No one understands or defines the history of Tibetan lawyers better than Yangjen.
Yangjen, who chose to major in law at college because the judicial staff's uniforms "looked so cool", became Tibet's first female lawyer when she joined the region's first law practice when it was founded in 1985.
She opened Tibet's first collective law firm in 1993 and now runs the biggest law firm in the region.
