Lin faces accusations of exploiting people seeking legal assistance by falsely representing herself as a licensed lawyer, amassing unlawful profits through deceit and evasion.
